What’s Good? – want a second opinion?
As to this, quoted from a post of Kent‘s :
“As an aside, are there any bad blogs in Australia?”
Define ‘Bad’… or ‘Good’ for that matter.
This is what’s great about the blogosphere – you just ‘voice’ what you want and leave the ‘listeners’ to decide what’s good and bad FOR THEM – in the context they live in. (There’s a simile that comes to mind around access to built environment and disability, but that’s another post).
To say if you want more readers write better stuff seems a bit silly. How do I know what constitute’s better for a given ‘listener’? (Though yes, I know Hugh, you’re talking about expressing from your soul and writing what’s better for yourself)
The point Mike and I’m trying to make is not that we want a ‘hierarcy-killer’ but we want to be able to find what’s good (precious, the Jewels) for us. In some ways the ‘heirarchy’ can even play a part to help that.

Great post and great podcast.
The basis for my aside is the sense I have that Australian bloggers really get it. You can’t tell from reading a name where someone is from, but it seems like every time I start reading a new blog that I like it ends up being done by somebody from Australia.
I don’t think I’ve seen a bad blog from Australia yet, but surely there must be some
Let me know when the next podcast is up!

How do you know? You don’t. You just do it anyway.
