Blog On

I leave for Europe in three days. Deadlines loom. Many things need canceling. Numerous things need packing. Blogging may suffer.

My copy of 2005: Blogged arrived yesterday. If you aren’t already aware it’s a kind of Best of British for the past year, compiled by Tim Worstall. (There’s even a post by a certain EiNY.) I’ve had a quick flick through and it contains some writing that goes a long way towards supporting Tim’s idea that someone should really be syndicating blogs to the print media. For a review by Rafael Behr in the Observer, see here.

And if you think 2005: Blogged may make a nice stocking filler then don’t forget about Blog, the book I worked on over the past year. Obviously, I’m biased (I contributed about one-third of the interviews in the book) but I have to say that many of the ideas and insights from bloggers and blogging experts are still being discussed today and will be discussed for years to come. Plus, if you buy a copy my editors will make money which will finance them to pay me for future book projects For a review by Hugh Hewitt in the New York Post see here.
