In response I immediately checked my own 'puerile witterings (Daily Mail) to find that my first post hit the ether on April 14th 2008... meaning I'm not that far behind you all. And do you know how many page views it received? 6. Yes, 6. Mind you, the second post (according to the stats) only got one. (Thanks, mum!). So what's changed? Well, that has (obviously) but I also notice an increasing use of audio-visual technology. Some of the best blogs now are more like mini multi-media websites, with podcasts, video, audio streaming, animation and a whole host of other things I know nothing about (but wish I did). What a lot has changed!Tim Atkinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00858684167484655029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-3711533038955864382012-10-03T10:21:56.139+01:002012-10-03T10:21:56.139+01:00Ah, so you originally said "Not wrong, just d...Ah, so you originally said "Not wrong, just different" did you? THAT dates you!<br /><br />You're spot on, on all points. Yes, blog posts are shorter. I hadn't realised, but you're right. I agree - either we're more efficient at wittering, or blogging is less therapeutic in nature than it used to be. Maybe it's also because we're all getting shorter attention spans. Twitter, and all that.<br /><br />By the way, no, I didn't mean you to tag other people. It's so long since I did a post with a tag, that I obviously didn't remember quite what that meant. I'm now trying to think what I should have said. "I'm inviting other bloggers to have their say" or something like that (sounds a bit pompous, though).<br />Iota https://www.blogger.com/profile/08507184283437057648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-22784463172621134612012-10-02T19:12:25.606+01:002012-10-02T19:12:25.606+01:00PS.
