Where did everyone go?
I’ve discovered that blogging takes dedication and commitment. It’s not one of those things that someone does once and has a hope for anyone to read it. For example, I left my blog for a couple days to go on a little long weekend getaway with my wife and everyone decided to pick-up and leave!!
Crazy!
Anyways, I’m back. I’m in school, I’m reading books that are interesting and generally in the same thrust as the blog tends to go so hopefully we can continue to have some fun.
Right now I’m reading ‘Planting Missional Churches’ by Ed Stetzer. Good times.
Not from the Cookie Cutter
I’m in a predicament.
Even though I’ve blogged for several years on different sites here and there, I actually don’t have any friends who blog regularly. Some of my friends blog intermittently, some think it’s geeky, some probably don’t know what a blog is.
It’s a predicament because I like blogging as a team. I had tried it before (with a friend who rarely blogs) and when it was active and we were bouncing ideas and concepts off each other through blogging it created an interesting scenario.
Mike Guglielmucci and my Blog
Not suprising to most people, when I did my first blog on Guglielmucci my blog hits went through the roof. I would imagine that it was that way across the board.
People were searching for him in droves. But why?
It’s a fair question. Why look up Gugleilmucci in blogs when all the information is available through the news? There are not many reasons to look him up in the blogosphere: opinions and unconfirmed gossip are about it! That’s good and all but I wonder sometimes if people have stopped thinking for themselves, if they’ve stopped forming their own opinion, or maybe they just think that mr. X who writes for blog X has a better opinion of things than they do. All of which are sad thoughts.
In a world where it’s easy to get an answer for anything, have people started trusting the web for answers on everything? I kind of hope they all just like to gossip … as bad as it is, I think it’s the better option.
(i don’t think any of my posts contain ‘gossip’ …)
