Hi Kenneth,
I'm surprised not to see any other comments here!
This IS the wave of the future! It's astonishing to see the amount of information and new technology coming out to meet the needs of this highly popular venue.
One very interesting thing that happened recently was the publishing of a book, Bagdad Burning, that was taken entirely from one year of a blog by the same name written by a woman living in Bagdad. I understand a movie is now being made, as well.
How many amateur writers would have an opportunity like this in any other venue?
Incidently, for anyone who wants to see the blog I'm referring to (very interesting), it's http://riverbendblog.blogspot.com or
http://riverbendblog.blogspot.com/atom.xml for your reader.
To see how this blog rates and more importantly, who links to it, type Bagdad Burning in the Google search window. This blog became this popular without any fancy tricks - just a determination to write every day.
God bless,
Dave
