  • Former bloggers said they were too busy to write lengthy posts and were uninspired by a lack of readers. Others said they had no interest in creating a blog because social networking did a good enough job keeping them in touch with friends and family.
  • some blogging services like Tumblr and WordPress seem to have avoided any decline.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • WordPress is mostly for serious bloggers, not the younger novices who are defecting to social networking.
  • While the younger generation is losing interest in blogging, people approaching middle age and older are sticking with it.

Visitors and Residents: A new typology for online engagement - 0 views

  •  
    This article proposes a continuum of 'Visitors' and 'Residents' as a replacement for Prensky's much‐criticised Digital Natives and Digital Immigrants. Challenging the basic premises upon which Prensky constructed his typology, Visitors and Residents fulfil a similar purpose in mapping individuals' engagement with the Web. We argue that the metaphors of 'place' and 'tool' most appropriately represent the use of technology in contemporary society, especially given the advent of social media. The Visitors and Residents continuum accounts for people behaving in different ways when using technology, depending on their motivation and context, without categorising them according to age or background. A wider and more accurate representation of online behaviour is therefore established.
