New Evolution of Personal Publishing.

I think this is a good post from Alex Iskold regarding a new revolution of personal publishing. As for me, this can give a big impact for those who have been penalized by Google. It’s like a back to basic post that might remind bloggers about how to blog in a proper way (blogging ethique?).

Remember the days in which the more technically inclined of us had web sites? I went through 3 or 4 different versions of my site with about the same content - books I liked, software I’d written, my resume, and my photos. Making a web site was not very difficult if you knew HTML, but was nearly impossible if you did not. The WYSIWYG web site tools never quite worked as expected and in the end people found them unappealing.

Yet, quite a few people did have personal web sites back in the earlier days of world wide web. The biggest problem with those sites, however, was that they were static. The content of a site rarely changed, and even when it did, there was no way for other people to find out. As a result, personal web sites really never caught on with mainstream web users. That all changed when blogs burst on the scene.
