This should go without saying, but David Sifry, the chief executive at Technorati understands blogging.  The more amazing story is his participation in the conversation be it large or small.  I recently discussed earning money with blogs at the Blogger For Hire blog.  In the post I talk about a Washington Post article that quotes [...]
