Blogging is Dead!
Have you read the article about blogging being dead?
Interesting article, and dead on!
If your goal is to write "posts quickly skyrocketing to the top of Google's search results for any given topic."
I think if you're trying to have intelligent conversations or share best ideas, you're better off writing an article on your blog instead of just writing 140 characters on Twitter.
Do a Google search for manager, and tell me where Manager Tools and Slacker Manager rank.
Tell me blogs don't work!
This article is interesting though, and I agree that as mainstream media go more blog-like (read: more frequent and fast updates) they will show up higher in search engine rankings. After all, what are you looking for when you search for "Obama campaign speech" Obama's campaign speech on a major news network, probably in a copywrited video form, or some bloggers take on the same speech, with a link to some useless YouTube video?
Another way to think of it is comparing it to TV: Do you want to watch The Office or do you want to watch a show that talks about The Office?
Make sense?
What do you think?
