Totally unrelated blog-a-thon: Why your blog must die
IT'S AN OLD SCREED, ONE THAT I LINKED TO A COUPLE YEARS AGO, but it's still fragrant. From a site called "kuro5hin.org," Why your Movable Type blog must die. "You are all pretentious twats. Every last one of you. You're all latte-sipping, iMac-using, suburban-living tertiary-industry-working WASPs who offer absolutely no new insights on anything whatsoever apart from maybe one specialist field if we're lucky. Most of you think that you're writing original content and that you're making a contribution by licensing your spewings under Creative Commons "Some Rights Reserved" licences, just because it's the hip thing to do. You think you know all there is to say about blogging because you understand the concept of HTML and CSS, but the horrible truth is that 40% of you are all using the same shitty default layout. Then you take pictures of yourselves looking pensive or making vague allusions to mythology." [Further spew at the link.]
