How do you blog?

A nurse writing a paper for school focusing on the value of blogs for advanced practice nurses asked me the questions listed below. It would be great if you can post your own answers in the comment section below.

How many blog post do read a week?

The blog posts and news items from the RSS feeds are about 2,000-3,000 per day = 20,000 per week.

You read blog posts about?

The big five among the general medical journals (NEJM, JAMA, Lancet, BMJ, Annals of Int Medicine) plus 10 allergy journals, plus Medscape, Reuters Health and WebMD.

How many new topics do you personally post under each sub heading, i.e. Endocrine, Cardiac, etc each week?

1-2 blog posts per day, for example, cardiac topics once a week, endocrine topics once a month.
