It's funny how often now people say "write blog" in context of working: "sit, code, write blog, read blogs". I would even say that "twittering" on a regular basis feels almost like a job for many.
The word "blog" has completely lost its original meaning. In fact there aren't any real blogs left anymore. Most of them are more like expanded resumes (programmers acting smart) or nothing but souped-up press-releases (corporate "blogs") or sales pitches mixed with recruiting efforts (guys like joel).
Are you sure you write a blog? Does it have anything not related to work? Like real topics we all think about and discuss in a public setting: like jokes, sex, politics, sports? If not, it's not a blog, it's your personal PR outlet where you're simply selling yourself.

Sorry for ranting. :-)
