12 January 2003Jumping the snarkA quick run through the last thousand entries or so reveals that I toss off the term "snarky" or some variation thereof with the same sort of heedless elan as a four-year-old who's just learned a cuss word. What, in fact, constitutes snarkiness? Here's my take: If you blog about Pete Townshend's interest in child porn, that in itself isn't snarky. If you title that blog entry something like "The Kids Are Alright", that's snarky. |
