Jones Theory of the Merry-Go-Blogosphere

How the Blogosphere Works...Really!

Blog veteran and mayor of Blogsboro, Billy (the blogging poet) Jones, explains how the blogosphere is not a sphere at all, but more like a record album, or perhaps, a merry-go-round. A record album is flat, and one starts at the edge and moves to the center over time. But, Mister Jones surmises, a merry-go-round might actually be a better metaphor since the same properties hold true, but the dangerous kickwork of those at the periphery also plays a big part...just as it does in the real blogosphere.

THESE THINGS AND MORE at Billy's new blog, inexplicably called BillysNewBlog. I fail to see the connection.
