Seriously? How many ways can we invent to monitor each others’ lives before monitoring is all anyone does? Lately the interweb feels like a large, tightly packed crowd of people, motionless, all feverishly glancing around, waiting for someone to blink. Then when someone does, the twelve people near enough to see it start shouting “WE GOT A BLINKER! RIGHT HERE, BLINKED! SAW IT MYSELF! SOMEBODY TIMESTAMP THIS BITCH!” “Did you see that guy who just saw that one girl blink?” “Yeah, that made me laugh. I posted it on Facebook and it showed up on my FriendFeed, and then the girl saw it and totally Twittered ‘LOL that was me’.”

Kudos to those of you with lots of original content. That’s why I follow you.
