The Unstoppable Blogging Juggernaught

Jan 07, 2005

According to Technorati 23,000 new weblogs are created every week. This shows how eager people are to express themselves given a choice. Blogging is democratization in its true sense. As usual, Microsoft has been a late starter. It has launched a new blogging service called MSN Spaces and as usual, it is full of its boring self. There was a time I used to like this company but now they seem more like an innovation parasite. Whenever there is some new technology or trend, Microsoft pokes its nose, destroys the original innovation and replaces it with a mediocre alternative. By the first look I know I’m not going to use MSN Spaces, neither for myself, nor for my clients.
