An interesting post on the impact of weblogs on publishing.
I would say I think it makes a lot of sense that you get so much information for free that you may not think of every buying a book. But in weblogs the information is spread out and you need to collate and create a logical structure out of that information. The editor and the author of the book do it for you. So if you want free information, you still need to work for it.
