Wendy Rosendfield usually blogs about theater, but she has a nice little reflection on Twitter vis a vis music journalism. Specifically, how do you review an album in 140 characters or less?
The answer is: you can't. Put a link on that, dummy! The joy of NPR's "Song of the Day," isn't the caption, it's ths song itself -- though I do appreciated their willingness to embrace the 140-word-zeitgeist. For me at least, the digressive Midwestern ramblings (and free MP3s) of Daytrotter will never be replaced by a preference for a digital bleat supplemented with a tiny URL.
