Slowing it down

Culture No Comments

By Arran Gold

Friday’s edition of NYT published an interesting article on slow blogging and your correspondent read it in a characteristic slow fashion, hence the delayed post.  It notes the following:

A Slow Blog Manifesto, written in 2006 by Todd Sieling, a technology consultant from Vancouver, British Columbia, laid out the movement’s tenets. “Slow Blogging is a rejection of immediacy,” he wrote. “It is an affirmation that not all things worth reading are written quickly.”

The Slow Blog is of course manifestation of a wider phenomenon of “slow movement” and “slow life“.  Your correspondent will post his thoughts on this topic in due course.
