I have been discovering a lot of great new blogs lately. I am of the opinion the jury is still out about all the twitter flap. I still enjoy blogs and have a substantial number in my feed reader.

The cool thing about blogs is that you can find hidden treasures, and they are from individuals that in reality like to write.

Sure you can find some groovy souls on twitter. But, seriously, twitter is for masses with attention defecit disorder or who dont like to write longer posts. Yes, lots of people twitter and also blog, and those souls are fine by me, but I am forever and forever a blog lover.

Blogs push the author to actually articluate their opinion. Twitter by comparison merely allows for you to express it. Call me old fashioned but I suppose there is a point where smaller is no longer best. We have been obsessed with miniturization for so long. Especially when it comes to technology. Surely there has to be a level where we take in substance matters. Value matters. What do you believe?

Maybe the proper answer dwells in balance. And compromise. You cannot force individuals to have marrow and not be shallow. But, too perhaps you need to push the obama loving hippies to lighten up a little too?
