I have been discovering a lot of great new blogs lately. I am still undecided about all the twitter bustle. I still love blogs and have over 1000 in my feed reader.
The essence of blogs is that you can find hidden treasures, and they are from people that really like to can write.
Sure you can discover some cool souls on twitter. But, seriously, twitter is for masses with attention defecit disorder or who dont like to write genuine posts. Yes, scores of people twitter and also blog, and those people are fine by me, but I am perpetually and everlastingly a blog lover.
Blogs force the author to really articluate their sentiment. Twitter on the other hand merely permits you to say it. Call me old fashioned but I think there is a point where smaller is no longer nicer. We have been obsessed with miniturization for so long. Peculiarly when it comes to technology. Certainly there has to be a place where we recognise substance matters. Value matters. What do you think?
Maybe the proper answer rests in equilibrium. And compromise. You cannot pressure individuals to have substance and not be superficial. But, too maybe you need to pressure the navel gazing hippies to lighten up a little aswell?
