Oh, Hi...Why Blogging is Dead.

Follow me on IG @alliejaffe

How many times do you click on a headline or photo and simply scroll through the article or blog post and scan the bold print, maybe give the pics a 5 second glance....and then you're done?

That's pretty much me every time, and I KNOW I'm not the only millennial with a short attention span.

The irony that I'm blogging about how blogging is over is not lost on me, and as such, this one will be short.

I'm a lover of the written word.  I have a deep appreciation for the witty insight that sometimes can only be truly appreciated and expressed through a well thought out, time intensive article.

But I just don't have the time to read a two page blog post these days.

I'm good for a 60 second video, preferably time-lapsed and edited with easy instructions that show me how to master a new beauty look, conquer a new recipe, or organize the house a little better.

I'm down with a long IG caption.

I'll watch a 90 second commentary.

BUT truly, my favorite mode of entertainment consumption is via PodCast or on demand video like HULU.  I need my news / info / entertainment to be on demand and something that can exist simultaneously with my super busy life..  


Sitting down and reading a blog post, unfortunately, is not something that I have time for with an almost 6 month old, a household to run, a husband, a social media business (albeit a small one) and an intense need to hit the gym often enough to accomplish a Chrissy Teigen post baby bod.

WITH ALL THAT SAID, If you've made it this far, which I probably wouldn't have....I'm going to retire from the blog blogging and move my insights, tips, life updates, recipes, fitness tips, travel experiences....all of that jazz.....all over to my IG account, @alliejaffe . SO ... follow up!



I'll be leaving this blog up in case I have a resurgence in the need to write something way too long for IG....but don't count on that until the kiddo hits preschool.  Just saying.
