If you don’t read Felix Salmon’s blog on Portfolio.com, you should. Not only can you get your recommended daily intake of financial market acronyms in an easily digestible form, you also get Felix’s insight into blogonomics. Today he has a nice post in response to a reactionary article in the NY Times about bloggers having heart-attacks. Basically, as in any other profession, some bloggers are workaholics, and some of them worked themselves to death. Somehow the NYT thinks that blogs are special and this is news.

Anyways, Felix gives some analysis of what really matters in terms of bloggers’ incentives to publish breaking news quickly. As a paid blogger, Felix obviously knows what he’s talking about. Definitely worth a read.
