rss, bloglines, lions, tigers, technocrati...oh, my

I guess real bloggers never get tired of creating, reading their musings and posting...

it keeps them going even if no one ever comments on their content (like our 23 things postings).

Read my post on the FC Library 23 things main page as I will pick it up here (got my eyes on the 100 bucks...even only I can outwit that Jack dog/person).

The world of blogging is amazing. There is crap enough for everyone.

That said, there is some helpful content written by working professionals; just so much out there (in addition to print) that one could read and comment on so that 8 hours a day of work becomes much less.

It is hard for me to take the time to even write this, let alone read dozens of postings just on library-related blogs. Work is left undone while we read and blog.

If I believed that certain library blogs were worth visiting even for 5 minutes a day, I would need to schedule time for it or I would forget about it.

I guess I still think that a journal or magazine article has more value to browse or read than a blog that did not take as much thought to create or have any editorial review on it.

Therefore I remain,

socially networked but I can't get a date!

What I think is interesting is the amount of blogging that goes on that people do not comment on.

2 comments were made by a very small post. Zero comments were written on a long post.

Had I said it all?

Search engines that are web 2.0 are a nice addition.

I still couldn't find the site I wanted (maybe this organization does not have a web presence) but I did find plenty when the search engines worked.

Maybe those who run the engines were too busy blogging (or reading and not commenting) to display results.
