Cronin complains about blogs … on a blog

Just found this sorta funny (via skagirlie).

Blaise Cronin (an MLS professor) posted a “Dean’s notes” article about blogs in his college’s SLIS News.

The funny part? You can subscribe to the RSS feed. So - when he asks “Why do they choose to they [sic] expose their unremarkable opinions”? … is he asking himself that question???

And of course, his last line - “Librarians, of course, know better.” My question - I wonder if he knows he’s just been Punk’d (translation - unintentionally complained about blogs via an RSS feed, a close cousin to blogs)?

    As an encore, Cronin will complain about those boring patronship drives while being interviewed on a PBS station.
