22How to Move Your Blog Into The Era of the Real Time Web
A couple of weeks ago, there were post flying around the web claiming once again that blogs were dead and that you should drop it in favor of lifestreaming. While I am a big fan of lifestreaming (I have a dedicated lifestream page on my site), I do not believe that blogs are dead.
I believe the opposite is true and that blogs are evolving. In the past, a blog would be a ‘single voice of a person’. Nowadays, blogs have become the voice of a community, driven by technology that is starting to make real-time conversations possible. With this post, I’d like to share some solutions that can help your blog stay ahead of the game and move into the era of the real time web.

28Starting the conversation
In 1984, it was American science fiction writer William Gibson who said:
The future is here, it’s just not widely distributed yet.
Gibson’s words trigger curiosity, they awaken change and inspire the innovator in us. There is a truth in his paradox, just look at our technological advancements in the last 25 years.
Today I am launching my new website, Alexve.com – Innovation Conversations and with it, I like to start the conversation with anyone who can relate to Gibson’s words.
The future of our community we call ‘earth’ is accelerated by our nature to innovate. So why not ride this powerful current of change together?
I’ll be sharing my passion for innovation, technology and personal development here and invite anyone to join me. Alexve.com is about helping each other doing things smarter, sharing creative ideas, cool technology, books and anything that inspires and awakens the innovator in all of us.
Who inspired you to innovate?
