Are food blogs over?

Adam Roberts, over at The Amateur Gourmet (@amateurgourmet), has been a successful and popular food blogger since 2004 and has experienced first-hand the explosion of food blogs over the internet. He has just published a thoughtful piece of whether food blogs are passé. As he comments, “Food blogs couldn’t be huger; everyone with a camera and a soft palate has one.” But bigger is usually not better, especially when recent blogs aren’t bringing anything new to the table. His advice to any new blogger – in fact, to any food blogger – is succinct, but well worth heeding: Bring a sense of danger. His post has, to date, already drawn almost 100 responses.
