Off Topic - Blog Funeral?

I was Gawking and saw some interesting stuff. Read on if it's interesting but honestly, it's really about a bunch of so called Web 2'ers who aren't making enough money for themselves ... I don't think they get it. Thank gawd they don't.

'.. don’t know about you kids, but we’re thoroughly hungover from this blogfuck stuff. Last Monday brought New York mag’s cover story on blog hierarchy.
