Fonts and such...

Georgia seems like a nice font, not as nice as my current favourite, Trebeuchet, but it's a nice change from the one that I normally use, on the blog at least, which is Verdana...

Due to the fact that I am too stingy a person to pay for my blog... hey... notice that half my blog revolves around the fact that I am a poor woman, it kinda makes sense that I would not spend money on a blog that is not revenue generating. Have you ever wondered about how people like Tucker Max and Maddox are surviving? Based on their blog, they're actually publishing books. Granted, most people would term their books as trash, but hey, it's interesting to read.

One weird thing which I have noticed is about books is:
The moment someone reads a books, they grant it a level of credibility, associating it with being the ultimate truth.
BUT... don't you think a person who writes a book, is just as liable to get it wrong, as something that's found on the web (generally taken with less crediblity?)
In fact, stuff on the web, assuming the person is free enough update it regular, is probably better reference material than items in a book, which cannot be updated, unless you're made of money and buy every new edition that comes out.

Some of the reasons I can think of offhand, that grants credibility to books are:
1a) The author has to be good, cuz publishers and distributors are putting in money to try and sell their books
1b) Any tom, dick or hairy, oops, I mean harry, can write on the www. Hell, they can even post for free, like me!

2a) If the information remains stagnant, if leaves people more time to think about what has been said, and they can respond better to that as a result.
2b) Constantly moving information in the www means that people don't have time to digest information before more comes along, thought processes are incomplete, leaving all thoughts halfbaked.

But heck, this topic is too serious for a midweek morning at the office. I shall... start work. wahaha... what an exciting thought! yeah me!!!
