If I ever write another book it will probably be about one of three topicsThe first is the truth about how the press and journalism really works - the sausage making - to show just how much of a beautiful, subjective and chaotic mess it all is.
The second idea is to talk about how perfect blogging is, with its constant feedback loop, as a training ground for mass psychology and manipulationThe third idea I'm keeping to myself for now, but it's more startup focused.
It's the second one that's been on my mind latelyMostly because it's become pretty clear to me that any blogger worth her salt could start, say, an extremely successful militant religious cult
Any blogger will tell you how frustrating the early days are.
Getting someone, anyone, to link to youYour first comment! etcAnd as your audience grows you are introduced to the first rule of anonymous human behavior - it's dark and brutal, and reminds me how thin the veil of civilized behavior really is.
If there is something nasty that can be said, someone will say itOver and over
