The computer geeks at The Register are not a fan of weblogs or their authors. Most galling, I think, is that these people who make their living off of posting internet news for computer geeks and the tech savvy, have the nerve to demean my social skills. Andrew Orlowski notes:

Interesting people run interesting blogs, but it's remarkable how few of them there are. [...]

...the field is largely populated by adolescents - of all ages.

Maybe we're all safer this way - thanks to weblogs. Maybe blogs are a way of keeping the truly antisocial out of harm's way. So if you know a middle-aged sociopath, for heaven's sake, point him to a computer and show him how to start a weblog.

At least it will keep him off the streets

I guess my adventures cannot compare to the swash-buckling done by network administrators and computer programmers.
