Two Perspectives on the Future of Blogging
Successful technology blog builders Michael Arrington, of TechCrunch fame, and Rafat Ali, PaidContent founder, sparred off in a recent New York Times article, each coming out with their views on what blogging is, as well as what the future of blogging looks like for their respective companies. Arrington's blog style is personalized and emotional, and he came out swinging on the side of organic growth in blogging business. Ali, alternatively, has a more reserved, journalistic blogging style, and sees blogs taking shape more like traditional media, covering news and a wide range of content categories.
