Encounter of the homemade

Hi!!!
I've been wandering and tumblelogging. Now I can tell what I met : three classes of blogs.

# 1 - made by specialists for themselves or other specialists or a greater public. Nice design.
# 2 - offered by people who seem to follow a trend, a fashion - let's blog. Few things to remember.
# 3 - lovable content, whatever the themes, whatever the layout. These are utterly (!) subjective : it is my choice and I'll try to share it 7/7, 24/24 or every other moment.

Blog culture is sophistry

SunirShah says that Blog culture is sophistry :
Plato ripped apart the Sophists for their deception, their unsubtantive mimickry. Blog culture is sophistry. The passing off of other people's knowledge as one's own; simply copy&paste&link&post. Voila, I am an InstaPundit?
... The very structure of blogs frustrate the Platonic dialectic. They are temporal, personal, authoritative, printed, mnemonic, and ephemeral.

Note the "?", which is old wiki's convention : "this link has yet to be created". One answer ...
The strength of the blog model, is that it gives people incentives for doing something that is valuable to the whole community. When bloggers 'disseminate memes' they disseminate the ideas that are attached to those memes. So acting to their own egoistic motives they generate a value for the whole. -- ZbigniewLukasiak
