Hmmm. This reminds me of all the hoo-ha about blogging. Apparently there’s a faction over in the mfa program that thinks ‘blogs are over.’
Hipsters.
My view is that blogging isn’t yet a mature technology and won’t be until blogging is as easy as using the phone or watching tv. All and still, I think it’s gotten to the point where anybody who feels the urge to write really ought to have a blog. Which is about like saying that anybody who likes to listen to music ought to have a stereo. It’s not the sort of thing that can be ‘over.’
Podcasting is probably about the same.

A good point. There are those – and they’re not blogging, they may not even be podcasting any longer – who are always searching for ‘the new thing.’ For them it’s all about being ahead of the curve. I wonder what they _are_ doing at the moment…..
