I couldn’t agree more.

The author also (wittingly or unwittingly) gets in a worthwhile criticism of the totally rote titles and topics that feature prominently on most of the blogs I come across.

Personally I’m far more partial to reading some published texts on any given topic before I wade into the jargon-laden shop-talk between bragging or propagandists.

And once I do... to be perfectly frank, I wish I hadn’t. The hypertext-based topic-entered websites and forums of Web 1.0 were a far superior medium for disseminating and discussing any kind of topic, to be perfectly honest.

hard to take this seriously with all the spelling/grammar errors

also it's a blog post advising against reading blog posts

I’m a grammar nazi and a stickler for form, but it’s pretty obvious the author deserves a pass for being a not being a native English speaker.

As for making a blog post decrying blog posts, I’d say the message is not the medium and ask you how you suggest he divulge is (noteworthy) message.
