Let us project this trend ahead to a logical, if not inevitable, outcome. The camera hound of the future wears on his forehead a lump a little larger than a walnut. It takes pictures 3 millimeters square, later to be projected or enlarged, which after all involves only a factor of 10 beyond present practice.

Blogs reveal authors ’ personae through posts, but also through other content contained on the blog site. Blogrolls, for example, show intended affiliations and interests. “About” pages can contain small (or large) autobi-ographies

It’s very important not to quit prematurely. The people who get what they’re after are very often the ones who just stick around long enough.

So be ambitious. Keep yourself busy. Think bigger. Expand your audience. Don’t hobble yourself in the name of “keeping it real,” or “not selling out.” Try new things.

If an opportunity comes along that would mean more money, but less of the kind of work you want to do, say No.
