Berke Breathed on blogging -- from 1987

Do APIs, SDKs and feature triage count as 'issues of unimaginable complexity?'
I found some old Bloom County books the other day, and was howling with laughter at the author's 20-year-early prediction of the blogging phenomenon.

I think "LHPuttgrass" needs to become a social tagging standard for when everyday schleps start talking.  hehe

(Note: there are many occasions in which I'd categorize myself as an L.H. Puttgrass, and certainly we eventually got more skin on HBO, in the form of Cinemax!)

1 - Hands down, my favorie comic ever. I still have every Bloom County book in my closet. My Bill the Cat doll had a place in my office for years. My Bill the Cat for President t-shirt from who knows when finally fell apart in the wash after about 10 years of constant wear. Man, I missed him. Outland was scattered, and the new Sunday Opus isn't too shabby, but I miss the everyday chuckles.
