Today I had blogger's block...

Michael Chabon (author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, Wonderboys) says about Google: "Writers of the past has absinthe, whiskey, or heroin. I have Google. I go there intending to stay for five minutes and the next think I know, seven hours have passed, I've written 43 words, and all I have to show for it is that I know the titles of every episode of The Nanny and the Professor.

While slothing around on Google today I found this Doonesbury strip: Blogger's Block.

Abigail: I think posting about posting about blogger's block is a little too meta, even for you
Me: I think it's just meta enough, thankyouverymuch.

Gary Trudeau, the creator of Doonesbury says about Google: "Google is my rapid response research assistant. On the run-up to a deadline, I may use it to check the spelling of a foreign name, to acquire an image of a particular piece of military hardware, to find the exact quote of a public figure, check a stat, or research the background of a particular corporation. It's the Swiss Army knife of information retrieval."

Why does today's blog feel like an episode of Pop-Up Video?
