It Starts Today!
As you likely already know, we now have a Consistency Achievement for blogging which you can check on by going to your Achievement Page. I'm already listed for this first day towards my blogging badge, but it's for commenting, not for blogging. Yes you get the badge for writing blog entries or commenting on them.

I would prefer to get the badge for actually writing an entry and not from just commenting, so I thought I better hustle my butt over here and write something. But, I also believe that getting the badge for commenting is also a nice reward to motivate others to leave comments. Also, I know how easily one can get behind in bliting (blog-writing), seeing how this cold has kept me from making any entries for a few days now, we can maintain the streak by leaving a comment as well as by bliting.

I'm sure some will cheat and just drop a few words either in their blog or in a comment, similarly to how they post the day in the Newsfeed just to get the consistency badge. But, for us who actually write something, or leave a "real" comment, the reward is in knowing the badges are earned.
