Publisher's noteThe co-founder of Salon.com explores the complex network of blogging and provides insights into the new medium with discussions on privacy, self-expression, authority, and community, and includes close-ups of blogging innovators, including Evan Williams of Blogger. AnnotationScott Rosenberg, a cofounder of Salon, one of the most popular Internet journals, reports that, as of 2008, estimates of the number of worldwide blogs range in the realm of 200 million, but that number likely climbed significantly in the time it took me to type this sentence. Rosenberg provides the first attempt at a comprehensive history of this web phenomenon, which has given virtually any person on the planet the capability of making public comments on any subject, resulting in an exponential increase in the amount of information available, both good and bad. He also features detailed portraits of several blogging pioneers, such as Blogger founder Evan Williams, misanthropic software guru Dave Winer, and online diarist Justin Hall, whom Rosenberg anoints as the first confessional blogger. For more information on this entertaining, informative and important book, log on to a blog near you. Blogs are not a fad. They are a new species of written conversation, a complex network of influence spanning everything from political debates to torrid confessions to urgent bulletins from first responders. The days when three network anchors would tell us what to think are gone; now we get to tell one another.
