The Good old days of blogging

There was a time when blogging was a new thing.  It had to have started prior to 2002, because that is when I recall reading my first blog.

You can tell when things go to pot.  It is when things get commercialized.  At least that is true in the info biz.

There are some old time blogs still churning out the words, but they seem a little tired and discouraged.   Actually, I think this blog as well as the others have to compete with the likes of Twitter and Facebook.  What survives is something like Instapundit.

But Instapundit is commercialized too.

Blogs aren't what they used to be.  It really was a people's source of info.  This stuff they have now is not good.

Can you fight money and power?

The question probably answers itself.  But you do it anyway.
