One of the most interesting things about the Weblog phenomenon is the way groups of like-minded people who maintain blogs have self-organized into virtual communities, by linking back and forth to each other and integrating each other’s content via RSS. Using data from the “Blog Tribe” at Ryze.com, Ross Mayfield has found a cool way to map members’ “social networks” in a visual way. It’s an interesting approach, and one that points up how blogging is growing from an individualistic phenomenon into a social one.

If you think anything I write here represents the opinions of anybody but myself, you need more help than I can give you. The opinions are all mine, folks. Nobody else's. ESPECIALLY not my employer's.
If that's too hard to understand... well, I'm sorry. There's only so much I can do. I'm not a therapist, and I'm not a miracle worker. (Unless you consider staying employed in this economy a miracle.) I wish I could help you work through your delusional belief that I'm speaking for anyone else but myself. Honestly, I do. But in the end, that's a monkey you'll have to get off your back on your own. Sorry.
