crysies / byesies.
I really enjoyed Shane's blog, actually. Twas on my daily read list.
I think we're entering a post-blogging period here, on, um the interweb, the world etc? Have been thinking a lot meself about taking a long break from blog world... probably will do so in the next couple of months, I reckon, when I think of something more useless to do with my time.

Blog retirement is passé.
What's *all* the rage now is to leave it moulder in the corner smelling like an old duffel and give it the odd kick.
Jeez I'd miss your blog Una, I've been reading it the past year or so and it's great! You've your finger on the pluse of all that interesting and happening. I'd be lost without it! Declan
i might actually have to do some work then. oh no!
where does blogging go, though? How will it develop? Will it die like other trends, or evolve into something else? What will that somethig else be?
These are all questions I have been asking myself recently. I don't know the answers. But I do feel like blogging is about to be a little bit... over.
Bring on the post-blogging Interweb!
live ranting, from your mobile phone or web devise. everyone will have there own talk show.
"Andy Warhol was wrong. In the future, people won't be famous for fifteen minutes. No, in the future, everyone will sit next to someone famous for at least fifteen minutes. Typhoid Mary or Ted Bundy or Sharon Tate. History is nothing except monsters or victims. Or witnesses."
When I started the blog, one of my colleagues said 'blogging won't be around in 15 or 20 years'. I remember thinking 'dude, blogs wont be around in 5 years time'.
Blogs will evolve into something else which will largely be the same thing - people writing regularly online about stuff. The reason why blogs are successful is because people are in offices bored and there really is nothing to do on the web. Seriously, take away blogs and online chatterboards and what do you have? Just as web-mags gave way to blogs, blogs will give way to.... I bet Mulley knows the answer
I don't think Shane stopping his blog signifies some vast cultural seachange, with respect.
