Are Blogging and Unemployment Related?
Roland Piquepaille writes "The Washington Post is really nice with bloggers. Yesterday, it carried an article named "Free Speech -- Virtually," or "Legal Constraints on Web Journals Surprise Many 'Bloggers'". Today, Cynthia L. Webb focuses on an hypothesis from Chris Gulker, which he exposed in a column published by The Independent, "The View from Silicon Valley: Bloggers come in from the cold." As said Chris Gulker, "Many of us are Webloggers 'bloggers' for short. It would be interesting to see if there's a correlation between the meteoric rise of blogging, the practice of keeping a frequently-updated online journal, and the rise of unemployment in Silicon Valley and other tech corridors. Check this column for a summary or the original article for more details."

A: We is here to show you SlashFUCKS that the black man can use teh internet too. Ya se... Jerome goes and bust some white boy upside da head and steals his 'puter, and his nikes. So we took it to some whore house and turn it on. But you can't do shit wit it. So Jerome go back out and threatens some white trash ATT fag and he hooks it up wit da free internet.
Any mo questions... post that shiz up!
well now that we have courses at major universities all about weblogging we may have a seperate part of our job description set aside just for weblogging!
I personally think education is important. Having a BS degree in Computer Science or atleast CIS, should be made pre-requisite for all IT related jobs. Real Jobs require problem solving skills, and the only way to get these skills is to attend a proper university. If you wanna spend all your life performing backups, than I think you can live without proper education.
This is what happened in the DOT COM bust. Lots of unqualified people, without any problem solving skills and proper education got hired, and that pushed the companies down the drain.
Consensus is good, but informed dictatorship is better
