After some server troubles on Friday (that stretched into Saturday), Neocon News is back up and running. Thanks for the patience. You can expect new content on Monday without delay.

Unless blogging kills me, that is.

A growing work force of home-office laborers and entrepreneurs, armed with computers and smartphones and wired to the hilt, are toiling under great physical and emotional stress created by the around-the-clock Internet economy that demands a constant stream of news and comment.

Of course, the bloggers can work elsewhere, and they profess a love of the nonstop action and perhaps the chance to create a global media outlet without a major up-front investment. At the same time, some are starting to wonder if something has gone very wrong. In the last few months, two among their ranks have died suddenly.

It’s a murder mystery! Actually it’s a crock, but to each their own. Blogging is hard work, and it detracts from your free time (unless you’re lucky enough to do it as a career) but it certainly is rewarding and interesting. Blogging doesn’t kill you, it increases your intellectual awareness, which is more than I can say for most of what comes out of the New York Times.
