Blogs equal personal diaries, hardly anymore for many

22/10/2008

I read this post below and somehow I have to agree to what it says that blogs have become impersonal. Even though the majority of blogs are not among the Technorati’s Top Lists, most of us approach blogging as a platform to publish well researched and thought-through articles, and hardly posting our spur-of-the-moment thoughts. How many of us use the ‘blog it’ nowadays?

For a change, I’m using ScribeFire for this post :-)

Impersonal is correct: Scroll down Technorati’s list of the top 100 blogs and you’ll find personal sites have been shoved aside by professional ones. Most are essentially online magazines: The Huffington Post. Engadget. TreeHugger. A stand-alone commentator can’t keep up with a team of pro writers cranking out up to 30 posts a day.

    Untill adsense came in market scene was different. But you cant blame adsense, its what your readers would like to read that provoke us to write more interesting topics.

    This is the sad truth about blogs. I myself am trying to build a corporate blog instead of a personal one because my personal one died out ages ago.
