I was at a local Indianapolis bar called MudShots last night and I saw this sticker pasted to the wall in the men’s restroom. I’ve taken this as the final nail in the coffin for ‘blogging’ as a buzzword. It’s hit critical mass and it’s all downhill from here. The news media has picked up the term, it’s made its way into art and pop culture, and now it’s even being plastered to the walls in bathrooms.
So, what’s next? Blogging is still a great business tool. It’s still a fun tool for personal use as well. This is a practice that needs to be stripped to its essence and re-invented. Once the buzz is gone, it will still be useful for many things, and that’s what really excites me.
