Have You Abandoned Your Blog?

According to the New York Times, 95% of blogs haven’t been updated in over 120 days.  At a new site called Postary, they’ve chalked up the blog lifecycle for most people:

BLOG LIFECYCLE

1) Euphoric moment of inspiration

2) Pseudo-maniacal and self-indulgent perusing of domains

3) Careful consideration of theme and design

4) The inaugural post – “Hello world!”

5) The 2-4 post honeymoon phase

6) Waning and changing interests

7) Feelings of desperation and apathy from low engagement

Inevitable abandonment
