Check the first line of your own third paragraph. That said anonymous, your criticism has been taken to heart and The Weekend that Was has been re-edited. Hope it meets with your approval. <BR/><BR/>A blog by definition is an open forum. It enables its contributors to share their views on topics deemed relevant for its intended audience. This is an 'advocacy' piece you're quite right. It was meant to enlighten the younger Jewish community of Canada on ways we can relate to one another more effectively. <BR/><BR/>Clearly this particular post did not appeal to you, yet of all the postings, you felt you had to comment on it. So thanks for stopping by and taking the time to read it. <BR/><BR/>You say you want to get to know the blog's roster of writers yet you anonymously post your comment. We could reciprocate asking you to answer your own questions re paragraph 2.<BR/><BR/>Heebonics is an adjunct brand of The CJN and a work in progress. It varies its voice and is charting a rocky course, to make its mark in today's ever changing media landscape.<BR/><BR/>To reiterate thanks for stopping by we appreciate your take.Kosherspearehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09169414264682156548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4199093213229166970.post-71927391587837942922008-08-28T12:39:00.000-07:002008-08-28T12:39:00.000-07:00The Weekend that WasEven putting aside that the gr...The Weekend that Was<BR/><BR/>Even putting aside that the grammar was sloppy, the tone of this editorial is opinionated without making any real case. It states this magical epiphany that the author felt and expects us to understand without developing the theme enough to explain or convince. As such it doesn't feel like an 'editorial', rather like an 'advocacy' piece.<BR/><BR/>Which brings me to the second point: who is 'Kosherspeare' ? If Heebonics has a roster of writers, I would like to get to know them so I can start understanding their frames of reference and who's opinion I agree with, who's I trust, and who to ignore. <BR/><BR/>Yet when trying to figure this out was frustrating because the whole Heebonics thing is so nebulous. It states that you are part of the CJN yet you carry a hotmail email address (why not an @cjnews.com ?), a google blog, a HEEBONICS ONLINE link which takes you to facebook, a podcast (which is a phenomenal idea and should be expanded to include certain CJN stories). I understand that there are lots of technologies out there and you want to capture facebook users and iPod users and that kind of thing, but the incoherence leads to the third question: WHAT THE HELL IS HEEBONICS??? <BR/><BR/>It might be clear in your mind, but if it were more clear in 'our' minds, then I believe Heebonics would be primed to achieve significantly more popularity.<BR/><BR/>Anyways, that's my take. <BR/><BR/>b'hatzlacha.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4199093213229166970.post-71960780059679957162008-07-31T13:28:00.000-07:002008-07-31T13:28:00.000-07:00Thank you for your comment lottery raffle not ever...Thank you for your comment lottery raffle not everyone is familiar with the concept and so they could stand to be informed.Kosherspearehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09169414264682156548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4199093213229166970.post-22100316176183027112008-07-31T13:23:00.000-07:002008-07-31T13:23:00.000-07:00Concentrate to the things that could give informat...Concentrate to the things that could give information to the people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
