PR Opinions points to the interest and influence (still unclear) of blogs in the tech journal sector. Personally, I find that I'm reading fewer journals...
"We literally have a daily discussion on this topic. We have a lot of top people writing columns and perspectives but we know that the bulk of our readership still comes to us for the news. In one sense, my editor for opinions, Charles Cooper, writes a column that's sort of a blog, and we have this "Your Take" feature now, whereby readers can respond to his column, but it is not a two-way thing. I think with news the question is which blogger do you really trust. There are so many of them. It seems to me like it's a pretty incestuous thing going on. One journalist points to another journalist's blog and other bloggers point to other people's blogs, and you somehow think that this is the most popular thing. But is it credible? I don't know."
