Kent Newsome has been taking a beating lately. I've been busy but I've been watching as he has been doing his viral blogging/tagging experiment and also as he has kind of inserted himself into the latest blogosphere flap. I enjoy reading his stuff and his thinking is usually pretty spot on. If you're wondering what a cold, harsh, place the blogosphere can be, or wondering how it might just be made a little warmer, you might want to check out some of his recent posts.
