What Have I Been Reading of Late, What I Suppose about Twitter and Why Blogging Is the Best
I have been reading a lot of great new blogs recently. I am still undecided about all the twitter stir. I still love blogs and have a huge number in my feed reader.
The key part of blogs is that you can find hidden jewels, and they are from individuals that actually like to put pen to paper.
Sure you can chance some groovy individuals 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 chill by me, but I am incessantly and eternally a blog lover.
Blogs pressure the author to in reality articluate their belief. Twitter by comparison merely allows you to say it. Call me old fashioned but I reckon there is a point where smaller is no longer greater. We have been obsessed with miniturization for so long. Specially when it comes to technology. Certainly there has to be a place where we understand substance counts. Value matters. What do you suppose?
Perchance the real answer rests in equilibrium. And compromise. You cannot force individuals to have essence and not be shallow. But, too perhaps you need to force the obama loving hippies to lighten up a touch aswell?
