– Blogs build bridges between communities (and different cultures)
– Understand the blogosphere, trust the transparence
– blogs are driven by passion and authority
– we need more people to bring blogs to ‘normal’ people
– behind all products are people; consumers now want to talk with these people (commercial aspect of blogging, conversation with the audience)
– who need to be afraid of blogs? Bad journalist, not the good ones
– mass media < -- > medias for the masses
– someone looking for blogs is looking for opinions

Hi MC,
I enjoy reading your half-assed drunken ramblings.
– Blogs build bridges between communities (and different cultures)Many (most) blogs build on hyper-specialized niche demographics. Right, they might be read by people in different countries (from the Commonwealth), but they draw on an incestuous pool of congenital readers with identical interests and backgrounds (and culture — oh sorry, you eat poutine, you’re from a completely different culture then that hipster from Denmark who listens to Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and likes to fiddle with his iPod).Please list blogs with cross-generational and cross-gender appeal. I’m sure there are some, but they are not the norm.
