I am getting tired of services like Blogniscient.com, Tech Memeorandum, Blogebrity and others that do the same thing. What is the topic point this time around? It goes back to the argument of giving the circular pat on the back to all the “top bloggers” out there today. These services and others pretty much do the same thing, each one just has a different twist on things. Lets just take talking points and posts from the most famous of the blogging world and give everybody else and their grandmother the finger.
Which one is more exciting though? Reading the same old content from the same old folks, or finding something new and original to enjoy. Don’t get me wrong, what some of these bloggers do is good, some is even great. The point of the matter is that in the “A-List” blogging world, there is no room for growth. It is nothing more than a boys’ club. With podcasting and other “Web 2.0″ ideas that are out there, the main focus seems to be finding new content. It is about reinventing the wheel so that folks have more choices and flavors out there to choose from.
So who is going to do the Star Search or American Idol for the blogging world? I think that might be the only way some of us can get out from under the thumb of not being “popular” enough with the in crowd. I feel like I’m in high school all over again.
