First post...

I don't like blogs generally - in principle they are a great idea, in practice they are often not much more than an electronic version of vanity publishing. Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean that the whole world has to hear it or that your views are any more valid for being blogged. The Your shout approach only works if you know what you are talking about. All too often I find myself agreeing with Sid Vicious' response when he was asked about 'the man in the street' - track the quote down...Tony Wilson is fond of using it.
