‘It’s a whole new ballgame’: I’m not sure why -- or to what extent -- but Curt Schilling’s now famous on-line chat the other day made a little history. It was exciting to see Schilling setting the record straight directly with fans themselves via the Internet, rather than working through the media. ... Boston Dirt Dogs is mighty proud and has a blow-by-blow account of the Schilling chat. ... FYI: Hub Blog is obviously not an old-media type who dismisses bloggers, but I’m also not a new-blogger type who dismisses the old media. I’ve long thought the two mediums would -- and will -- converge, probably in ways that will frustrate both sides. What’s the fancy word I’m looking for? ... Symbiotic! ... That’s it! ... Still anxiously awaiting that first blogger paycheck from evil media conglomerate Hub Blog Inc.
