I’m asking for some help to anyone out there.

A Blog Is a Blog and a Car is a Horseless Carriage

Alan Levine aka CogDog barked this April 29th, 2005 6:58 am

Good writing. Personal viewpoints. That’s what its all about. Tom Caotes’ A Horseless Carriage provides a well written, personal perspective on the evolution of weblogs, but he writes not strictly about the history, and more on a broader definition
