Everything has been written about multiple times, don't worry about it.

If your blog is the first place where a reader runs into a particular information or insight, they will find it valuable, even if chronologically, someone else wrote about it first.

There are like three people in the world who have original ideas (the only example I can think of right now is Robin Hanson), but the number of people with successful blogs is much higher.
