this year wasn’t just recognition of the growing importance of
online media, but a signal that the ‘old’ and ‘new’ media will
co-exist and interact with each other.”

How does he do it? Is it the length? content? style? insight?

Is because he has been writing for 20 years as a journalist and has developed his own style. readership and things to say? I think that any blog has to reflect the writers personality and that these things will develop over time due to experience, and the development of thinking in a blog style. Dont be reluctant to write stuff that interests just you, but why does it make it important to you and convey that.
Your best stuff reflects what I imagine your personality and lifestyle is actually like.

Hmm yes- that is great feedback thanks harry - I think its difficult with a blog to get caught up-
Must set a theme,
a style
rigid topics
- but really its plainly simple- your thinking it, your blogging it.
And if said blog thought is not received with interest you accept the fact you are an insipid defective moron that should not be wasting bandwidth.

Well I dont think that calling yourself ‘an insipid defective moron that should not be wasting bandwidth’ is probably going to increase your audience anytime soon. Well it might do but you possibly dont want that sort of attention. Having said that though the power of the internet is that anyone can have a blog, website, myspace page and be on the internet. Expecting others to look at it unless its awesome is hubris I would have thought. On the internet no one knows that you are a dog to use an old phrase.
Why rigid topics? Why not the things that are attracting your attention right now and why they are and how they affect us?
