Blogosphere Karma


















It is the same old tired plot, this time from Kim Maxwell. A story gets posted on the Internet, and in the retelling becomes something else:
Stormhoek US partner Jason Korman (on an April 28 Stormhoek blog) said their US dinner-hosting list - so far - includes musicians, crypozoological impersonators, suduko challengers and a group of nudists planning to entertain with Stormhoek ‘in their natural state’.
There was a beautiful quote in a Boing Boing post the other day:
Everything you love, everything meaningful with depth and history, all passionate authentic experiences will be appropriated, mishandled, watered down, cheapened, repackaged, marketed and sold to the people you hate.
Buckle up for safety!
