In general I agree with it. But then again the most useful sites I tend to visit only get updated a couple of times a month, but it's the in depth post that makes me a loyal reader. Quality content is king, but keeping it fresh is key. Nice post. In general I agree with it.

It does take a while to recover. @vextacy: Good point, Twitter and RSS are great tools for giving people a nudge if you have been away for a while, but we need to also realise that ultimately RSS readers are in the minority compared to regular visitors.

I often find I click on a twitterer's web site to see a little more of their background and often put what they have said in a better context. I think of twitter as a kind of dynamic bookmark.

Without fresh content every now and then even the 'bots' will lose interest. An interesting analogy but definitely the truth.
