  • Mark Dykeman  Well good, I don't have to worry about writing that eBook now... :) In all seriousness, you've done a great job of defining the stages of blogging in terms of fame and interection.

  •   Hutch Carpenter  Thanks Mark. Certainly had to guess what it's like for the later stage bloggers, but they write enough to understand what they're go through.

  • Mark Dykeman  James Chartrand of Men With Pens E-mailed me with this comment, which he asked me to share with everyone: "My fingers are actually the long, piano-playing type, but hey. They say that a brand is sealed by being the first. Find something that you can be first at - and then promote the *hell* out of it. Niebu is in our top three search terms. Still going strong. Heh. No longer #1 on Google, though. Whatever you search for has to be short and catchy - something easy to say that people think is fun to say."

  • Mark Dykeman  For one thing, there appears to be a growing number of individuals who are breaking away from the Techmeme echo chamber, as I've heard it referred to before, and trying to look elsewhere for new and interesting things. For a second thing, I think that a niche is forming for people who are thinking of ideas to use the newer Web 2.0 generation of tools in new and different ways. You have bloggers who focus on coding and apps vs. gadgets and hardware. You have people who look at the science, business, sociology, and psychology of technology - separately or together. These might not all be new segments, but I think they may be a bit more distinctly defined over time. The biggest thing that I think I see is bloggers who are moving away from industry standard things like the Technorati top 100 and Techmeme and moving in slightly different directions.
