Blogging grows by getting smaller
CBS MarketWatch's Frank Barnako talks to Mena Trott about moblogging and the future of blogs and there's some interesting background on the growth of the entire blogging industry. [ Six Apart Professional Network via Eyebeam reBlog]
"There's a new kind of Web log: Call it a me-blog.
People are posting their camera phone pictures to remind themselves where they were yesterday, lines of computer code that can easily be cut and pasted, even grocery lists.
"I keep my own moblog [mobile blog] with a camera phone," said Mena Trott, co-founder of Six Apart, the software firm that developed two blog products; Movable Type and TypePad. "Only five or six people read it, like my parents, so they can keep up with what I'm doing. It's an easy way to keep a record of your life, for yourself."
