Before the "blogs" era, we were all slaves of our webmasters. Unless you were yourself one, most people, companies and organizations who wanted to have an online presence called a Web site, needed sooner or later someone technically skilled to take care of it for hir (him+her).This "webmastering" is the job I'd like to work myself (and a few others) out of.
I apologize for linking to such an irritating site (there appear to be timed pop-ups advertising the latest publication or e-mail newsletter or conference by the site author), but the article caught my interest (while searching for something else, of course).
Worth following: this article contains a link to an article on blogging at Seb's Open Research. I strongly recommend the history.
