There are a number of tools to help bloggers build their 'community' but it is not a simple task and one indeed that can be frustrating. RSS does seem to undercount the traffic. I hope Schmitt is reflecting on the power of publishing tools like blogger and the opportunity that remains to harness the intellectual output that these tools enable. If that is not the case then 'why own blogger' is really answered cynically - more ad inventory.

It can be discouraging.

Google live off people, their whole strength has been using the extra information that people give to a network in the way they use it, but it's never individuals, always the crowd. 35 million's a big crowd. It's good to own blogger because you've immediately got 35 million people being very interested in a few pages each. Who cares if anyone else reads them? I don’t think that’s quite right.
