              The financial blogosphere didn’t go away, the long form blog just isn’t the optimal method of communication for everyone these days $$

              @ReformedBroker @abnormalreturns I think Tadas has it right – many outlets for real-time market chat & blogs not as widely read/updated.

              + it’s hard to come up with interesting material you haven’t already written. Finance and its issues just don’t change that much over time.

              And frankly, HFB is more news reporting than blogging, anyway, in my opinion. cc @abnormalreturns

              @reformedbroker @TheStalwart think its more of the decline of the independent blogger vs rise of “journalist blogger” or those w/large orgs

              Finance blogging is likely dying. Josh was on point saying all major topics have been discussed to death. @ReformedBroker @felixsalmon
