Draft: Blogger Classification Taxonomy

I was talking with a fellow blogger the other day. At one point in our conversation after listehe offered up reasoning for his use of WordPress installed on his paid web host as opposed to a service like Blogger. I got to thinking... People tend to like labels to classify/order things. Would it be handy to have a few labels for the type of blogger you are? I was thinking it might be so here's a draft list.

Indie blogger - One who blogs via WordPress or similar app running on a paid web hosting account.

Sponsored blogger - One who blogs on a service like Blogger, WordPress that is hosted by a commercial interest and under the terms of service requires an ad, graphic, link, chicklet or other exposure.

Corporate blogger - One who blogs via a company installed blog or paid host plan.

If you have further thoughts on this leave them in the comments below. Thanks for stopping by.
