- mcav 15y ago(2009). Best talk I've ever heard.
- Umalu 15y agoI love this Walt Disney quote from the post: "We don’t make movies to make money, we make money to make more movies." That is exactly what separates great content providers (the top 1%) from hacks (the other 99%). HN commenters often dismiss John Gruber as the uber-reflexive Apple fanboy he is, but posts like this suggest there are deeper waters.
- jpitz 15y agoThere are deeper waters, but I tired of wading through the muck. Anything of his ( like this ) that is interesting enough to me to read, usually comes to me through here anyway. Except when he posts about the Rat Pack. Or baseball.....darn it.
- jessedhillon 15y agoIMO this is the best quote from the article, and pretty much gets to the heart of it: The entire quote-unquote “pro blogging” industry ... is predicated on the notion that blogging is a meaningful verb. It is not. The verb is writing. The format and medium are new, but the craft is ancient. --- In other words, as I read it: create content which is meaningful to you and engages your passions, then publish it.
