Hi,
You're thinking big - I like it. Blogging is a great way to learn or develop a skill. I began with a photography blog before focusing on my personal development blog.
Just one warning: with the example you give - programming - readers of this field in particular want to read articles by people with a lot of knowledge and experience. So you may find it hard to capture an audience initially. I wouldn't get discouraged though. The key is how you define the success of your blog. In this example, success could be the development of your programming skills rather than capturing an audience. As you say, once you learnt programming there are a number of different things you can do which can lead you to having your own business.
Just my 2c.
Peter
