[...] Valley, is completely absent any reason to the observer outside of the Valley. Keep in mind the Parable of the Three Bloggers as I quote [...]

Very good.
avoid silicon valley until this all blows over their heads, or you could risk it i suppose.

[...] If you’re interested in blogging as a communication medium, you may like to know how to use tags instead of categories or perhaps A Tale of Three Bloggers, a parable about three different mentalities in the online media world. [...]

Heh, anyone who clicks on a link in a comment about silicone boobies, at work, deserves everything they get…

…now where’s my coat?

Don’t worry I’m not removing it. I made the disclaimer for you. ;)

Should I have made a disclaimer?

Yeah, mine is those “personal PCs only” blogs. Sorry, ever’body.

Yeah and the only thing keeping me from removing your URL to prevent my readers from getting in trouble at work is my sense of anti-censorship. :)

You may be forgetting the most prolific blog peasant: Malaysia.

I’d probably be best categorized as a Silicone Valley girl. I have enough pride and arrogance for my blog that it would span the Rockies. Not that it matters that I’ve carved my own unique niche. :)

San Jose Sharks… :rolleyes: ;)

Go Sharks!

I can see similarities reflected in myself from all. I can be calm and collected, confident in myself, but also I like silicone boobies.

And I sincerely hope somebody gets the Sharks joke . . .

Hugh Grant has a blog? ;)

Wow that’d be ermm interesting :)

No I see what you’re saying… I didn’t point at myself either :)

I was trying to be modest, Andy. You know, Hugh Grant … sort of … ummmm… errrr… Yes.

Yes, I’d accept that, especially Steve Rubel, maybe even Doc and Tim Bray. You’re right, we Brits are taking over the world. :-)

By: Aaron

Aaron — Mon, 27 Feb 2006 15:03:12 +0000

John, I’d add that:

Jeremy Zawodny is British, Scoble is indeed Valley, Steve Rubel is British, Most of our b5ers are Australian (thanks to Duncan and Darren’s influence), Scrivs would be Australian, Etc…

Tag tutorial : How to integrate tags into your blog…

Aaron Brazell, publisher of Emerging Earth and Technosailor.com, has published at ProBlogger an outstanding tutorial on how to integrate tags into your blog and why it’s important. Many bloggers are tagging each of their posts. It’s done for at least…

I guess I’d call myself Australian by your definition. I like blogging but I hate when bloggers get full of themselves.

I know a fair amount of British bloggers but not many high profile ones. But then, all bloggers fit into one of these categories, not only the big ones.

By: John Evans (Syntagma)

John Evans (Syntagma) — Mon, 27 Feb 2006 10:37:47 +0000

Yes, I take your point. Scoble nd Winer are definitely Valleywag types. Duncan and Darren, most definitely Australian — Darren shading into the British type just a bit. Unfortunately I can’t think of any famous British bloggers, so I’ll have to pass on that one.

By: Aaron

Aaron — Mon, 27 Feb 2006 10:23:17 +0000

Haha. No plans to, John. Again, it’s the mentality I try to capture, not the actual citizenship/residency. I’m American but an Australian style blogger – thus, this post.

Aaron, I don’t know where you live, but I wouldn’t go near Silicon Valley for a while. :-)

I’m British and I suppose conform to the British stereotype, at least from a foreign perspective. We Brits see the nuances in ourselves.

I’m not sure the Americans are quite as bad as they’re always painted. When you have such a big country, it’s easy to think of it as the whole world.

Australians are definitely a breed apart. I lived there for two years and, believe me, you knew you weren’t in Stoke-on-Trent.
