Doc Searls is souring on the web. Having once viewed blogging as “sending email that’s ‘cc:world’”, he now views the web as a “whiteboard”. What’s interesting to me is that any lost traces of my own past selves were lost solely because I ended a project, or let a domain lapse, without putting its posts up in some sort of public archive. The whiteboard of my own blog-life is purely of my own making.
