A-List Technology Bloggers: What Are They Good For?

Dare Obasanjo joins the growing list of personalities who are feeling the web 2.0 fatigue - these days I see a bunch of bloggers blowing hype about sites they don’t use, don’t understand and don’t even care about because the sites are popular or are worth “billions of dollars” for whatever reason.

Recently I wondered why I now only skim the headlines of blogs like Mike Arrington, Robert Scoble and Richard MacManus every couple of days instead of reading them regularly like most of the feeds in my subscription list. I realized that I don’t get much out of them.

Besides geeking about Websites everyone heard about a year ago, the only things I’ve learned from the A-list blog crowd recently is that the founder of Digg has launched a knock-off of Twitter and that a guy who built a knock-off of Digg while he was at AOL has gotten millions in funding to implement the dumbest search engine idea I’ve heard this decade. Yeah, useful stuff.
