Why late in the day? It's not like there was a trend that peaked or something. Look at Yahoo's purchase of blog network Associated Content and AOL's move in a similar direction. The web is growing, people are searching more, clicking on more stuff, therefore the ad money to be made is growing, not declining.
Thing is if you put up a blog about your personal life or something, or the nth blog of design images from other sites, then sit back and wait for the money to roll in, you may be slightly disappointed a month later when you receive your five dollar check from Google. If you want to actually make a living off this stuff (not that I do but I know people who do) you have to actually treat it as a business and pursue it as such.
