Posting Redux: Bloggers - Hypocrisy of ethics

July 5, 2009

While moving to the new domain and new name I’ve been finding posts that I really liked when I first wrote them. So I have decided to repost them as part of a regular Sunday feature for the next little while. At the bottom of the repost I will also update the original post with [...]

All the tools are there for newspapers to save themselves

July 2, 2009

While Michelle Greer might have being saying it with a little tongue in cheek when she suggested that to save themselves newspapers should hire Robert Scoble the point she was trying to make is pretty spot on. The overall point that I get the impression that she was trying to make is that newspapers [...]

This is why we read blogs, and people like Scoble

July 1, 2009

Like Alexander van Elsas I tend to call bullshit on much of what amounts to nothing more than hype when it comes to this thing called the real-time web (RTW). Yes it has its place but in level of consumer importance the bullet points that the proponents of RTW hoist upon us really doesn’t [...]

Voices

June 28, 2009

An old Chinese proverb, and funnily enough a curse, says “May you live in interesting times” and there is no doubt that in both its forms the proverb speaks volumes about our online world. We do indeed live in some incredibly interesting times that sometime it is easy to become over-inundated with everything that [...]

Maybe we should get the FTC to change our diapers as well

June 23, 2009

There’s been a lot of rah-rah’ing the past couple of days about how the FTC is going to start keep their eye on bloggers to make sure that we aren’t doing anything dishonest and misleading to our readers. The funny part about this is that myself, Sean P. Aune and Mark “Rizzn” Hopkins talked [...]

June 20, 2009

Rapid fire posting – that is the norm it seems, at least within the tech blogosphere. Name any list of tips and hints and some where in those lists will be the tip to just get the message out there, you can always add to it. This has lead many, especially within old media [...]

The passing fad of an anonymous web

June 18, 2009

When blogging first started out much of what was written was done anonymously with made up names. Over time we seem to have shifted naturally to using our real names but in some cases that anonymity was something some bloggers felt they needed to keep.
Those days may be falling by the wayside as more [...]

Disclosure – another set of old media rules that don’t apply

May 28, 2009

Ever since I read Brian Solis’ post over at TechCrunch last week I have been rehashing this re-occurring pointless discussion in my head. The thrust of the post was about the new set of “guidelines” that the FTC is trying to enact that would enforce bloggers, or as they are framing it – citizen [...]

Donations as a blogging revenue

May 16, 2009

If there is one subject that will draw lines in the sand faster than mentioning Windows and Apple it has to be the discussions that rage over bloggers trying to earn a direct income from their blogs. On the one hand we have the Blogging Purity Patrol™ who say that any form of advertising [...]

A blogger’s rewards aren’t always monetary

May 10, 2009

As we know the blogging world is divided pretty well down the middle when it comes to making money. On one side you have the blogging purity patrol who think that making money directly from your blog is evil and dirties the profession. Then on the flipside you have those that see nothing wrong [...]
