Ceramic Blogs, cont'- You might ask why there are not many potters doing blogs?  Maybe the biggest reason is lack of time and the small blogging ceramic community that is out there. Another is the veritable force of nature- ClayArt.  This email discussion group has numerous posts throughout the day, and a wide variety of subjects, with lots of responses, and has been going on for years.  It is a real community. I think other areas of interest support discussion groups and blogs, so it is perhaps only a matter of time before we'll see more of this in the ceramic arts community.  Blogs offer a unique medium to communicate  perspective(s). Probably the biggest difference, and a blog's strength, is the indepth view the reader gets of an individual's, or group's train of thought.  That is to say their interests are presented over a time line. 9:20:11 PM
