What makes a good TheoloBlog?

Do you ever get frustrated as a theologian who blogs? I do (if I can call myself synonymously a theologian and a blogger). Do you know why? Because as a third-year university graduate you have no chance of being respected in the theology blogging circles. When you are competing with Masters, PhD, Post-grad researchers and even lecturers you have no chance. Why? Because why listen to me over someone who has proved there academy prowess within the academy? Who am I to raise my voice?

So my question to you is this... Is there a place for undergrads in the theology blogging circles and, if so, why are undergrads not encouraged to blog more by those more experienced theologians? Should I care? I think so. I try to add my two cents to the whole TheoloBlog circle in an original and sometimes humourous way. That doesn't make me more deserving of airtime - but I don't even get critiqued at the best of times.

What is this? A rant? Hot air? Nah... A plea! What do you think blogging about theology should look like? And who should do it?
