I occasionally blog, and am a professional developer, and I personally find the keyboard to be very comfortable to type on. You'd have to go in to your local Best Buy or Microsoft Store and put your hands on it yourself, but if I had to make an educated guess, I think it would work fine for that! That being said, it's a spendy computer, so if that's ALL you're doing with it, you might go for a cheaper Surface Pro, or maybe even a different machine. The Surface Book is definitely a "premium" device. Just one guy's opinion, though. :)
