I am thinking about setting up seperate accounts for my blog on the following networks:
linkedin
Facebook
I already have accounts under my own name, do you think it’s a good idea to do this, or should I just keep with the personal accounts and just link to my blog?

I’ve always liked to just maintain a single personal account on the social networks and promote all my blogs through them. The more separate accounts you have the more difficult it gets to maintain them all. Eventually you end up with a collection of unmaintained social sites.
So the fewer you have the more time you have to create content for your blogs.
The exception would be if you have a particular blog that just takes off with massive popularity, then you’d want to re-think your strategy a bit.
I think Facebook frown on people setting up accounts for blogs or businesses and prefer it if you create a page for them instead. Even without that limitation, it seems better to have a real person behind an account, so people get to know you as Wizard, the guy who blogs at Wizard’s Blog, rather than just a faceless blog title.
BTW have you added your blog to the Blog Network app on FB? I’m adding mine and it’s been quite a surprise to see how many people have joined.
Thanks for the comments so far, keep them coming
My facebook account is just my name. I RSS my blog into my facebook account, some FB folks read my blog in FB and just comment in FB, some of them follow back to my blog and comment there. So, I would said just use the one account you already have, it works well me for

Like everyone here has said. I think you should just have a personal account and via that mention your blog. Hope this helps you out.
