My last posts have triggered a few comments, more posts and email messages from people saying that I should not quit blogging. This wasn't my intention before and it's even less my intention after all these nice messages. :-)

I guess I'm simply waiting for the next wave.

Maybe, as Gary pointed out, we drifted away from the center. I think that we are moving towards a multi-centered blogosphere and we simply don't have the tools to analyze it yet. The 100 top blogs are not significant for us as they used to be, but most probably they are not significant for anybody anymore. We'll need new tools to find new centers and keep conversations flowing.

Meanwhile, best wishes to Dave for his 9th blog anniversary. :-)
