My husband and I have each had membership sites for at least a couple years now and it’s been amazing enough that they support our family of five + 2 dogs.

We tend to think how-to content is best for membership sites, and our content is in high-quality video–not just something you can get anywhere. I’m curious to know long how non-how-to blogging memberships will last.

Well, I am subscribing more and more to RSS. Maybe I am a bit late to it (never completely understood how it worked) but now I really love it a whole lot better then email subscriptions.

Actually I unsubscribed to most of my email subscriptions this week and instead subscribed to RSS. And think it is just brilliant. That and my Twitter stream of course!

When I was just starting out with my blog, I was at a loss which one to choose: Plurk or Twitter. Plurk is a hit among Filipino bloggers. Lots of Filipinos in Twitter too in 2008 but I found Twitter to have more international reach. I’m glad I made the right choice by choosing Twitter.

Metablogging is dead? Isn’t that too premature to call? But I can’t agree more about the attractiveness of “lifestyle design posts.” Stories, personal slices of life never get old. Reading about others account of their lives – we do live vicariously through their triumphs and struggles, don’t we – always enriches us one way or another.

I love RSS. I hope it doesn’t die. I don’t want to have to use email for all my feeds. I hate having to follow a link and open a new browser window. TUAW do it well, they supply enough of the story through RSS – but the finer details after the link, should you wish to know more.

Glad to see metablogging move to the back and delighted to see ‘lifestyle design’ taking a front seat. Biographies have long been the bestsellers at the bookstore so it only makes sense.

Great site, by the way. Glad I found you through DailyBlogTips.

Sorry I missed plurk! and I won’t miss RSS. Bing has yet to show it can make it through next year.

I agree with your points, but regarding the RSS, it may be die in future, but won’t die in a short term, since on twitter you are not able to read the full story until you click the link and visit the webpage.
