SOMEBODY JUST SENT ME this link to a post by Paul Boutin on the Wired piece he did about InstaPundit. But he’s awfully nice when he writes: “Glenn was great about editing the piece at least five times.”

The reason it took five times was that I’m a boring guy. At least, the original idea was to do a “tick-tock” piece where they tracked what I did for a day. I was dubious, but agreed to write down a day’s worth of doings. When they read it, they said, “you’re right — you are too boring to profile that way. . . .” Well, a collection of time-stamped items reading “Sat at computer. Posted to blog. Drank coffee. Taught a class. Sat at computer. Posted to blog. Drank coffee.” can only be so interesting.

Mmm. Coffee. Somebody asked me what it’s like to be called an “Internet rock star,” too. It’s just like being a real rock star, except for the absence of groupies, limousines, Gulfstream jets, and huge royalty checks. Otherwise, pretty much the same.
