Maybe I'm decrying the old dying medium, but my experience matches many sibling comments.
I started blogging over 15 years ago (when you didn't unanimously call them blogs yet) and it was mostly a personal log. When I started studying I had a more focused topic but still personal anecdotes (well, sometimes even both in the same post, naturally) and it shifted more and more towards bigger, more technical articles the more I transitioned into "proper" work experience. Then at some point I decided to not post small oneliners anymore, only medium-length pieces. But as much as I have stopped regularly posting daily (or even weekly or monthly), at least 2/3 of all the blogs I've read have stopped as well.
Links (sometimes with comment, often without) are shared via Twitter and Facebook (and for a shrinking minority, G+), commenting and replying is a lot easier there. This could all be my little filter bubble though (or my interests have shifted that much, but I don't really think so) - so I think I might be following more gaming blogs (that have frequent posts, averaging 1 per day) than my old mix of tech/PLT/Linux/personal aquaintances (those especially have stopped blogging).
