Yes, I think you are right. It after all, boils down to what ultimately you want from your blogging - whether it's blogging for blogging's sake, or hoping to make some real money. After a trial period, we are all free to choose our way. Do miss some who actually write well tough. Hi there Markk, most glad to hear from you.

Yes, I think you are right. It after all, boils down to what ultimately you want from your blogging - whether it’s blogging for blogging’s sake, or hoping to make some real money. After a trial period, we are all free to choose our way.

Do miss some who actually write well tough.

Guess you're right that there seems to be a slowing down among some bloggers. Maybe some have gone into the Dip or cul-de-sac. It looks like 2008 is seeing some new directions taken by bloggers. Some of us have come to realize that being a blogging social butterfly is taking up too much precious time. Social visitors are not very good for those who are trying to make money online. The thinking now is to get true search engine visitors and move into the niche blogs scene. You can keep one personal blog for all the thoughts you want to put in there while niche blogs will quietly grow and earn residual income for niche bloggers without much attention from the owner. Once bloggers are better focused, they don't need to "force write" everyday. Most don't have the energy and mental power to chug along this way. There'll be a time when one gets into a writer's block mode or entering a burnout phase. As for me, I'm slowing down with a purpose. No point scurrying around the blogosphere. Blog with a sharp focus on things and don't worry about the herd. Good thoughtful piece, Grace. Guess you’re right that there seems to be a slowing down among some bloggers.
