Interesting Post From NYT
Here’s an interesting piece about blogging from The New York Times:
Not all fallow blogs die from lack of reader interest. Some bloggers find themselves too busy — what with, say, homework and swim practice, or perhaps even housework and parenting. Others graduate to more immediate formats, like Twitter and Facebook. And a few — gasp — actually decide to reclaim some smidgen of personal privacy. – Blogs Falling In An Empty Forest
Some blog because they got carried away by the hype. Those who blog just for the heck of it usually become disinterested after a while and just leave their created blogs floating in the wastelands of the world wide web.
I read the same article a week ago when it first came out. People quit blogging for a host of reasons. I myself do not know how long I will keep blogging for there are times when things just get too busy at work and in life. I will try to keep on blogging though….. for now.
What a – gasp – nice quote and succinct post. The quote is lengthier [longer?] than the actual post? Never mind. The last sentence of the excerpted material more than makes up for it.Who says by the way that a post should at the very least be this xxx number of words. Love this. I'd follow that link. Because – gasp – I haven't read it yet.This is bad I'm leaving this blog with a verbal tic. Yay.PS: I like that category “blah.” Maybe I should have one for my blog, too.
