blogging – a retrospective
Somehow I stumbled onto this essay by Rebecca Blood (author of The Weblog Handbook: Practical Advice on Creating and Maintaining Your Blog and We’ve Got Blog: How Weblogs Are Changing Our Culture) about the history of blogs. And this led me to the eatonweb portal which led to some really random blogs:

addendum 2015 Oct 12: * GIRLS ARE PRETTY FOREVER • 2008 Jul 16 to 2011 Jan 19
* GIRLS ARE PRETTY FOREVER • 2011 Jan 21 to present
(Sorry, just a random list of places I clicked-through. No commentary as of yet.)
Then, somehow I ended up at the website of the esteemed science fiction writer Harlan Ellison, where I learned about the game “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream,” which is based on a collection of short-stories by Mr. Ellison (and which sounds very “Matrix“-like.) Which made me immediately think of the meme “Hello Kitty Has No Mouth” (and she must scream….)
The web is a random, random place.
