If reading is dead

Author: Eric

Then, so is writing?

Another thought-provoking read on the art of writing for the Web. By someone who’s devoted a whole blog to trumpeting the “Content is King” refrain, while also stating a pretty compelling case that the Web has rendered the old standards for great writing obsolete. The guy’s an enigma, wrapped in a puzzle, stuffed in a fortune cookie. Or something. I say “guy” but I have no idea how the quasi-web-celebrity-one-name moniker translates to such analog classifications as gender.

I can’t say I agree with all of this author’s points, but it’s well worth the read. And, by reading it, you might even be proving “skellie” wrong. Oh, the sweet taste of irony.
