Carnival Burnout?

Amish Tech Support thinks "this whole meta-blogging thing has gotten out of control."

But as Rob of BusinessPundit comments

Didn't you expect more meta-blogging stuff to arise as the number of blogs increased? The Carnival of the Capitalists was started because people like myself were already burned out on the blogosphere in general. I can only read so much about the California recall and Iraq before I wonder if there is anything else going on in the world.

Exactly.

As the number of blogs keep growing, readers (including other bloggers) need some way to sort through them and discover new ones-- especially blogs that tackle subjects not covered by Instapundit and blogs that weren't around two years ago.

Carnival of the Capitalists is great for those of us interested in business and economics. I applaud Jay and Rob for all the work they have put into it.

Shooters' Carnival covers the nonpolitical aspects of gun ownership and shooting. Currently the blogosphere is great on CCW and 2d Amendment issues, but lacking in simple how-to information for new or prospective gun owners.
