Ah, Lars-Christian! No one wants to talk to you in real life about your blog because you're in Norway. If you lived here in the United States, you'd have a perpetual string of very interesting conversations about your personal website because Americans are all about technology and hearing how any of us peons are fighting the power, man.

At least, I think that's what my wife's reaction is before she leaves the room to find a book to read. And my friends who think a blog is just part of my weird, personal brand, like using a phone with a keyboard.



You apparently have no idea about Norway. Norway was the very first internet country, because of its vast coastline and enormous distances. Schoolkids had internet remote classrooms since the 90ies.

Everybody there is online, and blogs are widely read. Much more than in the US.


HN voting system is stupid.
