Since early 2008
What blogging platform do you use? (WordPress, TypePad, Movable Type, etc)?
Blogger
Do you blog for business? for pleasure?
I like to blog about photography and photographic techniques. When I started out blogging there were only a handful of useful blogs in regards to photography on the internet. So I originally wanted to share my photographic experiences but it led in to doing reviews and how-to’s. I also use my blog to promote various seminars I may be doing.
How does your blog help the local blogging community?
I hope my blog will help others to see the wisdom and fulfillment of sharing their experiences with others. You can learn something from everybody if you just take the time to look.
What are your hobbies and interests?
Photography is my main passion, but I also enjoy the outdoors and spending time with family and friends.
What do you do when you are not writing online?
There is very seldom a day goes by that I don’t have my camera in hand. I shoot constantly and continuously seek to better my own craft. “I’m on photo safari, always looking for the best shot I can find.”

5ish years
What blogging platform do you use? (WordPress, TypePad, Movable Type, etc)?

Do you blog for business? for pleasure?
Pleasure.
How does your blog help the local blogging community?
I provide information about the local farmers market and community supported agriculture (CSA) scene. I try to stay up-to-date about new organizations and events in the local organic farming scene.
I also write about seasonal food, how to prepare and store it. When we first became CSA members, I was quite overwhelmed with the (to us) unfamiliar vegetables and how to use them. Over the years, it has become second nature to develop our weekly menu based on what I know will be available seasonally. With that in mind, I include my family’s favorite recipes to help out other overwhelmed cooks.
What are your hobbies and interests?
Gardening, canning, hiking, knitting, cooking, soap and candle making… I have a lot of interests.
What do you do when you are not writing online?
I am a computer programmer by profession. Since my nearly 5yo daughter was born, I have chosen to stay home with her. I occasionally pick up part time IT contracting jobs for local businesses.

Where you live?
I was born, raised and continue to live in Southwest Louisville.
How long have you been blogging?
I have been blogging for 2 years, but have been participating in irrelevant and sometimes heated local political discussions on the internet since 1997.
What blogging platform do you use? (WordPress, TypePad, Movable Type, etc)?
I use Blogger
Do you blog for business? for pleasure?
I blog for pleasure. It is a real joy to help inform residents of neighborhood events. Knowledgeable people are free people.
How does your blog help the local blogging community?
I think by sticking to local neighborhood issues, small blogs like mine not only help the people in the area, but also put a better face on our end of town. Bloggers in SW Louisville work together on issues and discuss how best to stay united in this era of political discord and partisanship.
What are your hobbies and interests?
Hobbies include: News gathering, debate, government, public service, trade unions, activism, beaches, camping and music.
What do you do when you are not writing online?
When not writing online, you can find me assembling GE washing machines.
