The beginning was oh so simple! One fine morning, a he (or a she) woke up thinking it would be really cool to post a diary online, rather than just type in Word and Print it.

Some of the users thought it would be interesting to read what goes through someone's mind (a sort of Big Brother, but more perverted than the real thing) and they told their friends, who told their friends and so on... And after that, an user must have asked himself/herself: "Hey, I myself have strong opinions and I know lots of stuff! Why shouldn't I write my own online diary?" And before you know it, there were 80,000 blogs every 24 hours.

Some of them are specialized on certain domains, while others are simple stories, but the online companies, always sniffing profits, acknowledged the potential and started to give bloggers the necessary means to express themselves. And so came along results, such as Blogger, My Space or Yahoo 360.

And naturally the blogs started to sell, as they reached a certain maturity.
AOL has just bought Weblogs Inc. and other acquisitions are likely to follow. In addition, we have recently informed you that a blogger can make even up to $15,000 a month...

So if you feel like making some money on the Internet, perhaps it would be time for you to consider writing your own blog, or even two or more. If you are determined to do a great job, perhaps somebody might show some interest in buying them in a couple of years... one can never know!
