I have been reading a lot of great new blogs lately. I am still waiting to decide about all the twitter fuss. I still love blogs and have over 1000 in my feed reader.
The thing about blogs is that you can find hidden jewels, and they are from people that really like to can write.
Sure you can discover some chill souls on twitter. But, seriously, twitter is for individuals with add or who dont like to write normal posts. Yes, loads of people twitter and also blog, and those individuals are groovy by me, but I am always and everlastingly a blog fan.
Blogs push the author to in reality articluate their view. Twitter however merely permits you to submit it. Call me old fashioned but I believe there is a point where smaller is no longer easier. We have been obsessed with miniturization for so long. Especially when it comes to technology. Surely there has to be a level where we understand substance matters. Value matters. What do you believe?
Perhaps the solid answer lies in balance. And compromise. You cannot pressure individuals to have marrow and not be shallow. But, too possibly you need to drive the neo libral hippies to lighten up a touch aswell?
