Blog, worthy?

I typically get my news from one source, the ONION – sometimes just from the headlines because, sometimes they only have headlines. When I have a little extra time I’ll watch Weekend Report on Saturday Night Live, but I record it, so it is usually old news by the time I see it. I do, however, record every new episode of The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. I’m thinking about taking time off work so I can watch them. When I want to know what the weather is going to be like, instead of tuning into the local news, like most people, I just check in with my friends who get weather related migraines and old-injury pains. I also check facebook – the weather reports via pictures and status updates are usually pretty up to the minute.

The other day I stumbled upon this headline on one of the ONION articles, “Guy With 10,000 Tweets, 15 Followers About Ready To Hang It Up.” Although they had a story to accompany the headline, those ten words and two numbers really spoke to me. “Sounds like my blog, except he has double the followers,” I thought to myself. Like Gartner, although I never expected to have 500,000 followers, after three years of telling the world wide web what my friends and are doing I thought I would have at least 20+ steady followers. I regularly write what my friends and others believe to be blogworthy, but I can’t help but wonder, “Is this blog worthy?”
