The web is a mirror of the world and just as varied and wondrous and hideous at the same time depending on where you look. It's like going to London and judging it by Oxford Street.

I could argue with her here on my blog but realised that it is rather pointless.... I always find it somewhat frustrating that people think about the internet as good or bad. Treating “the internet” or “web2.0' and of course the blogosphere as one thing and trying to argue if it’s right or wrong, good or bad is as useless as treating people as good or bad. The web is us. the web is humanity, people, information, knowledge, sex, mass culture, high art, politics, love, hate, bullshit, relationships, truth, lies, communications…..it is everything..... I feel like i'm singing this song for quite a while now... exactly.

I think the juxtaposition of those two quotes is well placed - blogging has democratised the storyteller. Sorry me again.

She's fabulously grumpy but also a bit irritating at times. She clearly hasn't come across some of the great blogs that are out here. I heard her on Front Row tonight.
