I regularly get the "why do you blog" question. I also regularly get "thank you for blogging" notes (thank you for the thank you notes.)
I’m a fan on Andrew Sullivan – he has a magnificent article in The Atlantic titled Why I Blog. He nails it.
Thanks for the link Dave.

I linked to this essay by Sullivan on Saturday. It's a great piece (Sullivan is always worth reading) but as Scott Rosenberg noted on his blog Sullivan is coming at it as a trained print journalist turned paid full time blogger. There are many ways to blog and many types of blogs and Sullivan's prolific daily bursts is just one form.
