Blogeoisie

Authored by Michael Pate on May 18th, 2003 at 7:06 PM

Bill Thompson has coined the term blogeoisie, which he defines as “a dominant class in network society.” It is meant to be used as a shorter replacement of Andrew Orlowski’s “‘A-list’ tech bloggers.” Geoffrey Nunberg, writing in the New York Times, jumps on the bandwagon as well, but forgot to coin a catchphrase to go with his article. I haven’t read Cass R. Sunstein’s Republic.com yet, but I fully intend to, because their arguments sound very much like some of the points he seems to have been trying to make.
