Bruce Sterling, talented author and long-time member of the online technorati, is back on the Web again after a hiatus this summer. His new blog, Beyond the Beyond, is hosted by Wired. It’s great to have Bruce once again making insightful commentary on the strange world that is the net.
One thing from Bruce’s first post that struck me is his explanation of why there is no commentary system on his blog.
Note that there is NO COMMENTARY ALLOWED in my pristine, high-toned blog here. Why? Because you might be a spammer, that’s why! When I have a big red anti-spam button I can push that will cause Homeland Security to arrest you immediately and deport you to Guantanamo, then you may comment. Until then, no blog-reader of mine will ever be forced to endure your lame illegal product pitches, and that goes double for you harebrained flamers and trollers.
You tell ’em, Bruce!
