Internet Thought.
Unless you can create a relatively clean feedback loop between your internet activity and your daily life - your efforts will have been wasted, and your work will sit in a vacuum.

If you're unable to make that link: better to mow the lawn, or help an old lady across the road.

The division between internet media and established media is a trick, a scam.

It's a way of siphoning dissident voices away from mainstream media.

It's like giving all the troublemakers a big playroom where they can make all the noise they want, and not be heard.

I should note here that I do at leat partially agree with your initial thesis. However I don't find the Internet an inconsequential medium, especially as it expands to encompass old media as well as exploiting its own unique properties.

Yeah, sure.

Whenever I pick up a book these days, I'm frequently frustrated by not being able to cross-reference, etc.

My frustration is less with the internet itself, and more with it's stubborn refusal to whip the crown off the head of the 'normal' unconsenting media.

Perhaps we're just getting to the harnel-aoot of things.
