It's now considered as a media format, rather than the old definition which is a personal journal held by a blogger. Look at Technorati or Techmeme's top 100 blogs. All of them are owned by media corporations (techcrunch, gigaom, huffington post, boing boing, gawker), and the only blog which is written by an individual is www.avc.com (Fred Wilson) In the same time, old media such as new york times have embraced the blog format, and most reporters have now a blog. So my point is not that blogging is dead. My point is that blogging has changed from its initial definition (and in the meantime, it has also lost its initial influence) About number 8, I think the definition of “blogs” have changed.

Number 8. is kind to hypocritical though. Why do you continue to blog and are you blogging as a faceless corporation? Agreed early adopters have moved but the mainstream still searches Google. Perhaps I'm in denial ;) You make some good points. Number 8. is kind to hypocritical though. Why do you continue to blog and are you blogging as a faceless corporation?
