DC Blogs Noted
Life after Blogging
WonL
Good bloggers connect with their audience and so when a writer decides to end a blog readers often feel a sense of loss. That's what makes WonL's Life after Blogging a standout project. She's interviewing ex-bloggers who succeeded in
finding an audience and asking them to explain why they stopped. In her first installment she interviews AUA, whose popular blog, Direct Current is still missed. (That's judging from the 120 comments - and rising - that have been posted by the AUA fan club on his blog.) Excerpt from the interview:My blog was discovered by the Bartender at my neighborhood dive. He and I had never talked about blogging before and as far as I know, his involvement with the internet is essentially limited to the Google search engine. When someone who isn't very "plugged in" finds you, you know there's too much out thereAlso Noted:
