Blogs in most areas go through two stages. In the first stage, they focus on the technology and the mechanics. The "geekery." But eventually this gets repetitive and boring. "This," writes Chris Garret, "is where many people give up." But there is a much more interesting layer under the mechanics of any discipline: the ideas and thoughts underlying those mechanics. "The answer is to find people who are interested in the same subject and have conversations with them! Twitter, forums, chat, real life, Skype, and so on." My problem with OLDaily has always been self-imposed limitations on the format - keep the number of posts per day down, keep the length of individual posts reasonable. Finding something to write about has never been a problem - because there is a wealth of conversation out there.
