This is my future...

Well, a girl can dream, right?
This article on Perez Hilton, a famous blogger who owns www.perezhilton.com is rather interesting. Bitch writes 30 posts a day! That might be a little aggressive for me but I can try (sigh).
Anyway, I'll have my own agent in 6 months, tops (kidding, kidding).
"He starts work around 6:30 a.m., sometimes posting 30 times a day, a far more prodigious output than many fully staffed sites. By sheer energy and personality, his site and he are rapidly evolving into a brand. He is in demand by radio and TV outlets as a celebrity commentator. He recently taught a Learning Annex class, ‘How to Blog Your Way to Fame and Fortune.’ (‘I inspired myself!’ he said.)
Collaborating with the production company World of Wonder, Hilton will star in his own reality show. He is the subject of a four-page layout in December's GQ, will co-host MTV's New Year's Eve special, will appear on the cover of the Advocate next month and was just named to a list of 25 powerful Latinos by the New York Post, which sued him in May 2005 for trademark dilution, among other things, prompting him to rechristen his original website, Pagesixsixsix (it's now called perezhilton .com). ‘I guess they didn't find the name funny,’ said Hilton.
Hilton is also smart enough to know that his current good fortune could be fleeting and is working 19 hours a day to make sure it stays. After all, it was only last year that this lower-middle-class, Jesuit-schooled kid from Miami was unemployed, $60,000 in debt, in bankruptcy and deeply depressed. Today, he said, he earns six figures. He has agents, a lawyer, a manager and a public that, despite its craving for the content he provides, can be vicious toward him in comments on his site. Which he loves. ‘Every time they leave a comment, it's a page view,’ he said. ‘I'm laughing all the way to the bank.’"
