Blogging versus journalism...

My blog was quoted today in an article by a Reuters reporter. Unfortunately no link back to my blog and no mention of my name. I'm guessing Spencer isn't a blogger so that's OK (although it would have been really cool to see my name in there). I guess that the linking convention is something that is drawing people away from traditional journalism (even online) to blogging. There's always the credibility factor with blogging (hey, there's some of that in the newspaper business too these days) and less objectivity so I'm predicting that  major (not tech) news outlets develop a middle-ground that is the best of both world. But then can you share the “human side“ of the journalist and consider him/her objective?

Anyway, Spencer, next time, could you give a girl a break and throw a link in there? Are you allowed to do that?  Thanks for the mention (people might find me by searching on the quote, I guess).

Hmm, maybe I will send my blog link to my Mom...look Mom, I'm almost famous!
