Yes, Richard, Jason is nuts (blogs still trump bookmarks)

November 27, 2005 By

Richard MacManus pointed at a post from Jason Calacanis where he said that subscribing to a Del.icio.us bookmark feed is cooler than subscribing to the same person’s blog feed.

That’s nuts, sorry Jason.

By the way, Jason, I unsubscribed from a bunch of your blogs tonight. Why? Cause your guys put the same post on all your blogs. If you’re gonna do that I only need to be subscribed to one of your feeds, thank you very much.

    That highlights a problem with a lot of bloggers – that they are pretty incestuous, echoing a lot of what the feeds they read are saying.

    For instance, say I subscribe to A, B, C & D. If B mentions what A is saying, and links to it, and likewise C to B, and D to C, then soon I’m reading the same thing again and again, and I get bored and overloaded and look to reduce my subscriptions.

    Andrew: But that’s what blogging is about. Company ABC does 123, and you have blogs with commentary from all your favorite bloggers.

    What we need, and it’s annoying me that we don’t have it yet, is to get Gabe from memeorandum to make a meme api that any programmer can uses so that our rss readers shows us all of our content in a much more organized way.

    “But that’s what blogging is about. Company ABC does 123, and you have blogs with commentary from all your favorite bloggers.”

    I think the point Stefan is that many of the bloggers aren’t adding any significant commentary, rather they are just link to and mentioning sites with significant content.

    Bubba, well thats why an RSS reader, with a meme engine would be great because you could see all the posts linking to one story, and it will help tackle the giant amounts of data we sort thru everyday.

    I hope Scoble can talk to Gabe :)

    Hey Stefan, you can talk to me too! Thanks for the suggestion. I think what you proprose is a great feature.

    Still, it’s not like I can just flip a switch to activate it. It will cost man-years of development to make it work well, and for various technical reasons, I think it will benefit a smaller number of people than most believe. I expect to make gradual progress toward that capabilty, but I don’t see the business justification for jumping in headfirst…
