In praise of uncategorizable blogs
This blog post is worth reading and offers a thoughtful place to start thinking about how to start from a place of unknowingness, to reflect on one's experience and resist immediately falling into "us/them." More on this later, but wanted to share the link. Have to get work done today. Elizabeth writs
In praise of uncategorizable blogs"Differences in taste make the world go around. I get bored by blogs that cover the same topics all the time. Very few people have enough interesting things to say about politics (or about knitting or anything else) to be worth reading day in and day out on that one subject. But a lot more people can say something interesting about each of five different subjects in the course of a week."

I just found this post as well - I forget how. It makes a good case for maintaining a diverse blog - as well as the excellent links in the post to Learning the Lessons of Nixon ("I say unto you, fellow blogger: Don’t start another blog." :D )
I'm not wholly convinced because I subscribe to several blogs that are fairly undiluted by various topics - and I love 'em. There's certainly room for all kinds of blogs, but Half Changed World makes a good argument for a more subversive approach with regards to political blogging.
