The "Whatever Blog"

If any of you are interested in the history of blogging or the study of blogging social media, you should probably know the name “John Scalzi.”


He’s a freelance writer & sci-fi novelist who’s been blogging since the term was practically invented. I believe he holds the record for longest consistent blogger? (twelve years!)

I just bought his (latest?) book – “Your Hate Mail will be Graded” which is basically just excerpts from his blog – aptly named “Whatever” because it’s usually about *whatever* he wants to write about – and it’s been a pretty great read so far. The chapters are pretty short (as most blogposts are) and flow pretty nicely.


Anyway, enough plugging for one day. (I’ve been doing that a lot lately, haven’t I?)
