Where to take the blog next?
May 13, 2008 |
Taking some time off is always a good way to reassess the current state of things. Being half-way through my almost two week long blog hiatus (thanks to some conference travel and vacation), I have started thinking about what to do next once I come back (besides switching hosts).
The blog has grown beyond any of my expectations this year (including having some headlines on TechMeme, joining Grand Effect and the l33t redditt, having more subscribers and hits to the blog than ever before), but right now, it’s starting to feel a bit stagnant to me.
Maybe it’s just the fact that the news cycle is heading for its summer slow-down, or maybe I really need that vacation coming next week.
But I think to keep the blog growing beyond where it is right now, I will need to make some changes.
Sometimes I wonder if I need to start getting more focused in the topics I cover, but then I enjoy just writing about whatever I feel I have something interesting to say about - and I’m definitely not going to hold back on what I’m passionate about - and I’m definitely not going to be left out on a good bitchmeme, no matter the topic.
I have also thought abut starting a second blog about a slightly different subject - still tech oriented, but with a very specific angle that really wouldn’t fit in here. But then, my time is limited and I’m not sure I can take on writing and promoting a second blog at this point (though I have the name registered).
Or maybe I will just continue doing things as I do today. As you can see, I’m not quite sure yet…
