Look, I know there are a whole bunch of smug blogs, and snarky ones, just plain bad ones, and all sorts, but if you care to look around, there are some very talented people out there putting out some damn fine work. Many just choose to have total control over their work, rather than hand it over to a magazine or whatever. They're using the power of the Internet to get the audience, same as photographers, musicians, designers, any number of vocations. It just seems quite silly to me to dismiss all blogs as something inferior. Doug Brewer http://www.drivingtheflies.com ============ I agree. Yes, I meant you and some others I have read. :-) But to offset people who are actually good writers and work on their posts, there are thousands and thousands of teenager and twenty something blogs that are basically ramblings of what is going on in their life at the time. On line journals so to speak. For those Bob's little story about the lady at the bus stop that can't stop talking and babbles everything to perfect strangers was very, very apt.
