Nick Carr: The Great Unread

Nicholas Carr has posted a thoughtful essay on “The Great Unread“, describing the relationship between the powerful and the powerless in the blogosphere:

What we tell ourselves about the blogosphere – that it’s open and democratic and egalitarian, that it stands in contrast and in opposition to the controlled and controlling mass media – is an innocent fraud.

It’s an excellent read, and has generated some good comments as well.
