blogvertising (cont.)
Blogvertising
Hugh Macleod’s blog, gapingvoid.com, teaches blogvertising by example. You think he’s talking explicitly about blogvertising or maybe making crass commentary on society.

I’m not always sure how I feel about it, either. “Blogvertising” is still a work in progress, as is any form of commercial blogging enterprise.
My M.O. is still the same as it has always been, the same as what most bloggers do with their stuff– throw different ideas out there, and see which ones stick. Make it up as you go along etc etc.
If you try something and it fails, you’re going to get flak. If you try something and it succeeds, you’re going to get flak. Welcome to the Human Race etc.
All you can do, of course, is keep throwing new stuff out there. And that’s the fun of it.

I’m living in the middle of that class sentiment right now. Orlando’s gone crazy with a housing bubble. Most apartments (which are kinda pricey anyway) have turned into condos, and property values even in some “bad parts” of town have skyrocketed. The question my confused cohorts and I keep asking is “Where are all the people who can afford to buy these places coming from?”
Four-Year-Old Wisdom
My four-year-old has finally figured out what daddy does all day. So now, he pays close attention to every spot that comes on the air. Two nights ago, the family was watching something — I don’t remember what. Jackson, though,
