About once a week I am going to try to spotlight a post from across the History of Blogging network. For this week, I wanted to point you towards a series that Social Media blogger, Mark Dykeman is putting together about how blogs resemble islands. So far, the metaphor has been quite fitting.

Would you want to visit a tropical island resort immediately after a natural disaster, when the roads are full of pot holes, power and plumbing aren’t functioning, and the ceiling and walls are missing from your hotel room? Would you want to stay in a place when things are broken, ugly, or otherwise unappealing?
