            News is for the moment better funded and enjoys a more secure future
            than most of the rather small number of fine reporters around the
            world who ultimately create most of its content. The aggregator is
            richer than the aggregated.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.edge.org/3rd_culture/lanier06/lanier06_index.html"><FONT size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The
              question of new business models for content creators on the Internet
              is a profound and difficult topic in itself, but it must at least
              be pointed out that writing professionally and well takes time
              and that most authors need to be paid to take that time. In this
              regard, blogging is not writing. For example, it's easy to be loved
              as a blogger. All you have to do is play to the crowd. Or you can
              flame the crowd to get attention. Nothing is wrong with either
              of those activities. What I think of as real writing, however,
              writing meant to last, is something else. It involves articulating
              a perspective that is not just reactive to  yesterday's moves
          in a conversation.</FONT></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/51E3B7C1-9537-4C4A-BDCF-B6B4DC8DB1F3/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
