DS: What compelled you to start blogging?

I am a compulsive writer.  And I read a lot of blogs and knew I could write at least that well.  My goal was 100 readers weekly, and my faithful few have blown that out of the water.

DS: How would you describe the purpose of your blog(s)?

Except for GiMP University, all of my blogs talk about the Christian faith.  GiMP University is a blog about the most incredible free software in the world.

DS: What unique responsibilities do you think Christian bloggers have?

Some reference to Scripture which shows that they are actual Christians.

Some evidence of a Christian walk, including church attendance and some kind of accountability.

DS: What are your own favorite blogs or news sites?

Drudge. TeamPyro. 22 Words. Blog & Mablog.

DS: How would you be spending your extra time, if you didn’t blog?

Heh.  I’d be journalling and surfing the web.
