Thanks to Scott Karp of Publishing 2.0 for finding the key point in a new Pew Internet report on blogging: 7% of bloggers want to make money with their blogs. Fancy that eh?

Well, Some how I feel that it is easier to earn through one blog...although I am new in blogging and I am learning things, but still I feel that the site with more and more content will certainly be getting more traffic, however there are other uses of different blog...but still my idea is to keep one or two blogs only...maybe this theory of mine will change soon :p
