Greetings Nickolass,

No it’s not a waste of time as long as you’re commenting on MY blog. But the good thing is at least you’re noticing it too. I should take my own advice though since for the past week I’ve done everything on the web lately EXCEPT blogging. Ugh.

Thanks for visiting!

[...] Jun 29, 2007 in English, web2.0, web 2.0 I simply had to put this question after reading a blog-line at Lincoln Adams I quote: Got photos you want to show the world? Upload them to Flickr. For videos, there’s YouTube. For music, there’s Last.FM, iLike, Garageband and so on. For those who like to write, network or blog, we have MySpace, LiveJournal, Xanga, Vox and blah blah blah, ad infinitum. And then of course we have the specialty sites like Twitter and Tumblr and blah blah blah ad infinitum. Good grief. While I admit that all these sites have their uses respectively, it also means you’re investing a whole lotta time and resources on just about everything except your own blog. People may not even come to your site anymore because your content is now available elsewhere, whether on a MySpace server or a YouTube channel or God only knows where else you’ve been going. Web 2.0 then has not only stolen your time and content, it’s taken your traffic too, and with it a chance for monetization. [...]

Hi Lincoln
I couldn’t agree more -It’s scary. For half an hour ago I started in front of my own blog looking down the list of my latest RSS-feeds from my favorite news-channels - saw a headline, wich I had to follow, saw another headline in the News portal about the Norwegian Facebook-mania, found your blog looking for relating stories on Facebook, as I read that Norway has had 2400% more facebookusers in only 4 months (That’s 24 times more - you got it right!)
Instead of writing my own piece or focusing on my proffesional blog-writing at my norwegian job-blog or my own new test-youtube-clone-portal at fjordviking.com, I went strolling down the Googlestreet to Technorati - scrolled around for some time - found your blog-entry and went straight on reading your post and am now spending time writing this…

Actually - I think you hit me on the spot!

Greetings from Nickolass in Oersta(Norway) ( Sorry but I only have a few english post in my wordpress-blog…but I simply had to respond to your post.
And I haven’t even sent you a link to my corporate web…So tell me: I this a waste of time?
