The June
11-13 comics from UserFriendly are amusing jabs at the blogosphere. 🙂

Roots
I just registered my blog over at BlogTree.
Sometime in either late 2001 or early 2002 I started “Scribbled Lines”,
which you now know as “Ales Rarus”. I established the official birthday,
however, as April
17, 2002 because a computer crash ate all my entries. I restored them from the
published site on 4/17/02.
Hollywood Hilarity
Hollywood Mystery Man ‘Rance’ Has Internet Abuzz
By Dan Whitcomb
“LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – He skewers Hollywood and the cult of celebrity on an anonymous Web log that has spawned a cult following. He claims to be an A-list actor, writing under a pseudonym, but admits he may not be believed.”
I love good satire. 🙂
This seems to be another case of me being late to the party. Then again, since I hardly give a rat’s…um…whisker about the rest of the blogosphere, it’s hardly shocking. Don’t get me wrong, I like being read and being linked, but real life time takes precedence over blog time. Anyone who does the reverse needs to move out of their parents’ basement.
Appreciation
Woohoo! Someone has decided my blog’s interesting enough to read regularly. 🙂 I
should probably clean up the design one of these days and make a link back page.
Stupid real life, be less busy. 😉
I just found out about this link so I haven’t had a chance to read it. Still, I
thought it’d be polite to plug it.
Blogs Bowing Out?
While I agree blogs are losing popularity, I disagree that it foretells their ultimate demise. I think the wheat is separating from the chaff. The really good blogs will stick around. What will become of mine? I guess that depends on you folks. 😉
"Blogs have been seen by some as a new wave of internet development but are they losing their appeal, wonders technology analyst Bill Thompson. Could it be time to quit reading blogs? One of the most useful things about being away from home – I'm writing this in Venice and then I'm off to California – is that it gives you an opportunity to reflect on the sources of information you really need and trust."
