The meaning of life....(well who's blogging and who cares about who's blogging)

Hmmm is the irish blogosphere representative? Who cares? Why should it be? Do we need to be like the blogsphere in the USA? How representative is the blogosphere in the USA really? Does anyone in the USA care either? Why are those who query the representativity of the Irish blogsophere worried?

A sociologist thinks... took me an hour in Liffey Valley to think that! Hence why sociologists are poor.

Exactly. In a small market, I don't know if you're ever going to have anything that's truly representative of the so-called majority or reality or whatever you want to call it.

Take retail shopping - you can pretty much buy what is in-season/fashionable or you can trudge through Oxfam and hope to get what you want. I challenge anyone to find a simple pair of black non-low-rise, non-city-shorts trousers for women in any of the retail shops in the entire city of Dublin. They're not in fashion right now. Go to the States and you can have them in about 5 minutes.

If you're talking about who I assume Iyou're talking about, I believe he's laying the ground for explaining the dearth of Freedom Instituteers in the Irish Blog awards.

Let's see how they like this Free Market (and not their silly, rigged 'Liberty awards')
