People say so as if it's a truism, but I'm not sure. Can you tell that http://www.eschatonblog.com/ is an award-winning political blog? John Scalzi (http://whatever.scalzi.com/) post pictures of his cats. http://kottke.org/ is all over the damn place.

(I'm a female blogger, but I am one of those who use it as a semi-public diary at LJ, not a continuing flow of political/etc. essays. I'm never quite sure if I count as a blogger, or just a would-be exhibitionist. ;) Under the original idea of blog as "web log", like "Captain's Log, Stardate whatever", though, I count a blogger.)

I was just linked to the original post from a feminist site (http://www.feministing.com/), and I *still* didn't catch the satire! I was just about to post something along the lines of 'that's funny, I know lots of male bloggers...' when I saw the update linking here. And then I felt like a fool. :) So, nicely done - good point, effectively made. Oh dear.

I was quite happy with it and hope that future randomness is as equally awesome. Perhaps there should be a shrine to it or something. If this was the internet of the early 90s we could have an angelfire or geocities site up. With sounds! It is quite distinct.
