You know what is so great about Jason‘s project? He himself publishes it. He has survived blogging, social media, instagram, Facebook and is still actually interesting. There were so many publishers in the early days when he got started, but so few still publish. In fact, my heart aches for a return to the originality that we had an individual publishing at the time when the site got started.
I’m not being nostalgic. I genuinely, and passionately want to have that specific energy back on the Internet, and believe it will happen eventually as the pendulum swings the other way. There will come a time when people read discover the joy of writing and connecting individually via that writing. So much of the value of the Internet has been supplanted by platforms, to the point where meaning has been lost in interpersonal communications because it has been monetized and in many ways obliterated. Eventually these companies will come back into balance, for users will abandon them because there is no meaning. I suppose, being a student of Roman history, that I could be wrong.
I have been a fan from day one, and I appreciate publishing it. Congratulations.
