People just aren`t that interested
When you work in the web, you find it hard to believe that others aren't as excited and interested in the web - and blogs, and podcasting, and video streaming, and CSS, and Firefox, and broadband - as you are.
And it hurts when you find realise that most people just aren't that interested.
From the UK's Guardian (Walking the blog):
A survey of British taxi drivers, pub landlords and hairdressers -- often seen as barometers of popular trends -- found that nearly 90 percent had no idea what a podcast is and more than 70 percent had never heard of blogging.
"When I asked the panel whether people were talking about blogging, they thought I meant dogging," said Sarah Carter, the planning director at ad firm DDB London.
Dogging is the phenomenon of watching couples have sex in semi-secluded places such as out-of-town car parks. News of such events are often spread on Web sites or by using mobile phone text messages.
Oh dear.
