what happens to our blogs


i don't mean short term now it's fun n all but how will our blogs be perceived in 200-500 years time i am really sure that what happened in roman times is not what we see in the movies now stories has been passing from generation to another is being distorted changed altered glorified or mystified (too many big words)

i like this image so much it's what our descendants would think of us one day

i hope that our legacy remains and the next generations learns something from it before the internet dies (i don't know is i gonna who knows may b )

"i imagine some day they'd say and they had to type everything that they thought of and they called it blogs it's is still available if you have an old Text Based Browser "

after we had this discussion in office last week, i kept thinking about your question, and amazingly i was arranging my stuff and found the 1st issue of Al-Ahram issued 130 years ago...I felt as if I had a ride in the time machine...I guess their feeling wont differ a lot..that's in case they have time to read it :)

check the picture i posted
ahram is a few people's perception of the events when u read this i am sure you will have their perception and your mind will create it's own distortions and what happens is that u get a slightly different perspective

so as the time span increases like between the wall writings on Egyptian temples and what we think now

we think of these people as legends powerful inhumanly powerful and gr8
right

and opens up imagination possibilities of aliens teachnig them or ... get my point

the question would be will the blogsphere be honest to the later generations or it just would be a more deviation from the truth for the poor coming generations

that is a big not only important question, but philosophical too (if not hypothetical) coz with the increase in the size of blogsphere, the subjective perceptions will increase, which inturn will make it even much more diverse than now.
