i read today on
wired that berkeley's school of journalism is going to teach about blogging next semester. as a person who maintains a blog, what do i think? well, i think it's a really stupid idea. the stuff i post on my blog and the stuff that other people post on their blogs is mostly mindless drivel (sp?). pure crap. that's right, i called the stuff that i post on this site CRAP. the only thing that makes it special is that it's MY CRAP. damn straight. blog this, blog that. it's a word that's hyped way too much unfortunately and when that happens, its meaning becomes diluted. a blog is a personal journal--not a source of news. perhaps that might change in the future but for now, no. the only reason this blog is up is because of bored and that i wanted a place to keep all the links i visit. and to post random crap to relieve the excess thoughts in my head. phew.
