Just a random bit of interesting information. The new media formula: consume, produce, share. I would say DUH but I never put the phenomenon to words myself. This pattern is particularly evident in the realm of fashion blogs. I don't know what I'd do without the 50+ blogs on my google reader that keep me updated everyday. I'd probably be buying a lot of magazines. And I'd probably be always just a step behind too. Yep. Keep on blogging and sharing folks.

I really enjoyed that!! For a while I've been living this, but not understanding it!!I can no longer sit in front of the TV for too long without feeling like I'm wasting away...letting life pass me. Meanwhile, when I'm blogging, or leaving a comment on someone else's blog, I feel like I'm participating...having an impact...
Thanks for sharing ;) !!!
Yes doesn't watching TV feel like you've just consumed an inordinate amount of junkfood? It makes me feel slightly queasy and jittery. I'm glad you enjoyed it Mimi!
One more thing THAAAAANK YOU for mentioning google reader in this post! Can you believe I didn't know about it? Yup, I spent waaaay too much time each day clicking on my favourite blogs to see if there was anything new. I'm a new woman now!!! :)
