Technology journalist Frank Catalano is shutting down his Random Bytes blog after a year. Why?
The answers lie in what he calls “two dirty little secrets”: it takes an awful lot of time, and odds are very few people are reading.
On The Other Hand, or Blogging’s Dirty Secrets
Okay, maybe Frank is right, but you know the old saying that “Cynics are right 90% of the time”, but that doesn’t mean that someone isn’t going to be succesful.
Also, blogging is an entry point to publishing. Maybe 99% of bloggers will never continue their work or expand to a larger audience, but those that work at it and offer an interesting site, may, over time, succeed. Good luck to them all. We need more press and more opinions, not less!
