What have I been reading lately, What I believe around twitter and why blogging is the best.
25 June 2009I have been noticing a lot of great new blogs recently. I am still waiting to decide about all the twitter bustle. I still love blogs and have a substantial number in my feed reader.
The essence of blogs is that you can find hidden jewels, and they are from people that in reality like to can string more than a few words togther.
Sure you can discover some groovy souls on twitter. But, seriously, twitter is for masses with attention defecit disorder or who dont like to write decent posts. Yes, stacks of people twitter and also blog, and those souls are cool by me, but I am always and evermore a blog fan.
Blogs drive the author to really articluate their judgment. Twitter by comparison merely lets you to submit it. Call me old fashioned but I think there is a point where smaller is no longer sweeter. We have been obsessed with miniturization for so long. Peculiarly when it comes to technology. Surely there has to be a point where we realise substance matters. Value matters. What do you think?
Perchance the practical answer dwells in balance. And compromise. You cannot pressure people to have essence and not be superficial. But, too maybe you need to force the navel gazing hippies to lighten up a touch aswell?
