I think maybe my blog is an “entertainment” blog. Bloggers are always getting the question, “What kind of blog do you write?” Business, personal, technoid, porno — permissible answers vary and I’m always caught up short because I dump all my slop in this one bucket making it a blog of bloggacious bloggitude, but not a blog of any particular color. In fact, my blog is that muddy greenish brown swamp bottom color you get by mixing all the crayons in the box together.

I went over to Judith Meskill’s place to see if I could cash in on the Calacanis money machine. It wasn’t easy to find her, but I kept looking. I’d be willing to tip a few thousand words a month their way at a buck or two a word. Haven’t heard back, and maybe that’s because I had such a hard time qualifying my blog generically.

“It’s the great American blog!” That’s what I wanted to say. It’s rock n roll. It’s the internecks. It’s the mountains and the prairies from sea to fucking sea. But they didn’t have those categories.

So I looked for other revenue models. Weblogs Inc. seems kinda desperate anyway, sort of an AOL of blogging… plenty of huge and not much soul. About the only thing out there that appealed to me at this point was the Head Lemur’s pay for play plan.

Anyway, it’s good to have the genre thing settled… to know that I’m writing an entertainment blog. They pay for entertainment, don’t they?
