I saw a cartoon posted at my workout club yesterday in which a customer announced to the attendant – I am here for my annual workout. Workout clubs are used to the phenomena – the new year brings people with good intentions who soon remember why they did not already work out. It ends up taking time and to be a lot of work.
I was reminded of this when encountering an article about the Blogger Backlash. The year 2004 was the year of the blog (according to some) and the columnist writing this article says that the year 2005 will be the year of the blogger backlash. He argues that some new opportunities – audio and video blogs – will add to the backlash. Activities that sound like great ideas still end up to require work, commitment, and sometimes a little skill. I wonder what the average number of posts per blog per year is. I wonder what the average number of podcasts will be per year.
