Aaah hasn’t he got a lovely simile?
Note to self: Cut back on the similes or make sure you explain them fully.
What I said was:
“Blogs are *like* having your own newspaper”
“Podcasts are *like* having your own radio station”
“Videoblogs are *like* having your own TV station”
I’m not a newspaper publisher, I don’t make radio, I don’t make TV – they are all similar, but fundamentally different. I use comparison with those things to help you understand what it is that I really do. To try and put it in context for you.
It’s like saying (uh-oh here we go again) “Frogs legs are *like* chicken” – it prepares you a little for what’s coming, but you shouldn’t send them back just because you’d formed a mental picture of a family-size KFC bucket.
It’s *like* having a real job, but I would *like* to get paid for it. . . .
KKF – now that would be interesting 🙂
Of course what I ment to put was KFF – duh!!
yeah, you’re thinking of the Klu Klux Flan 🙂
That’s the ones – the cross burning, white hooded pastry chefs from the deep south.
