I'm digging back in again and keeping abreast of grassroots media.
I had been following tech and media blogs ever since I first heard the word 'weblog' at the catalyst event to ETech in 2001 (actually I still consider O'Reilly's P2P conference to be the first ETech). Everyone at the conference appeared to be a blogger. "Huh, a what?" I asked. While I began reading, I couldn't imagine finding the time to indulge in writing.
Yet I scurried to get my new blog up in time (I'd abandoned my 2002 blog) for Etech 2003. It'd have beeen worse than showing up without a business card.
Somehow I got sidetracked into mainly participating in the business blog community for more than the past year. (This being a business blog that blurs that distinction because my life blurs the distinction.)
I recall that innovation happens at the intersection - at the crossroads - of diverse fields so it's time to venture out further afield.
I'll be writing original content here on my musings on how developments in grassroots media and new media affect business in general while the companion linkblog is just that - links without the context, the synthesis - but the fodder for my synthesized, crystallized thoughts and projects.
