Dave Winer points to a paper from a new colleague of his. His thesis is that a new super power is coming into existence to hold in check the United States. It’s about time, since it looks like we really need one. This brings to mind something else I heard on the radio, I forget…
If you have a blog, and no one reads it, is it really a blog? Or is it like the tree that falls in the forest with no one around? I’ve told exactly one person I have a blog, and even that was by mistake. I didn’t tell him the URL, though he is enterprising…
