I want to write somewhat of a blog. It will be updated every day with that day's happenings. I will also be including some product review and such. Do I start a new hub every day or do I just edit my original Hub by adding more capsules?
Scubasara, if you want to write a blog, I suggest you go and join a blogging site like Blogger or Wordpress.com. Of course, we don't want to chase you away, but the plain fact is that HubPages is NOT a blogging site and the setup isn't suitable for blogging.
If you're here just for fun, then I guess that doesn't matter much - if you like it here then you're free to do whatever you like.
However, if you're here with the idea of making some income from your writing, then your idea won't work.
Think of HubPages as your favourite magazine, and write your Hubs as if they were articles in the magazine, not just posts on a blog. They can still be about your progress in "going green". Then you'll get somewhere.
Hubpages isn't a blog site and it isn't at all suitable for that kind of thing. You are best off creating evergreen content, i.e. content that needs infrequent updating and is always of interest.
If you want a blog for talking about that day's happenings, you can set one up for free on wordpress.com. And that's really your best option as you won't make money just talking about your day to day life so there is no point putting Adsense or advertising on it. But it is very good for backlinks to your hubs.
Then what I would recommend is that you create product review hubpages and hubs about other evergreen topics - and link to your new hubs from your blog.
You can also link to your blog from your Hubpages profile so other hubbers who are curious can find your blog.

I have just been back to edit this hub <link snipped> and find a list of obscene words at the top of the page. What is happening? Thanks.

I am screaming with frustration! Most of my hubs have been unfeatured due to lack of traffic. I write about gardening which no one wants to read about in the winter. Spring is coming so I want to get my hubs featured again, but every time I try to edit them, I either get an error...

I started using this blogging link to send my own hubs out of the hub nest. Soon, as I was going to make comments for my friends list I ended up reading other good hubs and decided to share theirs on my blogs too. Then the blog idea started evolving to help promote more reads and...

All day today (9/24), I've been editing a hub, and every time I click Preview I get a blank Preview box with no text or images. My hub is http://hubpages.com/hubtool/edit/3381417 . I use Firefox 15.0.1 on Windows XP.
