Blogging Buddies Go Bye-Bye

 

Back when I started contributing to this blog there was a team that posted multiple times a week. There were also a number of other blogs about Chesterton and his compatriots.

Blogging has declined as people have turned to other outlets.

The team behind this blog faded away, so I am the only member still posting here. I suspect the other members of the team found more meaningful things to do!

As for the other blogs, I noted that their posts became sporadic, or basically ceased. Here's a look at few of them.

Discover the Wit & Wisdom of Gilbert Keith Chesterton - one post in 2024, one in 2012, and 16 back in 2020.

Old World Swine - Says the last post was seven years ago, but it seems to have moved to a new platform as well. I was not allowed to enter!

GKC's Favourite - Last entry ten years ago

THE BLOG OF THE AMERICAN CHESTERTON SOCIETY - there was one post in 2017, but then you have to go back to 2010 to find another one.

The New Distributist League - They announced back in 2010 they were moving. The last entries in the new site were from 2018.

The ChesterBelloc Mandate - The same crew as the Distributist League, same results.

The Distributist Review - Ditto!

The Flying-Ins (i.e. The Chesterteens) - Last entry in 2010.

The Blue Boar - Is now only open to invited people. I was not invited. I don't know if they still continue.

That's it for those listed as blogs. There are links to other sites related to Chesterton and his compatriots, but I have not checked them yet.

So - seems this is the only still active Chesterton-related blog of the ones we knew in the good old days. Maybe there are others out there, but I do not know them.

Meanwhile, I continue posting. This one is the 27th post of 2025.
