Multi-blogging

It's been another one of those multi-tasking days. I'd a meeting with Owen McFadden about our blogging documentary this morning. He's just back from recording a music documentary for Radio 2 in Portland, Oregon, so he knows a thing or two about multi-tasking. Actually, some of you will know about this already, since Owen has been recording interviews with various Northern Irish bloggers (including some regular contributors to Will & Testament), while I've been recording a long interview with Mick Fealty, the founder of .

Mick was a great contributor. He's forgotten more about blogging than most of us know. The most difficult question we discussed was, predictably, about the future development of blogging. I've a sense that the online-offline distinction will evaporate completely in the next five years -- we will just be "on", all the time. We can also probably expect new technologies to unify and integrate our online experiences (bringing together radio, television, the internet, MP3 players, etc.). But beyond those more obvious transformations, how will the landscape of blogging change in the next five years? I'm interested in hearing from you on that -- and also about how blogging has affected your life.

I found it very interesting to see Mick's blog in July 2002

which personally I prefer to his present forum.

Anyway,I just hope blogs aren't all about fame and fortune,about getting on TV or Radio, about selling advertising. I hope that more ordinary people blog about everyday issues that they want aired.It's good to see individual bloggers building relationships with other bloggers by commenting on each others blogs and linking to each others blogs. I believe that this will increase and blogging will change the future of social interaction.
