Completely forgot to post it

Two days ago I went to the 16th (already) edition of the BrusselsGirlGeekDinners, which interestingly was about books. Famous blogster ImkeDielen has signed a book deal: a collection of 50 of her blogpostings have been published. Food for a philosophical discussion! Why bother, I would think. Even if blogpostings actually treat stuff that's happening, it's like reading old newspapers. Publishing blogs on the other hand, might just be the beginning of something like publishing auto-biographies. Some blogs really are interesting and cool and have some added value that transcends the here and now. In which case I really would be more interested in reading a blog that spans a more consistent period of time. After all: it would be just like publishing letters or diaries. So ... maybe it is the start of someting greater.
