Eric S. Raymond (the S is important, because he's also known as ESR) is working on the Anti-Idiotarian Manifesto. I wanted to link and comment on it sooner, but of course never got around to it. As it stands, it's close to a final version and is looking pretty good. It's a good distillation of what the Blogosphere is all about. As Glenn Reynolds put it at Instapundit, it's not about left or right, but it's Anti-Idiotarian.

Well worth reading, and distributing once it's finalized.
