more thoughts on the great weblog downturn:
“Talking about the Internet is so last year.
Wonder why so many people are giving up their weblogs? Because the excitement has died down. There are no amazing new business models to assess, crazy new web sites to explore, theorems to dissect, concepts to discuss.”
interesting thought. as always, there’s probably some kernal of truth to it. i don’t know, it may make me so last year, but i’ve never found myself at a loss for finding interesting things and it still happens that most of those interesting things come via ‘blogs. if anything, hopefully we’re finally getting away from thinking, philosphophizing and dissecting the medium and moving towards just using it to communicate and learn. it’s not like you see that many tv channels devoted to how cool tv is.
