The Brunching Shuttlecocks take on blogging:

we’ve at long last done away with the archaic idea that publishing is the private playground of people who have ideas, experiences, and opinions. As thousands of online journals and weblogs have demonstrated, the important thing is to make sure that you let your friends and the world at large know what you’re doing and thinking, even if you’re not actually doing or thinking anything.

A sample from their automated Apathetic Online Journal Entry Generator:

“Basically nothing noteworthy going on these days. My mind is like an empty room. Today was a total loss, but it’s not important. I’ve just been staying at home waiting for something to happen, but so it goes. I’ve just been letting everything wash over me, but that’s how it is. ”

Sad? True? What do you think?
