My comment was all about how I thought I was wasting my time, but then I got a google alert for this post & now I feel all acknowledged & shit. Aw shucks!

I think that your point number five, having a filter, is tremendously important. I remember once upon a time when I didn’t yet know about the Slashdot moderation system. I would wander into Slashdot every once in a while and see all this interesting discussion and I thought that for some reason it just had a different class of users than every other site! The truth of course is that you can set your threshhold all the way down and reveal that Slashdot has a much WORSE fundamental signal:noise ratio than other sites, with the first half a dozen posts just being “FiiiiiRRSSssT PooooSSStt!” and three quarters of the rest being offtopic and/or immature. But filtering can pan gold from the muck.

For me, a lot of the time– like right now for instance– when I’m writing a comment on a blog I’m mostly thinking of myself as writing to the blog owner. I don’t really expect to reach more than one or two people. But that’s fine– that’s what our RL conversations are usually like, after all! And much more important than the spread of our particular words is the spread of our ideas. If you get an idea into someone’s head, you never know where it might pop out again. Famous & influential people are mostly just mouthpieces for ideas that are generated & refined in the daily commerce of personal communications.

When there’s no explicit filter, in other words, there is a natural amplifier & filter in the form of what ideas people respond to and shape themselves around. Getting someone to hear your words won’t change the world nearly as much as getting someone to understand your ideas. On the internet, more than ever, all conversation is one conversation, & every little bit counts.

Keep going….

After reading this blog I am forced to figure out the my reason for posting a comment…
I don’t have something useful to add. Neither do have any benifits nor do I want to drive traffic….

So that leaves ego, knowing the blogger and connect to the people…
And I think ego i.e. being associated with right people has played a dominant role ;-) , though others factors do contribute.
