I saw this headline found on Yahoo today, and I can’t help but saying…Duh. Most kids don’t like to read. The article, “Is Blogging a Slog? Some Young People Think So” was about how researchers found out that young people don’t like to read long blogs or articles anymore. Like they ever did. Comically written in a nearly 1,000 word article, I guess the young people today will not be reading it.
To ensure that this post is short enough for everyone to read, I leave you this picture to do the talking.

Should we all start writing shorter blog posts?

I blame twitter… for everything!
I think I’m going to start a pico-blogging service, where you blog what you’re thinking in 2 characters or less.
