Finally relevant to current news items

I had a few other reasons to blow off Amazon Kindle, like that whole looks like something out of Logan's Run thing. Not that I have anything against Logan's Run, but you see what I mean, right? No Carousel, no Jenny Agutter, what's the point?

Then, I heard that if you want to read what Amazon thinks you want to read blogs, you'll need to pay for the privilege.  Not even Farrah Fawcett could sweeten that deal.

I know how this goes. Everyone scoffed at Random_Internet_Sea_Change_01, and there's a very real possibility that we'll embrace this new direction of information sharing with soma-riddled arms and be the better for it. But if that happens, I reserve the right to be sad then in the same way I'm sad now about not using Galaticomm BBSes anymore.
