rc3.org Rafe Colburn on software development (and other topics)

I’m thinking Tyler is confusing “like” with “admire”, but I could be wrong here. Blogs aren’t a new form of writing, they’re a new medium of delivery. There have been some writers I enjoy that turn out to be perfectly beastly in person.

Granted, that feeds back, and I find myself not enjoying the work now that I’ve met the person, but I’m betting the same might be true for the occasional blogger, too.

Conversely, there are people I like and admire that by their own admission couldn’t write their way out of a paper bag, which would inhibit the whole blogging thing.

I could imagine somebody you’re fond of writing about a specific hobby or work interest of theirs that doesn’t interest you, such that you don’t enjoy their blog. but that’s different from disliking the blog and/or its voice…
