in an escape from the bias and collectivism of wikipedia, i discovered and am enjoying the encyclopædia britannica’s blog. some of the interesting stories of the day include: Do Americans Support Capitalism, and Which Capitalism? and Starbucks Not the Answer for New York Freelancers. My favorite post so far is Creative Design (Space-Saving Coffee Lids).

In essence, [blogging/blog platforms are] a straightforward content-management system that posts updates in reverse-chronological order and allows comments and other social interactions.
Viewed as such, blogging may “die” in much the same way that personal-digital assistants (PDAs) have died. A decade ago, PDAs were the preserve of digerati who liked using electronic address books and calendars. Now they are gone, but they are also ubiquitous, as features of almost every mobile phone.
