Ah, the magic of the web...
So I was at movable type and I was surfing around some other people's blogs. It's really interesting how the web works. The gentleman who runs boing boing managed to get into a commercial for Apple computers. Kottke and Zeldman get interviewed. The people at movable type contribute to O'Reilly books. Its strange how merely writing online can change your life.
And that, to me, is what the web is about. All of a sudden, way more people than ever before can be "published". Suddenly, networks form of people with different tastes than their local friends, but similar tastes to distant unfound friends. Instantly, it turns into a small world. Technology: a wonderfult thing.
