When I was in Portland, I noticed a lot of zines.
You see, zines are what people used to call blogs.
They were way more interactive, way more creative.
There's something about the tactile sensation of holding something as opposed to staring at a screen, too.
That's why I think there's going to be a backlash from mp3s and all the other digital media.
People are going to want to hold a record cover. They're going to want the sensation of putting a cassette into a deck...some colorful, 12" x 12" artwork. Some real analog sound and visuals, too. Mark my words!
Anyway, gotta go and do a little research about getting a new external hard drive...

You have to admit--it's kind of funny that you blogged about this.
Don't worry, I'm well aware of the irony.
