It has been a few months since I discovered blogs. When I first learnt about them I was a somewhat skeptical--blogging looked like the perfect match of exhibitionism and voyeurism. Since then the blogging community has taught me better. Through blogs I have met so many wonderful people who have turned their everyday lives into a completely new form of literature. A literature that is free of the monopoly of the printing press and the tyranny of the bestseller. A literature that has a place for every hue of taste and opinion. Expecting the cacophony and oneupmanship of Usenet, I have been pleasantly surprised by the civility and good taste that generally prevails in the comment spaces of blogs.
But those who take must also give. Hence this blog. What I might lack in knowledge and wit, I shall try to make up by novelty and sincerety. The frankest criticism will earn the greatest thanks.
Let the show begin!
