With the interactivity of the evolving Internet (blogging being the latest incarnation), television generally seems too passive to hold my interest for very long.

I’m guessing there will be several posts around the B-nacle on the election and on the Utah SSM amendment.

Justin’s site is the best out there right now, as far as I’m concerned.

Is blogging more interesting than TV? You’ve framed a fascinating question. It’s certainly more interactive and more participatory. It certainly provides more of a sense of community, which I think is essential and must be replenished like Vitamin C for a strong soul. So blogging is definitely better for you.

That being said, when you’re exhausted after work, turning on the set and turning off your mind is a great relaxer. Blogging can’t compete with that.
