Other blogs and this cheap one

Thought #1: I wish I could spend more time updating this blog.

Thought #2: Who cares? No one reads it!

Thought #3: It seems many blogs manage to achieve daily updates and large volume simply by linking to other blogs and citing certain newspaper articles as "must reads" (See the hearalded D.C. Wonkette - it would seem their only original content is the witty prefaces and headlines that precede links to others' content. Even Juan Cole's Informed Comment seems just as much an audit of Arabic language newspapers as it is political commentary).

Thought #4: Gee, isn't that what I just started doing last month by posting newspaper articles?

Thought #5: Shut up.
