Considering the manifesto is over two years old, I'd say you guys are right on track covering it now.

Considering the newest item near the top of my blog is from 1966, I guess I'm a slobber.

I need a minute or two before I comment. Bear with me.

Sure it's blogging. Blogging is just a publishing method. What you write, how you publish - that's all up to the blogger.

Being edgy: also known as simply advocating the opposite of what is currently being done. Preferably using lots of buzzwords.

Turn your blinker off or get off the road already.

can't they just put out a newsletter or play chess by mail? that way there's more bandwidth left over for me to get porn, videos and the real slog more quickly.

So, how is this different than a magazine? Or a book?

I have a new idea too. It's called "Leaving My Cell Phone at Home."

Leaving My Cell Phone at Home is a rejection of immediacy. It is an affirmation that not all calls worth answering are answered when you get them.

Slow Blogging is a reversal of the disintegration into being available to anyone with my phone number at any time.

Oops, I forgot to change that last "Slow Blogging" to "Leaving My Cell Phone at Home."

Slowness is good for tummies. Not for brains. Food is for tummies. Blogging is for brains.

Any questions?

How odd, we were *just* talking about this notion of immediacy > quality in my Communication Theory class.
