Blogzilla vs Realitron
Chris Houchens (Shotgun Marketing Blog) posts about not posting.
I don't subscribe to the philosophy that mandates you have 8 posts a day, check your technorati ranking every hour, and do nothing but blog and go to conferences (or "un"conferences) with other bloggers.Neither do I. Possibly because I'm lazy. Chris also links to a brilliant post by Mack Collier on blogger-reality vs, well, reality.
I think we bloggers sometimes lose sight of the fact that while something might be big-time in the blogosphere, that doesn't mean that the majority of America cares, or worse yet, even knows what we are talking about.This kind of ties in with my Scoble/Gates leaving post. The blogosphere has a tendency of blowing itself out of proportions. While it is changing facets of business, marketing, etc... blogging is, to many people out of the sphere, a passtime for frustrated writers.Speaking of conferences (or un-conferences), bloggers flock to them because it's the blogosphere masked as the real world. A real world where A-listers can fix any problem by "blogging about it", people look familiar because you've seen them on Flickr and everyone checks their RSS subscriptions hourly on sticker-riddled MacBooks.
