New Perspective on the SNW Generation

For those in the business who may be tracking on this blog, I highly recommend this article in New York Magazine by Emily Nussbaum. One of the people who've given up what most of us would consider way too much information had this to say:

"You’ve got to be careful what you say—but once you say it, you’ve got to stand by it. And the only way to repair it is to continue to talk, to explain myself, to see it through. If I shut down, I’m at the mercy of what other people say. "

Nussbaum has captured the perspective of the generation that posts. It is clear. It is something we must understand. Here's the link:

It's also a lead jump off the Arts and Letters Daily for today.
