No Overrated Big BlogsJohn Hawkins had a question last week about which big blogs were overrated. I quickly replied that none were in my opinion. Yeah, it's easy to point to the liberal blogs, and wonder at their success, but that's somewhat like me as a SF 49er fan decrying the Oakland Raiders' blog--they aren't writing for my benefit. So cross the liberal blogs off the list and go down the list of
big "right-wing" blogs and tell me who's overrated?
Nobody. Oh, there are times I get frustrated with individual bloggers who threaten to leave the Republican fold over ID or stem cells, but let's face it, I'm reading those blogs and I care about what they say because they're great blogs.
One of my favorite blogs is Michele Catalano's
A Small Victory. She writes a lot of cultural stuff; about video games, comic books, baseball, metal music, and it's tempting to think that her blog is just for fun.
Well, not solely. She has
a terrific post up today about the good stories coming out of New Orleans, one of those posts where other bloggers feel their gonads shrinking as they recognize their inadequacy. We are not worthy!
