1. My hobby, or my favorite thing to do is telemark ski. It is entertaining, and keeps me in shape during the winter when it is usually cold outside. I started it a year ago from spring break, and it has really caught my attention. My dad tele skis too so I think that is part of the reason why I like it; it keeps us closer becuase we share something in common.
2. There is The Backcountry Skiing Blog, and on there various companies, and people post videos about their products and their lives. For example a company that makes ski equiptment called Black Diamond posted a video, and in the video they showed their new product. People from different shops also post about new products. For example a guy that works at a ski shop posted about a new line of Tecnica Ski Boots.He described the product, posted a picture, and told his opinion of the product, and below people commented on it. There are links at the top of the blog to different stores that make ski gear like: Backcountry.com, Garmont, BCA (backcountry access), etc. These links are appealing to people and therefore when they see them they are tempted to click on them. When there are links that means the companies are promoting their products. It is a good idea to have the links at the top of the page to help the bloggers be able to see them right when they go onto the sight. Having the links on a blog like this also helps people be able to look at the products that people are blogging and taking videos about. http://www.wildsnow.com/ 
3. I could see myself blogging about skiing as well. I could see myself doing reviews and blog posts about the different mountains that I have been to. I also could see myself posting about my experiences at these mountains, and what the best parts of the mountain are for beginners, intermidiates, and expert skiers. I would put up a trail map of the mountain, and I would include some personal pictures, and then I would blog below the picture so the people would know what I am talking about. I like personal blogs becuase I think they are more interesting, so I would consider doing one of my life as a telemark skier at mountains all over the world. :)
