Blogging and Web 2.0

A friend of mine sent me this cartoon, via facebook. The title is "blogs become even less useful." I have to disagree blogging, and the integration of all of ones online activity is amazing. The fact that I am able to set up a site in which I can tell people what I am doing (via twitter), what I am listening to (via last.fm), what I am reading (via del.ic.ious), where I have worked (via linkedin), who I am (via facebook), and what I have seen (via flickr), is incredible. 

Years ago if a person wanted to know any of this you'd have to ask, now if a friend is like hey I wonder what he's up to, its easy to find out. Don't get me wrong conversations with people are equally important but I think conversing with one another and technology must meet and work together.
