I've been doing this as a somewhat regularly updated blog for just over half a year now, and the results have been extremely satisfying: I get about ~2500 direct unique visitors on an average day (increasing 2-6x when something ends up being a meme-of-the-day on sites like Reddit or Digg, and of course many read via aggregators), search engine referrals are up to 200 or so a day, and viewing the "who's on" list is a laundry list of influential corporations and locations across the globe.

It does feed my ego a little bit seeing visitors from various governments, the CIA, nuclear research labs, just about every large financial company, and visitors from every end of the globe. My numbers aren't huge, but it's a perfect composite of influential and knowledgeable readers.

The most popular entries thus far are as follows (I'm providing the static version links where possible):

Effectively Integrating Into Software Development Teams
Optimal Software Development Processes and Practices
Spelling Matters
Everyone Is Above Average - The Overpopulated Top 2%

I've tried to minimize the number of entries (outside of the personal category, though this anniversary one being an exception) to keep the noise as low as possible -- if you're using a reader it won't constantly pretend there's new content when I'm just adding a peanut gallery comment about someone else's blog -- though on the flip side that means that I've delayed various .NET and SQL entries until they're "perfect". 

Perhaps I might have to find a compromise somewhere in between.
