Blog yourself up

There is an interesting article in this month's issue of Journalist, the NUJ (National Union of Journalists) magazine. Written by Graham Holliday he explained that his blog has brought him a number of commisions.
The article went on to state that many UK journalists are yet to realise the potential of a blog.

I took an unscientific survey of the 500-plus members of the www.freelancejournalism.com email discussion list. Only 12 admitted to writing a blog.

This is amazing when one of the Guardian's top editors recently said that she would not hire anyone who did not keep a blog. This is clearly the way forward.
