It has also inspired me to subscribe to other blogs similar in nature. Blogs about ideas and thoughts, catablogging as you’ve called it. I used to think that news and technology blogs were the only site of value. But I’ve grossly underestimated inspirational blogs such as this one. Seeing what other people are doing, a glimpse to how they are doing it, and sometimes seeing video about them makes new media more tangible to me because I’m seeing the people behind the creations. It’s not just text, pictures, or entertainment its a direct link to the person putting their thoughts and ideas out there for the world to see. Which inspires me to do the same.

When I first started blogging a few years ago (I didn’t know it was blogging then, I called it updates ha ha) I had a real hard time putting my thoughts out there because I didn’t think they were of value. But as my readership grew I started to connect with more and more people who inspired me just as much as I inspired them which resulted in me continually putting my stuff out there. So the moral of my story is please don’t stop doing what your doing, don’t ever serialize your posts, and let Chris be Chris. My value in reading your blog is your story and your thoughts. A reality novel if you will.

Happy Holidays and don’t be a stranger.

I would also be reading here even if I didn’t know you. However, I’ve been reading far more often now than I did before we met professionally. Then, the items you posted that were “of value” to a theoretical audience weren’t always of direct value to me personally. But now, even when you’re stuck in an airport for an hour and have nothing to say otherwise, I feel I get more value from that, in a way.

I guess the questions is, Who are you looking to provide value to, and how? People you know (or who want to know you), about things that happen to you and things you care about, or people you don’t know, and about information you’re claiming to be an expert on?

Derisive a word as it may be, there’s a reason catbloggers have loyal readers — nobody wants a pitch, they want a story, and even better, a conversation. Mostly, they just want other people.
