Wired News: Why Did Google Want Blogger? Strange, because a thought occured to me recently that Blogs were a very sophisticated form of web cataloging. Bloggers are doing the work of a service like Yahoo. We look through the links, create copies of the ones that bear the most interest and even write summeries and commentary on them. All for free. Imagine, you enter the information stream, and unless there is something ahead of you, a fork in the road you stop. You stare at the screen and wonder what to do next. Instead you enter the stream, and there is a list of possible "leads" that you get to choose from. Each in turn leads to more leads and you follow a series of streams that lead you through new parts of the internet. The problem right now seems to be that many of the links are just short hypertexted sentence fragments. And some of those just lead to dead ends without giving you much to go on. The web is an evolving form of global consciousness. Is that good or bad? | |
