What’s a blog? The voice of a single person? If so, the new Techmeme Leaderboard has only a few blogs on it [disclosure: I'm a columnist on the #60 blog on the list]. Most, as Scoble points out, are community or professional efforts and the left-coast Scoble wonders if it spells the death of individual or personal blogging.
Techmeme notes that the list isn’t strictly a list of A-bloggers; rather, it’s which blogs had the highest rankings on Techmeme (if you don’t use Techmeme, this can be a tricky concept). Scoble’s going to Twitter, but I’m not a big user.
What’s notable is not that I’m blogging less frequently but that I’m writing more selectively with posts that focus mostly on my community interests. The signal-to-noise ratio in the local blogosphere has too much static for me and in spite of JR’s earnest question, it sounds like he was asking for the “big idea” and got more of the same old same old (that most bloggers criticize the candidates for offering).
