If you do blog about your business but include local events, info etc, you naturally be "hyperblogging" and can definitely help your site/business in local searches.

I think the quote you selected from Matt is spot on - a "sincere interest " in the subject matter (plus some planning and goal setting IMHO) is the perfect starting point for a successful blog, whatever it's subject matter.
