blogging is dead

Although he has harbored high hopes for citizen journalism and punditry, AsiaPundit is joining the multitude of voices who are saying that the blogging phenomena is dead. Now that the term has been seized upon by Taiwan property developers, it is essential to find a new name for the medium.

    I vote for calling them clogs… it’s next in line in the alphabet and it’s got that counterculture, back to basics vibe to it.

    Hi AsiaPundit, I’m a reader of your blog and I’ve added you to my newest development project http://www.millionbloggerpage.com
    Its not just a pixel page, I want to build a community for bloggers to exchange links and build a better blog search engine. It will also raise money for charity. I’m using the pixel page idea to get things started. I wanted to get the ball rolling with a handful of quality blogs and I thought your blog would be a good choice. If you write a blog post about the project or place a badge on your blog (found here http://millionbloggerpage.com/blog.jsp) then I can make you eligible to win the prizes as well. It would really help get the word out and be much appreciated. I’m giving a large part of proceeds back to members and to charity. If you are not interested, no problem, just thought I would let you know. Thanks.

    Best Regards,

    John Goodall
