Blogging Will Have Its Role
Posted in Blogging, Social Bookmarking, Social Networks, Web 2.0 by wayne.porter on March 29th, 2007 Sam Harrelson, and I think with a rhetorical bent, asks if blogging works anymore and offers this up:
“Blogging will act as sort of the standard print edition of collected thoughts rather than the only medium that the thoughts are expressed within.”
Exactly. If you think of the Bible as being a collection of “books” or “writings”, or at the very least a collection that has been “canonized”. One can see how the standard blog can become a sort of “canon” for all the information, thoughts, new forms of media, pictures, sounds, IMs, video, etc that are whizzing by us everyday. The velocity will only increase and standard blogging cannot pace this velocity.
Blogs may act to “canonize” some of these thoughts…and that leaves me wondering what happens to the print edition? I love reading fiction from an old book. I would never part from it…but what of non-fiction, reference, and business? How can it keep pace?
