The evolution of television is a good analogy – in the early days, when there were few channels, people could share in common experience, or learn something important to their daily lives. Now, with hundreds of channels, there are more interesting and informative things to see, but also far, far more that are self-serving or simply adding to the noise.

Write well, tell a good story, speak the truth. The level of noise is quite high, but there is plenty of signal shared through relationships and reference. Sure, those who want to spin in their own little hells can collect others of similar mind, but so can anyone else.

Thanks for helping to reduce the amount of noise in air, just a bit.

I will check back in a few months.

Thanks for all of your hard work.

To me, the only thing more disturbing than how dumb the average person is…. is that half of us are even dumber than that! Give both the dumber and smarter halves their own blogs, and you end up with good blogs, bad blogs, funny blogs, depressing blogs, overly introspective blogs, hilarious self deprecating blogs, annoyingly idealistic forward-looking blogs, insightful retrospectic blogs, overly self-absorbed blogs, overly…. well, you get the picture.

I hate bloggers that beg for money or have a million ads on their front page.To me, they are whores and shills…I am sure many come to mind for some folks. The professional bloggers detract from a noble endeavor. Thats my story and I am sticking to it
