"Undermining my electoral viability since 2001."

Not By Typewriter Anymore

In yet another happy accident of browsing the web, I found out that William Gibson has a blog. He's a writer, that cat. I've always appreciated the fact that he invisioned a whole science-fiction future based on kids playing pong, then slapped it out on an old-school typewriter. There's something pure about that -- people who are deep into tech are often too deep in to see the forest through the trees.

Speaking of machines through which we communicate, I've been noticing how implementing this blog tool has changed my style. It's increased the frequency of my posting, but also made it more broken-up and topical. I'm not sure if I like it like that, but I'm also not sure what the alternative is. Since this little experiment is at least 50% for you, the people who take the time to consume my etchings in the ether, what do you think? Check the new poll.
