Blogger Manuel "Manu" Moreale, based in Italy, reflects on interviewing people weekly about their blogs for a few years now.

The thing I wanted to spend some time reflecting on though, is not the significance of having done something every day for 100 weeks (something I honestly dont care too much about) but why all this matters. Not the series nor the interviews. Why blogs matter and why the people behind them matter.

He has published his 100th such interview this week. Like all upstanding bloggers he even has an RSS feed.

    I might not read Soylent if the blog didn't have an RSS feed.

    RSS is critical for podcasts and blogs. Don't call me; I'll (automatically) call you asking for new posts.

    I use TinyTinyRSS running on my home server, as my RSS aggregator.
