We're Not Considered Part Of the "Blogisphere" Right?

Because we're not, technically, a blog.

There's a piece on MSNBC right now about the blogs' reaction to Clinton tearing up. I'm wondering if we'd ever see anyone quote us here. But I guess not. :(

4. DU's Journals are a bit like blogs

But technically, DU is not a blog. I think it's much more fun than most blogs.

7. "blogs are for serious discussion."

:rofl:

I dunno about that -- 99 percent of blogs are navel-gazing, what-I-had-for-breakfast garbage.

Now leave!

:P

10. Blogs are "rah rah" for a specific candidate too.

Blogs are linked here all the time cheerleading (and criticizing) for certain candidates.
