Legal Commentary

Unabashedly oldschool (tragically unhip) blogging

By Beldar

For the record, in response to Wired's claim (h/t Instapundit) that blogs are "so 2004":

My blog has always been for "long-form writing," as my masthead conspicuously warns.  I'm generally satisfied with how my posts fare in search engine rankings. I don't think my commenters are 'tards. I don't have a Facebook entry, and neither do I Twitter, although when properly amused I may chortle.

I have no aspiration to put up 30 posts per day, nor to turn a profit through advertising. I am perfectly content for such readers who may find their way here from time to time to do so because they hope I might provide them with sufficiently "clever, insightful, witty prose to compete with [the] Huffington [Post] and The New York Times" ? neither of whom I hold in high regard, and both of whom surely need all sorts of further alternatives on the internet. Ultimately, however, I write here for my own enjoyment.
