Dave Winer’s link to RCB’s take on Lisa Guernsey’s article (why does Guernsey have two blog addresses, one at Salon and one not?) got picked up by Instapundit, who declared it “the final word” on the subject.

Which dreamt it?
Before it disappears, go and read Literary Devices by Richard Powers, published in cooperation with Zoetrope. Borges suggested that the reader writes Dante, Shakespeare, Cervantes.

Blog gender gap?
Lisa Guernsey has recently started a weblog about search engines. She writes in today’s Circuits section of the New York Times about the relative prominence of men in the blogosphere as compared with women. Many have pointed out, however, that blogs are a fairly egalitarian format, with women, people of color, and other groups who…

Holiday quality tour: thanks and sorry
Your Salon Blog Tour of Quality This is a holiday version of the quality tour, and I’ve got something I need to get off my chest. Oh Lord, I do hate to ever hate to apologize, but I’ve got to admit that I was a real asshole last week. I dissed some of the Salon…

Qual Tour (is this a guest editor?)
Your Salon Blog Tour of Quality Pesky the Rat has the inside information regarding the John Ashcroft “War on Redwoods.” Over at Reflections, Daniel Dolinov makes a number of unflattering remarks about mega-star Babs.

Tour to rotate
Your Salon Blog Tour of Quality A very quick and dirty tour, as it is only an hour till kick-off (Redskins/Rams) and I certainly won’t be in any shape to write when I get home. Eerily, Life On Earth has a perfect description of my morning. That kooky Googobits chronicles Lynda Van Devanter.…

Raven: "I hope we're not getting too competitive"
Being Judgemental. The Raven What I like to do is look around at other people’s blogs. Since my blog is here at Salon, I tend to look at salonblogs at least as much as I check out other people’s work elsewhere. Sure, I’m a bit critical, but life is short and you can’t read everything.…

Ex-Republican Huffington bemoans new Stepford Pelosi
I’ve been in there rooting for “San Francisco Democrat” Nancy Pelosi, though I know her mainly as a fundraiser, and cutting her some slack as she tries to reposition the Democrats in congress, but Arianna Huffington put her finger on a real concern in her recent Salon column today… [Bite Media]

Over 10,000 served at Dreaming of China
At some point most likely tonight, this blog will pass its 10,000th hit. I get a real sense of satisfaction out of that. Sure, I’m willing to be that at least 1,000 of those hits are from me reloading trying to figure out if this page design or that style sheet tweak worked, but still…
