Following the recent whirlwind of blog hype including Nick Denton’s love affair with the New York Times, his pie to the face at the Radar Magazine party, the launch of Blogebrity, Jason Calacanis’ three million micro-blogs, a sudden explosion of branded character blogs and “all marketers should blog” blog conferences, it’s now official. Rick Bruner and I, today, declare blogging to have gone the way of the trucker hat. In celebration of this sacred event, May 20, 2005, you can pick up your memorial, Nick Denton Trucker Hat over at Cafe Press.
