Web2.0 Sucked The Blogging Out Of Me

Molly recently lamented that twitter has sucked the blogging out of her. I’ve been feeling the same way for some time, though I was never as prolific a writer has she is.

Place Name Here Getting Old

Things are getting a little old and dusty around here as a result of me being quite busy with work as well as contributing more elsewhere on sites like flickr, ma.gnolia and newsvine.

As a result I’ve resorted to turning on comment moderation / manual approving of messages until I have more time to investigate solutions.
