warning computer Report shows that there are increasing number of bloggers worldwide. Many full time pro-bloggers work under great physical and emotional stress. Constant news and comment demands is one of the main cause. Also, they wonder if something has gone very wrong when they are sleeping.

According to New York Times, two among the successful pro-bloggers have died suddenly in past few months.

Two weeks ago in North Lauderdale, Fla., funeral services were held for Russell Shaw, a prolific blogger on technology subjects who died at 60 of a heart attack. In December, another tech blogger, Marc Orchant, died at 50 of a massive coronary. A third, Om Malik, 41, survived a heart attack in December.

Other bloggers complain of weight loss or gain, sleep disorders, exhaustion and other maladies born of the nonstop strain of producing for a news and information cycle that is as always-on as the Internet.

The 3 successful bloggers above have few similarities:

They are successful pro-blogger in main news stream

They are technology bloggers

All happen almost the same period

Does this mean blogging is dangerous? This make me re-think am I in the right path to chase my dream to become a full time blogger?

But this thought just go away within seconds. Even a labour worker can be died with same reasons above. The main point is I want to become a healthy life full time blogger!
