- logophilus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I write my blog for no one else's edification, nor do I keep myself to any particular timeline. I try to avoid anything artificial like that. I write articles about positions that I feel strongly about. I write what I want to write, when I want to write, and a blog is a nice compact way to store writing. It also provides temporal structure, which lets the people who I tell about my blog what's new.
- bitcloud, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3sure.. the internet was created with the dream that the "content creator/consumer" divide would be obliterated.
If course we've let it fall back into the hands of Murdoch with myspace, apple with ITMS, and other centralised hubs who make a *fortune* on exploiting the exclusivity of their boys clubs.
There's no such thing as "internet litter" if the search engines can be made to be more effective at letting you weed through the nonsense.
I do agree that people should probably not blog about the same ***** as everyone else... the number of "news" blogs is staggering. I think the better solution that suggesting people shut up is for google to gather keywords and group similar articles who link to the same locations so our search results aren't cluttered with repeats of "apple releases new ipod" garbage. - AZSanMan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Great article... Let's all do a reality check before hitting the keyboard people!
- ChronicColonic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3This article pretty much says it all... the urge to blog has been great so I started one. It is fun but the work of getting people to visit or see what you wrote is exasperating. I am having much more fun commenting on Digg.com. Digg has been a creative release...more than any blog could provide.
- jacenat, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3i was happy with my blog.
and i enjoyed writing on it, eventhough almost noone read it.
also it was a great way to get out long-ass complicated essays to the crowd i know.
but satisfaction ... no that surely is one thing a blog can't give you - ZeroMP, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"It is fun but the work of getting people to visit or see what you wrote is exasperating."
If you have to work to get people to see what you wrote then you've got to ask yourself the following questions:
1) Was it really worth writing at all?
2) Am I spamming my ***** to people who don't care?
3) If people actually did care wouldn't they find it on their own or submit it to social sites like Digg themselves?
The answers:
1) No
2) Probably
3) Yes but they don't care, you didn't make anything worth reading. - thevoyager, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Although I enjoy blogging I liked the article..
