Any value added if they went back to blogging?<br />Maybe they are not asleep. Maybe it is conscious.Redbelthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07338152724455215900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023991709134950870.post-32905064494924884302009-11-03T09:32:59.092+03:002009-11-03T09:32:59.092+03:00Bloggers are the ones who are letting their blogs to be dead, but letting Twitter &amp; other social network medias suck them.<br /><br />They don&#39;t want to fight it, they just loved the fancy techology, simple and fast. With the help of mobile broadband, it became more easy, &#39;Click on Move&#39;, they realize when its too late that their blogs is dead, blame it to twitter &amp; dive more within twitter insted of revieving their blog.<br /><br />Wake up before its too late.Shulahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00839863511923682445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023991709134950870.post-64045751546084885372009-10-01T09:37:10.316+03:002009-10-01T09:37:10.316+03:00Nibaq&gt; Very interesting points. You think that they moved on to different platforms?<br />I think that people don&#39;t care about random thuoghts anymore.<br />Mahmood&gt; The Omnia was great. I lost it on a London Taxi. iPhone was a stupid decision up to 3Gs. now it is more bearable.<br />It is a sweet peice of kit.<br />As for the content, it is always king. However, I propose that not the quality that matters only, they type of content is. Random thoughts of randome people? out.<br />Ali&gt; I blame it on tech trouble. first my editing PC went nuts, now I&#39;m trying to upload an episode for three days with no luck.

Now your platform is communicating through a vlog, mine is to tell stories with my twist for my corporate customers via video.<br /><br />facebook and twitter are the latest fads, so are a zillion others. one thing is constant; however, regardless of platform, content is really king.Mahmood Al-Yousifhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12299746072347531033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023991709134950870.post-64614550188486147372009-09-30T11:35:35.923+03:002009-09-30T11:35:35.923+03:00I called the death of blogging a couple years ago for the simple reason no one wants to sit in front of a computer anymore. <br /><br />It made sense when that was the main device for accessing the internet and interacting with people all around the world. Now we have wonderful handheld devices that we take with us and do that and more.<br /><br />The real issue is not that people aren&#39;t blogging anymore is that they have moved to other things that &quot;blog&quot; for them. <br /><br />Its all one click and its posted ala Twitter, Facebook and other social media. You really have to see the content created as a whole instead of focusing on a blog.<br /><br />Currently search engines are focusing on real time data. Public opinion is changing on a minute rate and trying to capture those up to the minute updates on twitter, flickr and FB is the key.nibaqhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16786730960488009426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023991709134950870.post-45017700334004357152009-09-30T11:34:48.785+03:002009-09-30T11:34:48.785+03:00I called the death of blogging a couple years ago for the simple reason no one wants to sit in front of a computer anymore. <br /><br />It made sense when that was the main device for accessing the internet and interacting with people all around the world.

Please keep reading and participate by sending us photos.<br />I see you have a nice gaming blog yourself, did you ever watch our show on Ithnain.com?<br />Thanks for the comment!Redbelthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07338152724455215900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023991709134950870.post-51769650791538947652009-09-30T10:22:00.441+03:002009-09-30T10:22:00.441+03:00yeah I agree. I would like to add that the simplicity of creating a blog might be another reason for millions of people creating useless blogs and leaving them pilled up shadowing the rest of the good ones. Aside from that, I think here in Bahrain, bloggers are very little to be found and the majority of people still don&#39;t know what blogs are and people like us are the only ones know about them and check them out. Anyways, I bothered you with all this blabbering, just don&#39;t give up on blogging because I think there are still people reading them and Mahmood Al-Yousif reading it is a reason enough for you to keep blogging ;)<br /><br />P.S: I loved the idea of Arablish, I have it on my google reader to catch up with anything new you add. Keep up the good work :)Alihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07416738388025187778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023991709134950870.post-36315225774913038922009-09-30T09:18:37.898+03:002009-09-30T09:18:37.898+03:00Seriously Mahmood, me getting an iPhone is the only thing you got out of the article?<br />The problem is more severe than I thought.Redbelthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07338152724455215900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023991709134950870.post-12506127740083776402009-09-30T08:24:40.778+03:002009-09-30T08:24:40.778+03:00an iPhone? now that&#39;s a turn for the books from Mr. Omnia Whatchamakallit is the best thing there is!<br /><br />I&#39;m glad you saw the light at last.<br /><br />From an on-again-off-again-blogger ;)Mahmood Al-Yousifhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12299746072347531033noreply@blogger.com
