Slog - Comments on A Story I Will Definitely Read When I'm Not So Busy Blogging and Reading Blogs http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/10/a_story_i_will_definitely_read_when_im_n "Why I Blog," by Andrew Sullivan. However! The ten-or-so minute video interview version takes only ten minutes (or so), and includes discussion of the blogging vs. thinking divide, the "Bataan Death March" of campaign trail coverage, the interns who help Sullivan keep his blog humming, and the "neurotic" nature of blog-readers (and why bloggy neurosis might be justified in these times)....
