Sam McManis of The Sacramento Bee wrote a little piece today that landed him in a few newspapers around the country. The story is titled 10 Candles for Blogs.

In the story he reveals that blogs have become popular (now there’s a revelation), but then ends it with this statement (I’m not making this up)

So, in another 10 years, maybe blogging will have matured enough to gain the respect to go with the popularity.

What? You mean you don’t actually r-e-s-p-e-c-t me? You just use me cuz I’m popular?

Earth to Sam, that ship sailed a while back!
