"broken cd" doesn't sound the same.

Tom Watson: Moving Comments Up II

The panel, moderated by the numerically bylined Jennifer 8. Lee of the Times, had all the usual blogging revolution points.

MSM doesn't get it. Check.

Dean's campaign was just the start. Check.

The gatekeepers are toast. Check.

The revolution is being led by a hundred or so paunchy, middle-aged, all-white, predominantly male cybergeeks clinging to laptops like life rafts on the Lusitania. Check - no wait, that was just a snarky observation Andrea and I made about the audience.

In any case: blah, blah, blah, blog, blog, blog.

This is a remarkably economical and precise observation. Better yet, it pretty much sums up what you'd read any given day on BuzzMachine or Jay Rosen, save the condescending chanting of "citizens media." So just read this post 2 or 3 times per day and now look at all that time you've saved on blog triumphalism.

You know, there may be a need for a Blogging Bullshit Generator. Maybe this afternoon....
