blogging thought of the day

From a letter to the editor of Salon, in response to an article about a nanny who was fired after her employer read the nanny's blog (which she had told the employer about, and which contained musings on the family she worked for):
    "I have the right to express myself!" I'm sure [the nanny] would claim. But I have the right to say that I find the entire phenomenon of blogging, with its staggeringly adolescent focus on the One and Only Me, to be indicative of an utter disregard for other people, a fraternal-twin to the phenomenon of cellphone users who screech away on the street without any conception that they are forcing others to listen.

My initial thought is, this is an incredibly clumsy argument, to compare bloggers with cell-phone yammerers, since nobody is forced to listen to a blogger. Honestly, don't people learn critical thinking skills anymore?

Still... Bloggers. Adolescent. Disregard for other people. Discuss...
