The Original Dead Blogger

The blogging world was rocked this weekend.... rocked with laughter at an exceptionally large clot of crap emitted by the New York Times. No it wasn't a newsvertorial, but a warning about the dangers of blogging your little fingers down to worn, shredded bleeding stumps: In Web World of 24/7 Stress, Writers Blog Till They Drop.

Matt Richtel, a card-carrying San Francisco moron employed by the Times, put an escape hatch in his semi-soft dropping with: "To be sure, there is no official diagnosis of death by blogging, and the premature demise of two people obviously does not qualify as an epidemic."

But that was only because, since Richtel is an ignorant slut who couldn't code a myspace page, he did not know about the sad passing of Max, a man who blogged himself to death without an internet.

Now, however, there is a small memorial film to the life and death of Max and how his work still lingers on next to plates of wontons and pork fried rice everywhere.

Watch and give up a moment of silent thanks to..... to Max: (French with Subtitles)

We... are all Max now.
