Weblogs commenting on media stories commenting on weblogs commenting on media stories commenting on web...
Or is the word l am looking for tautological?
Anyway I am glad that weblogs are getting some press, and they are getting away from the stupid "Are weblogs journalism debate?" and focusing more on the benefits (and drawbacks) of weblogging in bringing unmediated experiences, building community, and enabling people as creators of content, not just consumers. Still, there is something incestuous about it.
And media become more like weblogs ...
Improved Tools Turn Journalists Into a Quick Strike Force: "Some media critics say the technology's potential benefits can be undermined by the pressure it places on reporters to be filing continually simply because it is possible to do so." Sounds a lot like a weblog.
My apologies, but my web hoster has turned off commenting, due to a flood of obscene spam bringing the server to its knees. I hope to have this weblog transitioned over to Wordpress in the near future, so that I can have commenting up and working again. Until then, please feel free to send me your comments via my email contact form.. Please ignore everything below this comment.
