On the impact of social media
Dear Internet,
Just because someone has a blog doesn't make them an expert. Just because someone has a Twitter account, doesn't make them a trendsetter. It means they signed up to a web site. Don't kid yourself into thinking you discovered the next big thing simply because it's on the interwebs. Expertise is determined by peer review and concrete demonstration of results, not diatribe.
This include yours truly.
It's the real world. Judge, and be prepared to be judged.
That is all.
-- Your gracious yet skeptic host

You take away what you bring
And leave some behind

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe...
