Hugh Macleod on When God Asked Me To Take Over

Inspired by Dave Winer's impending blog suicide:

[from gapingvoid: when god]

I remember when God asked me to take over for Him. As I ws inventing RSS at the time, I sadly had to turn him down. But imagine how much better the Universe would have been.

As I said yesterday, Dave needs to lighten up, get a life, get laid, find a hobby, whatever. Maybe he does need to stop blogging for a while. I took 9 days off last fall and rethought everything in my work life, leading to firing myself from Corante.

But I am amazed that this continues to be top-of-mind news, especially because he hasn't stopped blogging, he only said that maybe he would, maybe at the end of the year. We might all be dead of avian flu by then, or living in a dictatorship, or counting the dead from a nuclear war in West Asia. Let's get on with it people.
