DU and Bucky Rea introduce the Friday Blog Box!

Blog Box

December 10, 2004
Compiled and written by Bucky Rea, The Brown Bag Blogger

Blogs are hot. Blogs are trendy. No, wait: blogs, my fellow net-Democrats, are totally post-modern-trendy-hot. An unremitting barrage of words, ideas, and stolen graphics zoom past you on a million web logs on the World Wide Information Super Autobahn every minute of the day. If you step out there, you get plowed over. If you blink, you miss something.

So I suggested a couple of weeks ago to DU that we, as a cybercommunity, really oughta keep track of some of the better jalopies zoom-zooming along out there in that gridlock of data and opinion. And EarlG was all like, "yeah, cool, but you read that stuff, Buckaroo, and tell me what you find."

And what did I find? I found that blogging is red hot. Blogging is sexy. No wait, blogging is red-hot sexy, independence-day sexy, auto-sexy, do-it-yourself sexy, hang-it-out-the-window-and-see-if-the-sailors-whistle sexy. Blogging, my fellow net-Democrats, has arrived. And Democratic Underground is here to make sure at least some of it is covered for you, even if you do blink.

Now on with the show...
