Sarah Perez at Read/Write Web wonders whether or not content is finally / just now becoming a commodity, referencing the Shyftr saga over the weekend, and with particular reference to bloggers. The funny thing (of course, not in a ‘ha ha’ way) is that this truth that she is stumbling upon, is one of the [...]
My life — as, perhaps your life — is complicated. There are a lot of competing concerns, from personal issues, to work issues, to family issues and beyond. And that’s not even counting the blogging.

So I’m a tech blogger of the new media persuasion. And there’s a conference that many new media bloggers are going to — perhaps you’ve heard of the one Mike Arrington and Jason Calacanis is putting together, TechCrunch 40.
