Blogger Interviews's podcast

Blogger Interviews Podcast Show showcases well know, up and coming, and some you’ve never heard of “bloggers” and delves into things like why they blog, what they get from it, do they enjoy it, do they have bad blogging days, do they consider blogging work or fun! We also get a chance to hear their thoughts on blogging in general, where our online blogging community is going, if it has room for improvement and so on. Bloggers will share with you their journey and their highs and lows, and will no doubt discuss things you’ve often wondered yourself. Whether the bloggers has a blogspot blog, a Wordpress them, or Typepad platform, Bloggers Interviews Podcast Show is interested in what they have to discuss.
