New Elitizmr Blog
So, I’ve set up a blog for Elitizmr. I’ll keep this blog updated with information about what’s happening on Elitizmr. At this point, I’m not quite sure what’s going to happen with Elitizmr. We’ll find out in the near future.
I bet you’re wondering what Elitizmr means. Well, I guess it means something like ‘Web 2.0 Elitism’. The name Elitizmr came up when I was chatting with a coworker (who will remain anonymous unless he decides that he doesn’t want to be anonymous and posts a comment here). We were talking about something that I saw that slightly disturbed me. It was a blog post with a photo and the person who posted it had all the names of the people in the photo, except two. I was also noticing that those two people probably aren’t too well known. I thought it was slightly rude to post all the people’s names except two (unless they had specifically requested not to have their names posted). So, to me and my coworker, that seemed like elitism. Dictionary.com says ‘elitism’ means, ‘The belief that certain persons or members of certain classes or groups deserve favored treatment by virtue of their perceived superiority, as in intellect, social status, or financial resources.’ Oh, also, all this removal of the last vowel and replacing ’s’ with ‘z’ is just silly. So, of course, I just had to do it!
