I’m not noticing it being particularly typoriffic. You big sensitive gombeen.

> how it’s a revolution and we don’t need no gad-damn professionals and so on and so forth. It’s a minority view, but they’re a loud minority.

Who holds that opinion??

And nor do they want to be. I’m delighted so many people are writing regularly because I think it’s a healthy thing to do, so I’m approximately a million miles from taking issue with the bloggers themselves. It does however annoy me how relentlessly serious some parties are about the whole business of blogging, about how it’s a revolution and we don’t need no gad-damn professionals and so on and so forth. It’s a minority view, but they’re a loud minority.

Speaking of knee-jerk reactions, on with the comment:

Rosie is right, some of the blogging ‘A-list’ (is there such a thing?) are not great writers. But that isn’t what blogs are about – it’s a free, non-discriminatory, democratic platform for any old joe to slick his hook and shoot the breeze.

Very few bloggers are going to be a pulitzer prize winning journalists, nobel prize winning writers or anything like them.

There are plenty of folks out there who enjoy Cecilia Ahern, Dan Brown and their shiny babies – and if that’s what they’re into well let ‘em get on with it. The same applies for blogging really, read what you like and drop a comment or two if you disagree.
