Blogging to Peak in 2007?
Tony Karrer
DECEMBER 19, 2006
I received a great set of questions via email over the weekend roughly coming out of a two articles: Gartner: Blogging to peak in 2007 , By Some Measures, Blogging May Be Peaking. By end of 2007, will those educators who would ever dabble in blogging have dabbled? The form of it may or may not be a blog.

Looking Back at 2007
Tony Karrer
DECEMBER 31, 2007
In December 2006, I posted my challenges and predictions for 2007. Biggest challenges for 2007? I could answer this as the biggest challenges for Learning Professionals generally, and maybe I'll come back and do that, but for now, let me just write what I see as some of my bigger challenges in 2007. We were very fortunate.

While I've not been active blogging (is this really my first post since 2015?), the community of bloggers continues to thrive and anything that highlights the amazing content produced by the diverse blogging community is great.

2007 Traffic Stats - Hopefully a Meme
Tony Karrer
JANUARY 14, 2008
I've seen a couple of posts ( Matt Cutts , Dave Taylor ) talking about their relative web statistics for 2007. While my stats are very low in comparison to theirs, I was hoping that I could entice fellow bloggers to post some stats about their traffic in 2007. Referral traffic is generally from other blogs.

I wanted to go back and figure out what things really struck me during 2007.

100 Mandatory Blogging?
Tony Karrer
MAY 13, 2008
Over the past two years, my thoughts around blogging as a learning and networking tool have been slowly evolving. In Oct 2007, the LCB asked - Should All Learning Professionals Be Blogging? If they were starting on some new learning activity, I'd want them to blog. But, otherwise, I've not seen anyone making it mandatory.

So, I'm doing it again this time based on the topics in Training 2007. One of the reasons I choose the Training conference is that it's not as leading edge as eLearningGuild events, but is a bit more mainstream, corporate than ASTD conferences. Although people may debate this.
