There’s been a bit of talk lately in the technosphere about the role of blogs in the new real-time web.

Sometimes emotional.

I’m not alone…it seems many formerly active bloggers are now sharing most of their content everywhere but a traditional blog. I think I need to move to a new server, and I don’t have the time or energy to focus on the change. No matter how hard I tried to make it easier, blogging is still a chore.

Unfortunately, this was a matter of bad timing. The geeks are rolling their eyes at the obvious advice, but the average, every day blogger with a self-hosted install doesn’t think of these things. They credited me $20, and assured me that what happened wouldn’t happen again. The plugin I use is easy. Just do it.

Ecto: This was my favorite editor for a long time. It hit me a couple of times. Well-known knit blogger Stephanie Pearl-McPhee complains about it here. As I see it, if you want to use an offline editor on a Mac you only have 3 choices, each with its own strengths and overwhelming weaknesses. Even if you saved a previous version.

Contrary to what the bloggers want you to believe, email is not dead. I’ve been using Campaign Monitor to test new templates, but there’s a small per-test cost and it’s time consuming. One of the things I have to do for my job at C3 on a regular basis is produce our monthly e-newsletter. By a very wide margin.

Here are some other bloggers that are writing their nonprofit resolutions at Convio’s invitation: Beaconfire Wire. Help send me to the NetSquared Conference Okay, time for shameless begging and plugging… I’m really interested. That’s my resolution. Nope, just coincidence. Beth Kanter. Connection Café. Everyday Giving.
