So Mature

So. This little Blog is in with the cool 'Net kids. At least for 2003. So says...Tiffany Shlain, founder and director of the Webby Awards, in From blogs to news, Internet watcher sees Web maturing

"For Ms. Shlain, the biggest developments of 2002 included the rise in instant messaging and the proliferation of Web logs (or "blogs"). Blogs are regularly updated Web journals that address specific issues and offer links to similar sites. Observers estimate there are about 500,000 blogs currently on-line. Evan Williams, who runs Blogger.com, told Wired News that 41,000 new blogs were created last January alone.

"What blogging has brought back to the Web is that initial beauty of connecting to other sources of information," Ms. Shlain says. "The Web started in the academic community, to share ideas, and we're going back to that."

Ms. Shlain feels that the Internet could eventually supersede television as the source for late-breaking news, referring to the Washington sniper crisis as an example of people turning to the Web for updated reports."

I WANT MY BLOG TV! (Sung to the tune of "I Want My MTV") of course.
