More than one



Lingering

Truly, do you think you're better off?

I love this:
"The critic and erstwhile blogger Lee Siegel, in Against the Machine, a polemic against online habits, makes a list of "five open supersecrets" about bloggers:

1. Not everyone has something valuable to say.

2. Few people have anything original to say.

3. Only a handful of people know how to write well.

4. Most people will do almost anything to be liked.

5. "Customers" are always right, but "people" aren't."
S'true, I think (though I have to use a blog on the internet to tell you)...
