Maybe Dave Winer* is right, and warblogs are so last week. We need a new kind of blog, so this whole thing doesn’t degenerate into a bunch of teenaged girls all trying to be Rebecca Blood, so how about wood blogs? Woodblogging is manly, world-changing, technical, and already established, so it’s got all the ingredients of The Next Big Thing.
And besides, nobody ever booed a woodblogger off the stage like they do some people I could name. What kind of moron invites a commercial software merchant to keynote an Open Source conference anyway?

*Winer’s still upset that blogging didn’t go mainstream until Sept. 11, 2001, and when it did it was on the back of Blogger, not Radio. Such is life.
I’m sure there’s an article somewhere describing the Frontier/AppleScript/Apple thing. In my own much-less-famous, much-less-ancillary-benefits way, I feel his pains.
