- johnnybgoode 17y agoIt's not negative, it's accurate. You know, it could be both.
- TomOfTTB 17y agoIt could be but I don't think it is. If anything it disproves the most common anti-blog slur, namely that blogs are full of amateurs with no talent. In truth blogs are like any other form of media. Those who are good rise to the top, those who aren't fall to the bottom and give up.
- Achorny 17y agoThat's true but how many blogs are even started with either generating lots of traffic, or lasting forever, as goals? The article implies that all or most do, but some percentage must be started just as experiments or hobbies, and I would hardly call those "failures", not in any useful sense of the word.
