Frequency of updating
A Penny For... (found via Corporate BloggingBlog)asks wheather there is a mimimum for blogging frequency. Personally I don't care. In my definition of weblogs in my thesis I got rid of the 'updated frequently' passage that is common in current definitions of blogs. If I look at my own behaviour compared to others I blog rather infrequently and not with a clear rythm. I don't blog everyday, some weeks I don't have the correct spirit to blog. OK, maybe that has lead to readers dropping of the radar, but that doesn't matter to me. I blog most of the time in a reflective manner and I'm not always in a reflective mood. I write for myself, I think through writing and blogging helps me find people that can join in my reflection. I certainly don't want to bother those people who do read my blog with meaningless posts just because I want to keep the frequency up. The question asked is irrelevant to me. Maybe people abandon their blogs, only because they feel the pressure of others that they constantly should produce text. Let people decide for themselves how often they want and are able to write.
