Transcript follows:

John Humphrys: So tell me, Dr. Doctororo, what exactly *is* "blogging"?

Cory: It's a revolution in distributed P2P socio-informatic paradigmistics. It's the death of journalism, and the rebirth of the social contract. Often, when I'm in the bath talking to myself and say something particularly insightful, I wish I had my computer with me so I could enter it in my blog.

JH: I'm afraid you've lost me.

Cory: It's sort of a scrapbook, but on the internet.

JH: I see. Sue Randomwoman, you're someone we hoped would give us some kind of anti-"blogging" perspective.

SR: It's not that I'm anti-blogging per se - in fact I'd never heard of it until just now -but I do wonder if we can trust everything we read on the internet.

Cory: (Rants about Trackback, completely baffling the elderly Radio 4 presenters and audience).
