New Media

Although I try and stay away from blogging too much about blogging itself (only so much "meta" is really productive in the end,) I've been blogging and thinking about blogging for a really long time, and I think the ways in which media is changing and developing is really interesting, and blogging is a big part of that ongoing transformation

The bulk of the essays indexed in this archive relate to the topic of "Success" in blogging and independent media, and were published during 2009. There are, probably more posts about blogging itself from further back in the achieves but they form a much less coherent train of thought.
