I weblog non sono la prima comunità virtuale su Internet. Ci sono i forum, c'è USENET, ci sono i posti dove si chatta, ci sono persino giochi di ruolo multigiocatori e massivamente multigiocatori. Ognuno ha la sua variante, nel tempo li ho frequentati tutti (esclusi i giochi di ruolo che richiedono una quantità di tempo mostruosa) più che altro come osservatore ozioso e fulmineamente annoiato.

 Eppure sono già quasi dieci mesi che ho un weblog, e posto quasi tutti i giorni. Riflettevo su queste cose osservando l'entusiasmo di 3G, che pure non è un ragazzino ;)  e le discussioni fin troppo intelligenti di Gino Roncaglia, Paolo Valdemarin, Cesare Lamanna e altri. 

Oggi arriva la newsletter di  Joel Spolsky, che fa il programmatore ma che scrive meglio del 90% degli scrittori. Per parlare del forum che ha progettato sul suo sito come al solito la prende piacevolmente alla larga e tira in ballo un sociologo che con una certa dose di Alberonite (cioè teorizzando l'ovvio) ha sottolineato l'importanza del terzo posto.

Il terzo posto (dopo casa e lavoro) è quello dove si va e si cazzeggia tra amici. E' importante avere abbondanza di terzi posti per la propria sanità mentale e per evitare di finire rincoglioniti con il telecomando in mano. E' la voglia di terzo posto che ci fa amare telefilm insulsi:

Make a coffee shop without very many chairs, as Starbucks does, and people will carry their coffee back to their lonely rooms, instead of staying around and socializing like they do in the fantasy TV coffeehouse of "Friends," a program we watch because an ersatz third place is less painful than none at all.

E' la mancanza di un terzo posto che spinge i giovani programmatori americani a stordirsi di lavoro:

People graduate from college, move across country to a new place where they don't know anyone, and end up working 12 hour days basically out of loneliness.

Joel poi passa ad analizzare perché le varie comunità virtuali non funzionano bene come terzo posto e come la progettazione del software può fare molto per migliorare o peggiorare la terzopostità di una comunità virtuale. Poi finalmente comincia a parlare del suo software ma qui la cosa si fa per me (per noi) meno interessante, anche se sempre godibilissima (lui è un grande).

Ecco, se devo dire qual'è il motivo per cui la comunità blog non mi annoia, è che è un buon terzo posto virtuale. Certo non è come uno reale, quindi se potete spegnete il pc e andate a bere un bicchiere di quello buono con gli amici, ma non si sa mai, magari due fette di salame e un bicchiere di rosso un giorno ce le facciamo.

Nel frattempo leggetevi Building Communities with Software, di Joel Spolsky.

Riprendo da Tao e segno per futura referenza questa raccolta di testi di Orwell.  Sempre dalla stessa fonte e per lo stesso motivo ecco la lista delle fallacie argomentative (che sembra il campionario di un giornalista corpulento piuttosto famoso - cfr. "ad hominem").
