Blogs are Done? Not Likely
Monday, November 3rd, 2008Apparently blogs are over and done with. At least, Wired thinks so. Wait… what?
Jeffrey Zeldman would strongly disagree, and he just wrote a scathing critique of Wired’s editorial pronouncing blogs dead, and although his tone is definitely set to ‘acidic’, his points are right on.
I just want to quote the editorial’s misguided author, Paul Boutin:
@WiredReader: Kill yr blog. 2004 over. Google won’t find you. Too much cruft from HuffPo, NYT. Commenters are tards. C u on Facebook?
That’s what he’s proposing that we replace blog culture with. Seriously?
