Blogging and the Wisdom of Crowds

Hi. I've been away for a while so I've only just found this thread. It's all a bit much to read at present (I'm busy trying to get things back on track here) but I did want to thank Walrus for his compliment about the Ms Naughty blog

I think the biggest obstacle is abandoning the splog/TGP blogging model (which I also do when I got nothing to say or find a bunch of really really hot chicks I don't wanna forget). We only have X minutes a day to read blog posts and its just not worth weaving through a bunch of surfer-targetted light tgp-type posts to find a post I might enjoy reading. For me to visit a blog on a daily basis, every post has to be "genuine." No-bullshit straight from your brain/heart deal which either pisses me off or hit a nail on the head enough for me to take X minutes out of my day to respond.

I feel much the same way. I much prefer the less frequently updated blog which I can rely on for entertainment value then the "productive" writer who's keen on sharing how many times they thought of sex during breakfast over a bowl of cornflakes... that's assuming the post isn't about eating cornflakes out of a pussy.
