Sue, You're of course entitled to think what you want to think. However, as someone who posts on various lists and then says "go look at my blog" (at least in my sig), I can assure you that vanity has nothing to do with it. My blog is a marketing device, pure and simple. It costs nothing (as opposed to the thousands of dollars a year I was spending on Google AdWords), and it's an effective way to attract clients to my business Web site.
