That’s today’s cartoon from Hugh Macleod of Gaping Void. His site, and the discussion around this cartoon in particular are worth reading. Hugh is a real charmer, but obviously with a biting sense of humor. The percentage of blogs trying to make money (mostly unsuccessfully) is a substantial part of the landscape. I feel very fortunate to be able to blog as much as I do. Was that too boring to read? If so, too bad – no one is paying me to write this blog. I’ll do it however I like!

That’s terrible, isn’t it? Obviously it doesn’t quite work that way. Many people talk about new communication technologies moving us away from a page view centric model and towards a lead-generation model. Thus offending people here is far from inconsequential.
