Philip Greenspun: “What is the point of blogging?”:http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/philg/2003/10/04#a2500

bq. Blogs are interesting because they support the 2-paragraph idea.† It is sort of ridiculous to create a separate .html file for every little aphorism or fleeting thought and it would be a shame to clog search engines with pages that have such a high machinery-to-content ratio.† Blogs and the RSS format make it work.† Everyone can write like Nietzsche or a Marcus Aurelius, even if few people ever come up with enough clever small ideas to fill a 200-page book.
