I think what is most contemporary about this piece is Brunskill's own assumption regarding "the blogger’s fear of silence or the desperate modern need to connect and communicate."
The last time I checked checked -- which was quite some time ago -- there were some 40 million column for the the same reason.blogs. Do either Bill Vallicella or Nige -- mon semblable, mon frère -- give any indication that they fear silence? Some of us blog for the same reason Montaigne wrote essays. I even write a column for that reason.
