My good friend Michel Martine has written Jazz Blogging – It’s the Notes You Don’t Play an excellent post in which he fiercely defends a blog post shouldn’t be perfect and shouldn’t try to be, because one of the key features of a blog is conversation and space should be left to the reader to join the discussion.
I agree with him but only in part.
I don’t think there is anything inherently wrong with informative blogs. Those that doesn’t have original content and just collect things around the web. In fact, I do read regularly a couple of them.
But I do think that a blogger who doesn’t put thoughts and feelings on his blog is missing a huge chance to learn.
