The name is sort of joke... the Ask Engadget and Ask Autoblog format has done really well. The readers love it, so I figured why not answer the questions that people ask me in a public forum. I mean, you understand that the topic of my personal blog is Weblogs, Inc. right? People are not going to my blog to read about anything but Weblogs, Inc! The 5-10,000 folks who come every really enjoy disucssing our business and what we're learning from running it, and I enjoy sharing our progress with them.
