And I get that the word blog is silly, and that silly blogs are everywhere. But in feeling defensive about how much I enjoy this humble form, I wondered if it could, in fact, be art. Do blogs achieve greatness? Are blogs like serials back in the day of Charles Dickens? No one thought those were art—they were entertainment for worker bees! But look at us now.
