"This is not just being written by me ("I do not know which one of us wrote this."). The computer, the browser, Dave Winer's user interface, the publishing infrastructure-they are all playing a part to cultivate a certain kind of writing from, different from what I write by hand in my private notebook here by my speaker. I once said, or wish I had, that e-mail is telepathy version 1.0. The blogosphere makes/helps us say things that might not otherwise be said, out loud, in public, with comments." [my ephasis]

So true!  The pen has been replaced with ... the blog is mighter than the sword.
