Of anonymous bloggers

The excerpt below is particularly evocative, in my opinion. This got me thinking about how blogs are extensions, or manifestations rather of our own personal convictions. Thus, [...]
Bloghopping and personalities
I recently gave someone (unsolicited) advice to go bloghopping before forming opinions about something or other. So, before that advice rebounds to me, I thought I’d do some of my own.
