The Blogosphere is Dead, Long Live the Blogosphere

Nick Carr is a smart guy.  I’ve been a long-time reader of his blog Rough Type, and I admire his writing style and technique.  Recently, Nick wrote a post that raised the collective ire of the bloggerati: “Who Killed the Blogosphere?“  The finer points are up for debate, but it’s clear that a lot of the people getting worked up over it didn’t fully read the post.  His point was very clear and doesn’t blame anyone: “Who killed the blogosphere? No one did. Its death was natural, and foretold.”
