Mail & Guardian doesn’t get it
Posted by Rich...! under Uncategorized on May 29 2005 at 9:30 PMThere was a blogging lunch, and you weren’t invited.
| bb-mat, Dreaded Outsider and I will be there – all other interested M&G bloggers are welcome to join us. |
M&G bloggers only? Is it just me or are these guys really missing the point, isn’t the idea to broaden our horizons?
Only typepad users need comment…!

Hey, speaking of bloggers, did you get to the one in CT on the 26th? Did I miss the post or was there no feedback?

Erm, sorry, but I don’t think any of us knew that Jo’blog existed !
Now we do !
BTW, the meeting was initially for Temoris Grecko, a visiting journalist from Mexico.
Several people on M&G Blog offered to meet Temoris and show him around joburg.
It eventually turned into a meeting of bloggers from M&G. Myself, Micatyro and Dreaded outside know each other well.
We apologise for not having physic powers.
Next time we’ll know to post on Jo’blog too.

… oops – “We apologise for not having physic powers.”
We apologise for not having psychic powers either ! … DOH.

BB_matt is a bit of a sarcastic prat….’ I don’t think any of us knew that Jo’blog existed ! Now we do !’
Easy big boy….play nice…and you’d better brush up on those psychic powers because we want and invite too.

Oh well, I suppose we’re not all A-list material…

Wow, that’s quite an acrobatic display of irony there, again you don’t get it.
I wasn’t suggesting that you should invite Jo’blog as such, I was simply pointing out that you said “…M&G bloggers welcome”, instead of “…bloggers welcome”, I read your feed too, is that not allowed?
There’s intelligent life beyond M&G pal…!

Erm – folks – I really did not know that Jo’Blog existed !
M&G is the first place I’ve ever blogged – I spend most my times on various forums and only started blogging a few months back.
It really is as simple as that. If you want to turn it into something more, it’s your perogative.
Bottom line, it seems that various Blogging sites can sort of turn into “clubs” – just through the very nature of human interaction.
I found the M&G Blogspot, liked what I saw and joined and started posting.
Please read this blog of mine :-

I think that’s where this whole thing came from – you picked up on something you considered as an “us” when in reality, it’s just a bunch of individuals posting their musings. There’s no “us” vs “you” – at least, there wasn’t until you made it so.

*sigh* again, this is not us vs you, it was simply an observation, generally people have blogger dinners where everyone’s invited.
C’mere and give me a hug bro…!

Someone is missing some point somewhere. I just have a feeling about this; call it sixth sense.
