Blogging and Fame

I thought this was interesting ... the New York Times is running a story titled Sex, Drugs and Updating Your Blog .

It's about Jonathan Coulton, the singer/songwriter who quit his day job to attempt the challenge of writing and singing a song online every week.

They're saying that these days he makes between 3000 and 5000usd per month and spends up to 6 hours per day, interacting with some of the 3000 people who visit his website daily, in between writing and performing.

This all sounds well and good, Di, but I'm VERY CONCERNED he doesn't have a REAL job and is spending so much time on the computer. ; )

I want a 'real job' like that ...
