Blogging is Dead?
At this year’s SXSW conference, blogger and science fiction writer Bruce Sterling told a crowd that blogging would be dead within ten years. Blogging, dead? Just like Captain America?
Well, what Sterling was talking about was that blogging in its current iteration would no longer be around. Online journals would just be an integrated part of life, not really “gone.” Blogging is dead just sounds much more exciting but really, do you think that once everyone gets their hands on tools that help them post words, photos, audio, video online that it’ll go away? Nope. Blogging will just become part of the fabric of our culture and never go away, just like the Captain — even if he is momentarily knocked out of service.
