That pillar of traditional print media, the Encyclopedia Britannica, has entered the 21st century.
Yes, the multi-volume source you turned to for every junior high science report you ever wrote now has a blog.
And it’s actually a pretty entertaining one, filled with well-written, thought-provoking and discussing-inducing coverage on everything from politics to the environment to the evolution of the English language. It’s an eclectic mix, and a compelling one.
Food for thought: If even the Encyclopedia Britannica has a blog, how much longer can we go on being considered “alternative” or “new” media? Put in other words: Is blogging still cool?
