The two most interesting quotes i’ve read in the last 12 hours:
“Carrot Cake Soup is like the taste of watching girls make out.“
“For one thing, blogs will become ubiquitous to the point of transparency.“
The latter quote has relevance to yesterday’s first post because it implies exactly the opposite opinion of blogging while winding up with the same end result; blogs will be overabundant rather than just being over, and their proliferation will render having your own blog to be a non-event. The idea that personal pages once rife with badly justified text and awkwardly placed image files are soon to be transformed into a neverending stream of well-intentioned but poorly maintained weblogs is somewhat disappointing – even if my blog started out that way, i’ve always hoped the medium wouldn’t be relegated to such “ubiquitous” and “transparent” ends. If that happens, maintaining a domain name blog won’t be any different than having some shitty page on Geocities; not that it was any different in the first place.
As for the former quote… well, i really wanted to try the soup before they even said anything about what it tasted like.
