Blogging defines me. It was a long ago before blogging culture came. You were define by what people think of you, what people want to define you, with whatever they claimed to know about you. Blogging brings a new game to the table. Blogging provide us a balancing tool. It’s no longer about what they think of us, but more to what they know and what we communicate to them about what and who we are.
It is interesting to listen last night. About whether Blogging is dead. One reason behind this statement is the absence of famous blogger from their former text and picture blogging platform into audio and video. A question suddenly appear whether blogging is really as powerful as what it has been talking about so far. Echo chamber is put as a suspect for blinding us with bouncing hype among ourselves, the blogging community (Andry S Huzain, FreSh 3.0)
A counter opinion suggest that the statement must be put into proper context. I found it has some point as assuming blogging is dead can also be considered echo chamber effect. The provided example of blogging is dead was more fitting US market, while significant growth can still be seen in Asia. (Budi Putra, FreSh 3.0)
Well, to be fair, echo chamber or not can be tested via a well prepared research. Indeed, a context need to be specified. It’s all relative. It’s not done until it’s done.
PS:

Was you claiming the title, and will write the post later ? Or was that the post itself ?

Maunya bikin article tersendiri. Tapi moodnya tak kunjung datang. Harusnya bisa nulis tentang: Musik atau Vokal, mana yang menentukan enaknya lagu?
