Blogging about blogging

18 Key Observations about the State of Blogging in 2011 at JeffBullas.com is a fascinating read for those of us who blog, or even those who love to read blogs.  He notes what he's learned in the past year:

  • People want more Infographics
  • The continuing evolution of an increasingly “visual web” that communicates quickly and efficiently with images.(Pinterest and Tumblr)
  • People “love” sharing
  • Social media has supercharged blogging
  • People’s continuing obsession with Facebook
  • Twitter is still an enigma
  • The contagious leverage  of “liquid content“
  • People’s thirst for learning
  • The power of a competitor to drive change as the success of Google+ has increased the speed of evolution at Facebook
  • The mobile Internet cannot be ignored
Really interesting stuff for those of us who blog for fun and/or profit.
