What in the world has happened today to blogs? There are many great ones still out there, especially blogs about specialized subjects. Personal blogs, not so much. I'm still a believer in the personal blog, though. I like that, unlike most social media these days, blogs are uncurated. When I go to a blog, I see all the content, in reverse chronological order. The blogosphere is more like a library, where I go and see an endless array of books, and none have any prominence over the others, and no one tells me which ones to read unless I ask them.
I'm still a little torn between Blogger and tumblr. I like Blogger better for writing, and tumblr better for posting photos. Blogger is more intimate, whereas tumblr is more open. I may begin using my tumblr (subtectummeum) more for photos.
I hope others continue to use their blogs, or begin again. I like them. And thanks to those who read mine.
