I have been reading a lot of great new blogs of late. I am still waiting to decide about all the twitter tizzy. I still enjoy blogs and have a significant number in my feed reader.

The essence of blogs is that you can find hidden gems, and they are from people that really like to write.

Sure you can notice some groovy people on twitter. But, seriously, twitter is for people with add or who dont like to write proper posts. Yes, stacks of people twitter and also blog, and those people are cool by me, but I am invariably and eternally a blog fan.

Blogs impel the author to really articluate their view. Twitter on the other hand merely lets you to tell it. Call me old fashioned but I believe there is a point where smaller is no longer better. We have been obsessed with miniturization for so long. Especially when it comes to technology. Surely there has to be a level where we realize substance matters. Value matters. What do you think?

Perhaps the solid answer lies in balance. And compromise. You cannot squeeze individuals to have heart and soul and not be superficial. But, too perhaps you need to force the navel gazing hippies to lighten up a fraction too?
