¿La muerte de la blogósfera?

Era cuestión de segundos. Nomás me entusiasmo con una tecnología o herramientas y viene algún oráculo de los medios y me mata la ilusión, y con mi ilusión mata la tecnología completa.
The Economist habla en esta nota sobre la maduración de la blogósfera y cómo se ha vuelto un lugar más tradicional, predecible y, por tanto, menos alternativo. Incluso se carga a Twitter, que ya es una herramienta añeja ante los ojos de estos iconoclastas.
Vaya, que según ellos es momento ya de irme buscando otra actividad. Quizá.
Dice The Economist:
"Blogging has entered the mainstream, which—as with every new medium in history—looks to its pioneers suspiciously like death. To the earliest practitioners, over a decade ago, blogging was the regular posting of text updates, and later photos and videos, about themselves and their thoughts to a few friends and family members. Today lots of internet users do this, only they may not think of it as blogging. Instead, they update their profile pages on Facebook, MySpace or other social networks.
They may also “micro-blog” on services such as Twitter, which recreate the raw, immediate and intimate feel of early blogs. Twitter messages, usually sent from mobile phones, are fewer than 140 characters long and answer the question “What are you doing?” Tellingly, Evan Williams, the co-founder of Blogger—an early blogging service that is now owned by Google, the Wal-Mart of the internet—now runs Twitter, which he regards as the future."
