Who's Afraid of a Little Revolution?
Posted by Sam at 5:52 PM
I'm really not surprised at all, but it seems that certain large corporations are blocking blogs from their employees' internet access. Wow... that's some crazy-whack paranoia. Why are blogs on the blacklist? What is it about blogs that cause a such a stir in corporate America? Are they afraid of sambot? Is corporate America afraid of revolution? Are they afraid of sambot leading the revolution? Yes, I think corporate America is absolutely afraid of a sambot lead revolution. Rise up! Blog on! Smash the state! Punk rock!
Oh... right. The article is running over at Wired. Enjoy.

Sam,
I know that public schools filter out a lot of the Blog-o-sphere. A lot of the people in my class can't post to the class blog from school. Which I guess is pretty ironic when you consider that we spent a lot of time examining the blog as a teaching tool.

Unlike sambot--where I blog about life's absurdity, coffee, Apple computers, or whatever else happens to float through my consciousness--this blog will focus exclusively on the act of blogging itself... including the technology behind the medium, the subculture that develops, and the unexpected (yet nonetheless impressive) ways that other bloggers find use for this continuously evolving mechanism.
