Goes to show that folks are reading blogs so they (the blogs or the bloggers) haven't died. Blogs involve posting a relatively lengthy (relative to a tweet) piece, an activity that generates shorter comments. Twitter is more of a short comment / response / re-comment / re-tweet / comment / response / etc. The initial tweet takes less effort than a blog post - say one minute a tweet vs. 10 mins a blog post, so it's more effort and takes more time but has a lot more depth to it.

There was a great spate of activity for a couple of years, but it seems to be dying down at an alarming rate.  A lot of good sites are gone, and there are very few taking their place.

Not Twitter – [Or should I call you Bender's BB?]  Great to see a new site on the horizon!!

I have spend the last week visiting my mum in hospital. Shes very sick at the moment. I also have been trying to write a paper on coronary heart disease for my college course. I keep meaning to write a piece for my own blog but my brain is just hurting so much now. Well if the truth be told. I have spend the last week visiting my mum in hospital.
