There is still so much more growth from the aspect of how a blog can be used by those innovative types. Maybe there is a blog post in there somewhere. Thanks again for reading and especially for commenting and engaging in the conversation. Martha- Oh how right you are.

My whole problem with this idea is the generalization of content. That is: condemning actual specific, in depth information to the history books. The great thing about blogs is that you get some like Dosh Dosh and Design Observer that are willing to go in depth and service those of us that like to know a lot. Where as in mainstream, you often have to visit tons of sources to compile some statistics and a full story. Blogs are not always for general audiences. Sometimes blogs are for serious debates and involvement. I don't think blogging will die anymore than cell phones will die. I do think, however, it's in danger of becoming so downsized that the evolution won't particularly matter after a certain point.

I don’t think blogging will die anymore than cell phones will die. I do think, however, it’s in danger of becoming so downsized that the evolution won’t particularly matter after a certain point.

I read the review on Amazon and it appears he talks about our First Amendment rights in relation to blogging and brings up the "darker side" of blogging. He also talks about how it affects business, politics, and more. This book is on my list to purchase and I thought Grant's readers might be interested. I don't know Dave Wallace personally but I feel like I know him. I used to live in Sugar Land, TX and we attended same church where he sang in the choir. While we still lived there Dave became the mayor of Sugar Land. He's no longer the mayor but is still active in the community. I recently started following him on Twitter and learned that he had written this new book. If you want to follow him, his Twitter address is http://twitter.com/davidgwallace <abbr><em>Reba Collins´s last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/InternetMarketingBoomer/~3/445046846/" rel="nofollow">Can You Really Make Money Blogging?</a></abbr></em> I haven’t had a chance to read a new book by Dave Wallace called “One Nation Under Blog” but it sounds interesting.
