Unless you write compelling content on a compelling topic, it is REALLY HARD for blogging to take off, especially makingn nice and sustainable income.
LCF started his blog way long back, slowly gathering link, and build his own reputation and readership slowly. If he were start today, I guess it would take more than 2 years (or never) for the blog to take off.
Alang, I supposed start at a niche site (about OSX), which is preferbably a more recommended way to do. Start with a niche site (on what you know, on what you love, on what you passion about) with a goal of been the 'king of your niche' one day. Do your research. Throw time in. I believe y ou will achieve a nice income within 6-12 months.

I've done a bit of research into blogging CMS and I think that I'll go with either Textpattern or NucleusCMS. Opensourcecms.com/ seems to provide excellent information, plus they even have demoes of the systems.

IMHO, Wordpress is the best, both as a CMS and Blogging platform.
