Blogging, the experience of it, really comes down to two things. First, the experience of expressing yourself, then second, the pushing a publish button. That’s it. It’s really that simple.
So when Sam and Wayne start talking about blogging not working anymore, I keep thinking to myself that they’re right, and they’re wrong.
They’re right that most likely in the future more and more bloggers will move into the Twitter type “publishing”. However, they’re wrong when they say blogging isn’t going to work anymore, it will.
It’s simply going to transform into variants of new things.
In the end, blogging is not defined by Wordpress or Blogger.com software. It’s defined by that magic “publish” button.
So long as that button exists, blogging will live forever.
Unless of course Wayne has invented some type of “mind thought-to hard drive” methodology which does not require a publish button. Frankly, I wouldn’t be surprised if he did.
