If you know how About.com started, you would see that we're building our blog network with a similar grass roots foundation. I remember meeting with some of the early about.com members/founders and was very intrigued with their concept, but was too busy working on my mainstream site. But one key thing I remember is that everyone involved in the beginning enjoyed the traffic/revenue share etc, and possibly stock options down the road.

If you're not sure how this connects to blogs, look deeper.
