I am as guilty of this as anyone. The idea of a weblog is that you need to be giving people contnet and that is why they visit. As we know the Blogosphere is Growing, But Is Anybody Reading?. This post brings up a very important fact and that is that there are a lot of posts that just say “look here is an interesting article”. you have seen that here a lot as well as in a lot of other weblogs I am sure.
As Google constantly redifines what is a valuable webpage they will care less and less about how many posts you have and how many good links that you have and be more focussed on original content. How much original content are you putting out there? I have seen estimates that for every five posts one posts should be all original content. That is probably a little low I would think that three out of five posts should be original content and maybe just link to a couple articles but mostly your own thoughts on the subject.
