Are all Blogs Saying the Same Things?

While I'm reading my morning's blogs, I start to notice a trend that all of my blogs are mostly talking about the same things. They are even all interlinked with 'Joe said this...' and 'John said that...' comments. It is like a circle jerk of bloging.

While this can be seen as unoriginal and just adding to the quantity of posts instead of the quality, there are some benefits.

Every post is adding to the conversation and expanding upon our knowledge and understanding of that topic. In some ways it is pollen from different flowers picked up by a bee and the reader is the bee. (That's deep isn't it?)

Perhaps though, I need to start reading blogs from different industries and not just High-Tech Venture Capitalists.
