About two years ago I posted an entry regarding the frequency of use of Blogs, Social Networks, Twitter, etc. Recently, I had some more time and started updating my Facebook status more often, tweeting again, and now posting on my blog again. What I said then still holds true.
My boss and I were talking recently about blogs, the Internet, Social Networking (Social Media), Twitter, and the like. He brought up some statistic about blogs that I found interesting. That only 5% of blogs have been updated in the past 120 days (according to a New York Times blog entry from June). He considers himself one of the early bloggers and has had a blog since the dinosaurs. He regularly updates it (at least once per week but sometimes as frequently as dozen times per month) and has many opinions about the value of bloggers and blogs in general. I’m not going to go into that, but he can on his blog if he so chooses.
It got me to thinking about my own blog and the fact that it’s not something I update regularly. I sort of go through spurts where I’ll write blog entries a few times per week and other times where I either can’t think of a topic or I have bloggers block I just don’t want to blog on topics that may be on my mind.
