Big Contrarian looks like an awesome blog. And Tacky is a superb blog post. It says all the sorts of things I want to say about the utter asininity that is the “Problogger” and Digg end of the blogosphere. I can’t quite believe I actually used to not only read but link to TechCrunch. Of course, now I barely blog at all. The official reason is that I’ve got a stack of books a mile high to read. The real reason is that whenever I open my RSS aggregator, I feel a new level of despair at the stupidity of it all. A once awesome medium for self-expression has become an utterly awful medium of now seemingly mandatory self-promotion. These blogs read more like those crappy adverts you see on daytime television for consolidation loans.
