Am I a pro blogger? All signs point to 'no'

I'm not a professional blogger. It would be nice, but with my plodding pace of posting (and the miserable income I get from ads — been on AdSense since 2007 and still haven't made even $10) it's not happening.

I've thought up a plan to keep posting useful stuff here. Week and a half later, it's already blown to pieces, although I hope to recover it. I don't have any goals for the blog, as so many pro blogger sites suggest I should. Really, much of my posting has been whenever something interested me enough to make me bang at the keyboard for twenty, thirty minutes. So yeah, I'm not a pro blogger.

But I am interesting, and thought-provoking, or I wouldn't have any readers at all.

So I want to know: Why do you read my blog? What value do you get from it and what suggestions do you have to make it more valuable to you? While I'm not aiming to be the next big pro blogger, I do like to share ideas and spread them around. And I can't do that effectively here without having a clearer idea of what you want to see.

In the future I'll probably be blogging more about my projects, and less about my personal life (I've created a private, personal blog with Live Spaces for that). As well, anything interesting on social media that I want to expound upon shall still be found here.

Speaking of projects, I have some work to do, don't I?
