Slow is just that: slow. What hit me though is that just a couple of years ago I considered blogs to be the vessels of a major acceleration in media (compared, for instance, with traditional journalism)... and now they appear bulky if compared to microblogging dynamics. It's just amazing. @Thomas: precisely, threatened in the shape we used to know, at least. An interesting exercise will be keeping an eye open for what does this trend <em>retrieve</em> and what does it <em>reverse</em> @Folletto: I didn’t say that slow is bad. Slow is just that: slow.

I've been wondering about the silence of the net myself recently http://www.thomaspurves.com/2007/07/31/has-facebook-killed-blogging/ We talked about at that same workshop that the rise of social presence (facebook and twitter etc.) would have to obsolesce or replace something and that blogging must be on that list of threatened media. so it seems to be happening. Thanks for the kind words Riccardo.

That is, exactly like people. :) But we already discussed this, we're a bit on stall. :P I've got to add a consideration: slow doesn't mean "bad", in any way. Slow and Fast must coexist (exactly like personal/social, aristocratic/popular), the issue is to allow them to merge. I've a fixed image in my mind: an artist, alone in his studio, drawing beautiful scenes, and the same artist, at a party, socializing. :) As I’ve always stated, we need a personal (aristocratic) but networked (social media) structure.
