A need for a new blog ranking system

July 4, 2009

We might not want to admit in public but bloggers; especially those doing it as a career, liked having a ranking system that we use to get with Technorati. I say use to because whether they might not want to admit it or not Technorati isn’t really relevant anymore. Still though we flash that [...]

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 [...]

June 7, 2009

T hose of you who still remember things like classified ads in those antiquated things called newspapers will probably also remember those ads that promised big fat checks from stuffing envelopes at home.

It’s always been the conversation about the content – not the content alone

June 4, 2009

To echo the headline of a post written by Mack Collier today:
The idea that ‘content is king’ in blogging is total bullshit.
Thank you Mack for aptly sizing up the the over hyped nonsense that all it takes to become a popular blogger is a lot of really good in-depth quality posts. In most [...]
