USA Today, that bastion of hard news, is covering a new fad popular with the kids called “B-logging.” They talk about two “b-loggers,” Om Malley and Mike Orvington, who used to work at real jobs and now eat ice cream and write about computers.
Now I don’t know who these people are or what they think they’re doing, but I think it’s bad to show people that you can make “real money” — how much, Om Malley? $5? HA! — doing this. There are jobs that Americans should be doing — car repair, HVAC installation, dance instruction — that are going empty while these two jokers sit around all day pretending to work. For shame. “B-logging,” like stamp collecting and religious observance, should be considered a hobby and nothing more. Let’s not encourage these bozos.

Who are these guys and what is a blog?
Glad to see USA Today is in touch with today’s mediums…er, um mediums originating circa six years ago. Dang.
Blogging should really be left to the professionals. :)
did anyone fire you yet? :-)
ummm… no sir?
More like, “Sarcasm? What’s sarcasm?” (and why are you throwing it around like so much confetti?) It’s good to see all this attention hasn’t gone to your head.
You know “b-logging” is getting pretty serious when people start registering them as corporations, a la TechCrunch. What I like about this is that you’re actually publicly poking some fun at your CEO… Try doing that in the rest of Corporate America! :P
