Blogs - a 3T flash in the pan. I like this little piece from Matt Welch, where he says that all that's happened in the world of blogs this decade is that the partisan war of ideas has gotten worse. Blogs make it easier to isolate yourself in your own little opinion bubble, and have failed to live up to any potential to be a source of "grassroots fact-checking" or "cross-partisan critical thinking" or whatever.

I've tried to keep my blog generationally themed, though the reader is free to assume whatever partisan bias he or she wishes (but do read Matt's article).
