"I'd say blogging helps you be concetrated on what you are working on."

This makes no sense to me.

Working on what you're working on helps you concentrate on what you're working on.

if the posts are related to the things you are working on, then writing about them, during a break, it could help you not get distracted in case you did something else totally irrelevant.

OK. I guess that logic works.

It's still a bad idea to associate blog-writing skill with technical and even interpersonal skill. It's also a bad idea to make too many assumptions about the reason why someone might choose not to have a blog. A guy with a family might not want to risk getting the wrong sort of attention, for example.
