Say Everything: How Blogging Began, What It’s Becoming, and Why It Matters
Monday, March 8th, 2010
This is a pretty good history of the origins of blogging. There are some good stories here, and Rosenberg does a particularly good job on the history of political bloggers. He tends to ignore tech bloggers and has far too little to say about RSS and RSS readers. His analyses of “what it’s becoming” and “why it matters” have far less substance than the historical parts of the book though he has some interesting observations on the interaction of blogs and traditional media.
