Jeff, in short, thank you. Initially, I rued the growth of blogs as so much Bo Peabody (remember him?) homepages-r-us. But it really became clear when I tried to relaunch an entire publication’s online presence — you were warned! — atop Blogsmith, the engine behind Weblogs Inc. I have to say, it’s a grand experiment and we’re just now seeing the benefits.

To your other points on customer service (I won’t say the D word), the blog platform, more than anything else, puts us in direct contact with our readership. I have to say that even the sometimes complaints evolve into pretty warm conversations in zero time.

So, blogs are what you make of ‘em. Indeed.

The limits of his intellect affecting the power of his blog? Indeed.

Through a weblog, a single individual can be connected to and can affect an almost unlimited number of other individuals.

From a practical standpoint, your audience is limited only by the power of your intellect.

Jeff’s blog is an excellent example of this

Isn’t it common for people (me, for one, sometimes) to define something unfamilier and make the topic totall boring?

“The blog is like no form ever invented before. It can be a diary, a column, a notice board, a one-person literary magazine, a one-person newspaper, a picture gallery, a practical joke.”

Lose definition: Websites created and owned by individuals for purpose of self-publishing, self-expression and communications.

But of course, everything might change tomorrow!

Blogs can be, and are anything you want them to be. It would take a guy his entire life to read all the political blogs, and he would never get through them all because more come on line each day. Not to mention blogs focused on tech issues, TV show discussions, travel and kitties.

Define blogs? Define life.
