You can't fly too close to the sun on wings of Internet love.
The headline of this story may be a tad harsh, but it popped into my head and seemed to stick. Sorry, Ben Southall.
I don’t know if you caught this story coming out of the weekend, but it seems the British lad who won the “Best Job in the World” is taking his lumps for not blogging enough. And for not blogging about any “normal” stuff we “regular” folk would get to do if we visited the same Australian spots.
Hey, dude’s got stuff he’s told to do.
I’m not saying Edmonton’s own hopeful for this kick-ass job, Linda Hoang, would be blogging up a storm down under. But if you click on the link on her name, you’ll see she runs multiple blogs…
Also, it seems any of those problems involving a “busy schedule” and “wireless connections” have cleared up since the Internet began to turn against young Ben. He’s written a huge blog piece since Sunday.
I sort of feel bad for Ben. He was propelled to the top with love from the Internet, and after three weeks he is feeling its wrath.
This seems like a good reminder to tell you that I love you, Edmonton Internet. Don’t turn on me. Don’t you put that evil on me.
