The jewel in the crown of Samizdata.net
A blog for people with a critically rational individualist perspective. We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.

Sipping nectar with the Gods
David Carr (London)  Blogging & Bloggers

I have always regarded blogging as a labour of love. At the very least it is means for people with something to say to the world to get these things off of their chest. But, let's be honest, recognition out in the wider world is sweet and makes the effort all the more worthwhile.

So Natalie Solent can justly feel as pleased as punch that she can count the venerable Mark Steyn among her fans:

As to sites I like, a lot of them are the obvious ones, like National Review, but if I had to single out a non-big-media site, I'd put in a word for Natalie Solent, who writes from somewhere in England and has a way of looking at subjects from odd angles with interesting historical allusions.

Muchos kudos to our Natalie.

In email Natalie told me she was surprised that Mark was a fan of hers. I could have swore he brought her up before as a blogger/commentator he liked...I just wish I could remember where...
