Wired notes the upsurge in weblogging:

“…For example, Memepool recently provided

links to sites for creating your own Old

Testament adventure, bubblewrap

lingerie, and entomophagy.

At the same time, Yahoo’s What’s New

linked to Philip Morris, Quaker Oatmeal,

and Clover Stornetta Farms.

Barger says in these days of

commerce-driven portals, weblogs are by

far the best way to explore the Net. So

efficient is the weblog circuit, Barger

estimates that anything new on the Web

will filter through the system within a

month.”
