Here’s a point of view: Blogs are like talkback radio. The easier it is for people to reach a mass audience, the quicker you come to realise that very few have anything worthwhile to say.

I’ll be enjoying a bottle of good but cheap wine (thanks Threshers) while reading the Clue Train (thanks Hugh), and encouraging my colleagues to read this post. Nice one — spot on, as ever.

Hmmmm… I am thinking that’s glue induced. There’s a hint of blur that just would not happen with LSD. Of course, some could argue that its shear ridiculousness is reminiscent of pot.
Excuse me; “Humanification” is the realization that everyone who’s ever lived took a dump once a day and all our efforts to rise above our base common nature has been vanity.
Pathetic and sad.

This is one of those posts that make you stop what you are doing on the spot, and rethink. Powerful.
I added your cartoon widget and ordered blog cards, can’t wait to them them.
Thanks

Hugh,
Thanks very much for this. It was enormously helpful. If you find yourself in San Francisco or NYC anytime soon, I would love to arrange something similar.

Outstanding notes — I’m overwhelmed by it, and I thought I understood it. Would’ve loved to see how the crowd was reacting.

Sweet post– I have to link to this on my site.
P.S. Let’s hope they don’t get it too quick, so we can stay in business as blog consultants a little longer.

Hugh, ‘humanify’ and ‘humanification; are not words.
Maybe you were looking for ‘humanize’ and ‘humanization’
Just a though.
The rest is pure gold.
