TALE OF A BLOGGERS EXISTENTIAL TECHNO CRISIS
I took a break from blogging for the past few months. It was not really a summer vacation. It was just that I got the blogging blues. Because I was getting wrapped up in the Wiki-RSS-SecondLife-Web 2.0-Social Media maelstrom. I was afraid my philosophical musings couldn't compete. In short, I lost my way.
What is my way? I’m here to provide a philosophical examination of the issues underlying our nonprofit ways. Sometimes it’s accounting or compliance and yes sometimes technology or meta-tech. Unfortunately, I’m a generalist lost between the hot topics with the great "take aways". My message isn’t clear (or clear enough) and I only reach 39 unique visitors. Yes I’m RSS-able and search optimized and post regularly (at least I did for 14 consecutive months.
So why bother? Because there are things that I need to say and I’m compelled to say them. In addition, because I have found myself among a community--one that I never had before. A group of nonprofit bloggers I’m proud to be a part of.
Without further adieu here are the five bloggers with a philosophical bent that I love the most

- Andrew Taylor’s TheArtfulmanager

I've also been a bit lax on the blogging during the summer. Both from too much "real work" and taking what other time I had to vacate, relax, and reflect.
I expect to be back to regular blogging (and blog reading) now that the summer is just about done with.
