I am not. I am against the hyper choice barrier between me and the text I am looking for, all thanks to hyper hyperlinking. Again, everyone's mileage varies. Some people don't mind scanning two hundred links before deciding on what to click on. My objection is why is this not even an issue. It might seem as if I am against TEXT per se.

I am not.

I am against the hyper choice barrier between me and the text I am looking for, all thanks to hyper hyperlinking.

Again, everyone’s mileage varies. Some people don’t mind scanning two hundred links before deciding on what to click on.

When we have voiced our thoughts enough or when bandwidth becomes commonly multimegabit, no one in his or her right mind would spend hours upon hours pouring over senseless drivel. The most natural form of information sharing is sparingly hyperlinked multimedia with a sense of history. Media giants are FOR blogs because these are proof that they were always justified in their quality control (er) censorship. When people get tired of blogs they would go back to mass media instead of asking media giants to start providing them with sparingly hyperlinked multimedia with a sense of history (or whatever is your flavour of nirvana).
