I can’t help thinking that at some point in time the information superhighway will reach overload. When there will be a decline in demand for the latest goofy video on youtube, the newest SNS (social networking site) the most outrageous and shocking celebrity photo. At some point in time will the internet culture have enough? My daughter is thirteen and an avid myspace user, will this be the passing phase I hope it is? What will entertain her next year—more of the same? As it is we are all withdrawing into the world of our own music with our iPods. And then while writing this it struck me that blogging is perhaps the most purposeful addition to this mass of burgeoning information that continually reduces the world to individualistic cerebral fancy. Gotta go.
