20 Years of bavatuesdays

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Y2zBFZ-AZo

I did it. 4,000 posts in 20 years, averaging a clean 200 posts a year. NOBODY!*

Zombie Malls

This post started as a comment on Martin Weller’s post “Meet me by the Blogroll,”  but it felt like something I might want to alos have on the bava proper, so here we are.

Martin’s post draw a parallel between the life and death of the mall (a space near and dear to my 70s and 80s childhood) and the blogosphere. As with all of his metaphors, they are provocative in some really creative ways […]
