To be honest, there are not many people writing about some topics in my profession, so I do not have that many bloggers jumping on the same subject as I. My personal philosophy (oh, god, here he goes breaking out the personal belief card) is that individuals who are involved and care for their topic will continue to find ways to explore that idea. I enjoy reading those ideas, but the conference I mentioned was pointing towards a site like YouTube becoming the focus of people using the web, since videos are so much more entertaining. However, I think that a good analogy is that of a book and the movie based on the book: the writing is so much richer in information than the image. Blogging will fade from the stage, but it will hold a place. Alex-

Most of the information I read each day is just duplicates from other blogs. Sometimes I even get 8 or 10 times the same news. I suppose that writing an in-depth analysis will get quite hard for all the me-too blogs that just replicate stuff from other places. Buckpost, I agree with you 100%.

This is specially true for me-too tech blogs. Don't get me wrong, people will continue to write, it's human nature, but many subjects will be killed after the bubble, so either you talk about other things, in which case, you are changing your audience, or you slow your posts per day rate.

As a tech blogger, I think what you will see is lots of bloggers maybe move on when there's less to write about. Then again, this could be a good thing by getting rid of some of the me-too, jump-on-the-bandwagon blogging that goes on.

People will get bored with it and move on to something else. But, you will always have another group right behind them ready to pick up the slack. Plus someone will come along and invent something new. :) L Blogging will be like everything else. People will get bored with it and move on to something else.

The various groups represented had a positive outlook on the development of the infrastructure to bring us the web with the emphasis on faster service. They referred to the "exaflood" of information, but many of them saw online videos being the main reason for being on the web. Personally, I do not get social networking sites (because of my own character), but blogging fits the need of those sites. I think that there is enough of us who like the idea of reading the musings of others, and then connecting through comments. For those of us who use blogging partially for business, I think it provides better interaction with our customers.I just do not see blogging as loosing too much ground for a while.
