Reasons for writing a blog

I've been looking for a good reason to write a blog for some time, since most blogs are a pure waste of time for the author and the reader. So I am trying to combine the benefits for the reader (if there are any) with mine. In this blog I will publish ideas I've been pondering for some time, but never got to really follow up. The reason has been mostly time. I simply had different priorities. Nevertheless I like the ideas and consider them interesting, novel or useful. I choose to publish them this way which seems to have the least cost to me. Nevertheless I hope publishing them will free my mind for future ideas which would be my benefit. I believe most of them could be made into reasonable scientific publications given someone spends sufficient time evaluating them. In some sense this blog itself is the first such idea.
