Content filters are the new networks

Slate's got a new article rounding up what blogs are talking about every day. That's one thing I expect to see more of shortly. With the explosion of material from nearly every quarter showing up in the blogosphere, there's definitely a need for filters of one kind or another. Blogrings based on location are another example.

It reminds me of stuff I read about independent film in the last five years. Now that the price of entry is so low for decent digital video equipment, the number of people making their own low- or no-budget movies and shorts means it's that much more difficult to find the good stuff. Sites like Triggerstreet.com and Heavy.com jumped in to take that role.

Anyway, one of the things Slate linked to as a common topic yesterday is homosexual duck necrophilia. First, yuck. But I just had to put up the above picture. I don't know if it adds anything to the conversation, but there it is. Discuss.
