Blogging Vs. Microblogging: Twitter’s Global Growth Flattens, While WordPress’ Picks Up

Sensationalism and a doomsday premise always sells in a pithy headline. I'm more in sync. with this Techcrunch blogger on his sign-off words:

"So is blogging back, while microblogging is on the skids? A one-month spike in the popularity of blogs doesn’t tell you much of anything, but in any case it’s the wrong question. Blogging never really went away, and was in fact helped by Twitter, which is becoming the preferred feed reader for many people (thanks to services like Twitterfeed).

And don’t count out microblogging just yet. Twitter is finally rolling out improvements to its site such as Lists and the new Retweet button. Once geo-location features kick in, Twitter’s growth could come back with a vengeance."

2010 will be extremely interesting.
