“Moe von PlaticThinking”:http://weblog.plasticthinking.org/item/2005/2/23/die-faz-ueber-wuetende-blogger war, was “den FAZ-Artikel”:http://www.faz.net/s/Rub8A25A66CA9514B9892E0074EDE4E5AFA/Doc~EF7224C2C3B1D48579122F2D85FC33EFD~ATpl~Ecommon~Scontent.html angeht, über den “ich mich gestern aufgeregt habe”:http://diaet.blogsome.com/2005/02/22/und-die-faz/ deutlich recherchefreudiger. Und hat sich einfach mal den zitierten “Businessweek-Artikel”:http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/feb2005/tc20050217_2991_tc120.htm durchgelesen.
Lustigerweise kommt dieser — ganz im Gegensatz zur ängstlichen FAZ — zu ganz anderen Schlüssen:
bq. If the bloggers appear to be censorious, it’s only because the rest of society plays along. In truth, blogging represents an explosion of free speech. While blogs certainly empower lynch mobs, they can also lead to long and open conversations, virtual town meetings. These are the greatest antidote to censorship and secrecy.
Und einem — gar nicht mehr überraschenderweise — vollkommen anderen Fazit:
bq. The best way to gain a measure of control over this flood of information is to contribute to it.
Read a blog or two and post a response. *Better yet, start your own.*
Thanks Moe.
