All Blogs Go to Heaven
This great e-land of unsolicited commentary we call blogs is expanding faster than the universe and granting e-mortality to the most humble of internauts.
This land of e-quality will unleash both the inane and the genious, intermingling with no discrimination but yours.
Will historians in 500 years parse the musings of the ancient bloggers of old? Will some blogs become classics that students visit as class projects and evaluate in lieu of book reports? Will the new sub-language forged in the fire of e-publication provide linguists with PhD theses topics for years to come?
Will our blogs hang in cyber-space like burning stars billions of years after we have looked at them? Or will they fade into disuse, burn out, or implode upon themselves? Will St Peter read our blogs before letting us through the pearly gates?
Maybe the most lasting blogs will stand as epitaphs to those who have lived in the sunlight as well as they have lived in the light of the computer monitor.
