I hereby officially announce that the linkblogs are taking off [list via Peter]. I believe this is actually a significant development; it says something about
the growth in the amount quality content on the web that we've been
experiencing lately. While I wouldn't have started a linkblog a year
ago when I knew of only about a dozen weblogs that interested me, I'm
now seriously considering starting one myself (as is Richard, and no
doubt many others).
Lately, I’ve realised that the real reason I keep my linkblog going is
the effect it has on my main weblog. By moving the links somewhere
else, my weblog becomes much less about what other people are saying,
and much more about what I am thinking and doing. This gives me more
motivation to actually get on with stuff, which gives me more to write
about.
