In Praise of Blogging

Blogging
This is really good.
An excerpt:
“Blogging is an opportunity to think. As one of my favorite writers said, ‘language is the technology of thought’. I further believe thinking and writing are not coincidental acts, they are the same act. To blog is to think in public, sometimes in a more gratifying way because you have readers, sometimes in a more embarrassing way because you have contradictors. But I believe thinking is important enough to risk it.
Blogging might not make you a great thinker, but then reading the Bible won’t make you a great Christian either. Both are a move in the right direction.”
