Looks Like the Start of Something 10Aug05
I like when newspapers notice new internet phenomena. I like how their reporting of the phenomena-as-news makes them look just a little bit too earnest, just a little bit uninformed (especially, I'm sure, to people who have been actively engaged in that phenomena).
...their awkwardness (and when do newspapers (&c.) ever look awkward? it's their business to look natural and right and authoritative in almost every situation) seems to me like a sign that here is something to notice, that something is changing..
