Backwash
I got an email telling me my Budapest
pages were linked to on Backwash.com under
a column called Newthink.
Backwash calls itself a web surfing community that organizes the web "according
to personality", not subject matter. It looks like a collection of strictly
structured weblogs: the entries are weekly columns and there's a separate listing
for recommended links.
Interesting that someone is trying to impose some structure on something as
amorphous as a weblog. I have a feeling non-webloggers don't really know what
to make of weblogs. Is Backwash a format that's easier to understand, having
the weekly (hence predictable, familiar and like print) publishing schedule
and the separate list of links? Will this kind of idea bring the concept of
the personal reputation
manager to a wider audience?
