Internet Blogs come into adulthood. If you find a specialized niche in the online the world will survive. If not, skarłowacieją or disappear entirely.
time and place of action: Warsaw, May 2009, the People's drama: well-known blogger hiding behind a pseudonym Kataryna ► and journalists "Diary." The essence of the matter: more complicated than it may seem. Kataryna blogging actively for at least four years, not yet but its identity has not been the subject of public discussion. She became the only once son Justice Minister ► demanded censorship of the blog. In this way, the son of the minister Czumy together with the "Official", which exposed the Kataryna, has written to the global Internet phenomenon named by the American journalist Nicholas Carr's death blogosphere.
His argument is as blunt as surprising when on average every search engine Technorati 2 seconds are growing emergence of a new blog. But blogosphere actually died, because - As Carr argues - the elite, whose representative on the Polish scene, among others Kataryna blog, became comparable in form and content to traditional media . The rest of the garbage dump is not worthy of attention, a collection of grafomańskich elaboratów, full of bad taste, and proving the inadequacy of authors. The best blogs, similar to the mainstream media, according to Carr also lost the qualities of freshness and originality, which over the years built its position in the virtual world.
quality gave way to the quantities and figures seem to confirm this hypothesis. Throughout the world, according to Universal McCann report in March last year, the number of established blogs have approached to 185 million (in Polish, there were more than 3 million). This meant that statistically they ran almost every fifth Internet user. Recent data for the moment no, but I can see that the blogosphere became a mass product and cost-effective. And as cheap, it usually quality and vile.
Initial assumptions were clearly more ambitious. When in 1997, John Barger, an employee of Northwestern University, first used the term "weblog" (a combination of the words "web" and "log") for determining a personal entry on the website, the web was still a haven for the intellectual dissidents like the creators of Google and Yahoo In Poland the first blogs at roughly the same time they began to carry on the free trade magazine editors Pagina "Chip." The definition of a blog was too simple - it's poor form, but rich in content page on which the author systematically shared with the readers thoughts and experiences, we are counting on a response. Equally easy was sifting valuable position, because with a little perseverance all blogs of the world could be viewed in one day . Age of the Internet media just came.
Today, as estimated by Technorati up to 10 percent. Blogs are updated regularly and is content which might be of interest even to someone else except the creator, moving się po blogosferze wymaga dużej wiedzy i umiejętności. Tym bardziej że obok blogów klasycznych (osobistych, np. rodzinnych czy tematycznych, jak ekonomiczne lub informatyczne), zawierających jedynie wpisy, pojawiają się nowe formy: blogi agregujące wpisy z innych witryn, fotoblogi ze zdjęciami, audio- i wideoblogi z nagraniami, moblogi stworzone do redagowania przez komórkę, a ostatnio także mikroblogi w postaci krótkich jednozdaniowych wpisów w serwisie Twitter, informujących znajomych np., co robimy lub co zrobiło na nas wrażenie. Są też, co było łatwe do przewidzenia, hybrydy wszystkich tych wersji. Rację miał zatem Andy Warhol, mówiąc in 1968 that "in the future, everyone will have the opportunity zaznania own 15 minutes of fame." The blogosphere has made it trivially easy task.
Some abductees bloggers of international renown, such as Internet entrepreneur and writer Jason Calacanis, recently folded their blogs disappointed that something that until recently was only a noble hobby, these demonstrations today is geared to earnings or flattering the tastes cheap. - The importance of blogs as part of an Internet ecosystem is weakened, because blogging is today activity as mundane as dishwashing - notes Chris Urbanowicz, author of one of the most interesting Polish MediaCafé blogs about the media. - The paradox of their existence, however, lies in the fact that this is precisely the moment when the greatest blogs of your voice in public debate even surpass the traditional media.
sensation in the U.S. presidential elections of 4 November 2008 was not the result, but the next day published a statement of the most popular web pages on which America has followed the campaign. In fourth place, just behind the stations CNN, MSNBC and Fox News, came unexpectedly gossip blog aggregator Drudge Report. The same man who plunged into Bill Clinton's affair with Monica Levinsky. popularity of the blog set up by Matt Drudge'a results exceeded a web of "The New York Times or ABC News .
The Drudge Report losing even a well-known political blog The Huffington Post, regularly publishes records of such celebrities as Barack Obama, two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Norman Mailer and actress Diane Keaton. Instead, in the opinion-newspaper or popular Internet television station prefer to look for information on the results of the election in gossip blog, because I believe that that is where you'll find entries fastest-leaks from people involved in the campaign or the election of committee members.
