I don't know what you're talking about with their "going by the wayside". You may not be visiting, but they're certainly there. Busy, too. I expect they'll get busier as the economy gets worse, because live people are much better at bringing things in paper bags and covered dishes than correspondents on a blog or social network site are. I defacebooked this week; saw no point to staying on there. I don't think there's any need, by the way, to characterize comments that point out the limited utility of social networks as "complaining and badmouthing". I think it's probably just more accurate to say that blogs and social networks online are useful to a much narrower set of people than you might imagine.

I like the way you explain a blog network as "a bar on Friday night" or "a lunchroom" and your personal blog as your "home." It's interesting how you compel readers to "be found" by exploring blog communities rather than just, shall i say, sit on their couch eating a tub of Chubby Hubby watching Sex and the City reruns. I also like how you pointed out that even though blogs are personal, "it's not all about you." Its true that we self-centered millenials think that "by giving away permission to our soul, great things should happen," but it's true that "that’s not how it works." You compel your readers to think beyond themselves and attempt to become more active bloggers in the community. I found this post really interesting.

In the bar there are people who just talk and talk and talk and never listen. They have to be extremely entertaining to keep it up. Someone who listens and talks is much more fun to hang out with.
