Nancy pointed me to the Squirrel Report, a sorta gun-bloggers Internet call-in show. In the latest episode, Breda mentions she quit blogging because the gunblogosphere has become an echo chamber. Is that true? I think it is, somewhat. Breda is not being critical, in fact she notes it's a good thing and it means "we're winning".
So what is to become of this gunblogosphere? I don't know, but I'm thinking the best thing to do for my itty-bitty corner of it is to just be me -- no more compartmentalizing the other parts of my life, and what better way to show that Hoplorati are normal people. Which means at some point I'm gonna shut down Bus Error and start doing the tech blogging over here (in addition to everything else). That blog hasn't been getting the love for some time anyway.
Concur, we remain ourselves and while we 'may' sound similiar, we ARE individuals...
ReplyDeleteI understand that not everyone likes to share about their lives, but I enjoy getting to know people and reading about their lives with and without guns.
ReplyDeleteNFO and A Girl, thanks for the support.
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling you. (And you feel sexy, cutie)
ReplyDeleteI was going to be another gun blogger, then I opened my mouth and all this other B.S. spilled out.
I like reading about your IT geekery, even though I only understand the small words.
I stopped fisking anti-gun articles and politcal rants long ago because others are so good at it. I prefer now to post shooty type things and pick out flaws in movies or bible stories.
