I have been noticing a lot of great new blogs lately. I am still waiting to decide about all the twitter bustle. I still relish blogs and have a sizeable number in my feed reader.
The essence of blogs is that you can find hidden treasures, and they are from individuals that in reality like to put pen to paper.
Sure you can chance some chill souls on twitter. But, seriously, twitter is for individuals with attention defecit disorder or who dont like to write true posts. Yes, tons of people twitter and also blog, and those people are fine by me, but I am forever and evermore a blog lover.
Blogs pressure the author to in reality articluate their sentiment. Twitter on the other hand merely lets you to state it. Call me old fashioned but I imagine there is a point where smaller is no longer sweeter. We have been obsessed with miniturization for so long. Particularly when it comes to technology. Surely there has to be a point where we understand substance counts. Value matters. What do you think?
Maybe the proper answer dwells in balance. And compromise. You cannot push individuals to have essence and not be shallow. But, too possibly you need to force the neo libral hippies to lighten up a fraction too?
