I came across this good evaluation of the "12 traits of successful bloggers" from Darren Rowse.
Creative and Playful, Innovative, Connectors, Community Enablers, Information Mavens, Communicators, Interest, Entrepreneurs, Originality, Perseverance, Focus, Curiosity. Worth a read.
We all have a different set of traits. I am sure my list will be different, with a few overlaps.
