In the interview, Diane asked:

What do you believe you have accomplished by blogging?

And you responded:

Blogging brought me Fortune 100 clients including IBM and Cendant, abundant speaking and consulting opportunities, and a global network of extraordinarily smart and interesting bloggers.

To me, that hammers home the value of blogging to anyone wondering whether it's worthwhile. You can get business from it. Blogging isn't easy and there are good and bad ways of going about it (like anything else) but it's a new vehicle businesses (small and large) and consultants can use that can directly result in more clients.

The network of interesting people is nothing to shake a stick at either, since opportunities come from networking. But being able to say, "I got X client because of my blog," is amazing.
