Hi, I'm in Rolling Stone

I'm quoted in an article by David Kushner-- who writes a regular column about Web stuff-- about futurists blogs in the latest issue of Rolling Stone.

There was a time when getting in Rolling Stone would have been the coolest thing in the Universe, unless I was the last living eyewitness from some horrible accident at a rock concert that killed everyone elise, but spared me.

Actually, even now, it's still pretty damn cool.

Though my wife pointed out that when I really wanted to be in Rolling Stone, they didn't cover blogs. (Ouch. Talk about not wanting to be in a club that would have you as a member.) But even that observation can't dampen my enthusiasm.

Fifteen gajillion more mentions, and I'll have been in as many times as Mick Jagger.

Must be the age difference, Alex. I got excited like that when my name appeared in the New Yorker.

Hey, I'd find that a thrill, too.

Now that I've been in Rolling Stone, that is.
