I know blogging on blogging can be boring, but please explain more. I'm interested in what's happening down the road, though I'm still trying just to write regularly and be read occasionally.
I've enjoyed Althouse because of the mix of personal, pop cultural, local, political, and universal. It still reads informally and intimately. Does it not feel that way anymore? Has it become formulaic in your eyes or burdensome?
Some bloggers, even popular ones have quit after a year or two or five. Do you think there's a natural blogging lifespan?
Henway: don't worry, I'm not bored. I love blogging and love having high traffic. In fact, you'd be surprised how often I check it. I was just remembering how it felt early on, which was a different feeling.
I do feel some obligation with respect to certain new Supreme Court cases, and this past week it was hard getting them read especially because I'm teaching 2 hours a day.
But mostly I just write whatever I want, whatever interests me. Like, I didn't bother to write about Bush's speech last night.
When I look back at my very first post (April '03), it looks so pedestrian, so generic. No links, no post titles, nothing on the sidebar. But it's cool to go back every once in a while and see how the thing has grown.

Would that be "Blogstalgia?" Sounds like a country in Rocky & Bullwinkle!
Some of us are still pretty obscure.

Back then... I still feel that way :P
