Totten More Than Breaks Even on Iraq Trip

Great news that blogging can pay at least a bit.

Michael Totten :I decided to try a little experiment. Instead of lining up an assignment from an editor to cover Northern Iraqi Kurdistan, I struck out on my own without asking permission from anyone. Almost all my material was posted directly to this Web site. I wanted to see if the amount of money I can raise from readers competes with the industryÂ’s going rate.
It does.
My paltry sum added to your paltry sums add up!

1 Blogging doesn't necessarily pay. However, excellent blogging can pay. Totten's posting are an example of excellent blogging, which is more like what journalists should be doing than anything else. Ditto for Bill Roggio, Austin Bay, and others who have taken blogging to the next level.
