Historical Shifts
|
|
It's interesting to note two things.
|
|
1) Blogs went from static->dynamic->static being hip.
|
|
-- Some of this was motivated by technological fashion.
|
|
2) Comments went from being inessential->essential->inessential.
|
|
-- This latter point is largely related to shifts in social networks.
|
|
-- No more livejournal, RSS feeds don't promote communities.
|
|
-- Blogs are platforms designed for content syndication/publishing, not intelligent discourse.

|
|
;; support old URLs via use of post-aliases?
