I thought maybe there was another business related reason aside from staying connected to customers & potential customers. Judging by your email, you just seemed a bit stressed because you had too much on your plate. That happens to everyone but your point about how inspiration can't be forced is a good one. btw, i changed my nickname here because I don't want to appear to be a shill for Skype. :) I see.

WRT "why you [do you] feel that it’s so necessary to maintain an active blog. Most of the blog entries here are interesting but do you think they’re vital to your business?" I think the belief that we should blog everyday is why we do it. It keeps us in touch with people like yourself and makes us stop to think about what's going on. I don't think it's “vital”, but I do think it is one of the intangibles in the way we run our business and it’s important to us. Levi wrote a rather <a href=”http://www.freshbooks.com/blog/2006/12/19/business-intangibles-timberland-and-american-apparel/” rel="nofollow"> inspired post about intangibles</a> yesterday. Beyond that, I'm not sure why we blog, and I’m alright with that...
