Just a note to give an "amen" to Shelley's statement, "Doc is also willing to link to those who criticize him, and patiently respond to same."
Doc has patiently responded to my comments criticizing him, and nobody could be more z-list than I. I don't even have a blog, just enjoy surfing the net for a fresher look at the world than I can get from other media. I am not a techie so I skip over the majority of Doc's and other A-listers' discussions but find the photos, personal anecdotes, and other topics of general interest to be worth my time (which admittedly is cheap, since I'm retired). Perhaps I'm a bit star-struck but I greatly enjoy being able to respond to bloggers like him and Joho http://www.hyperorg.com/blogger/ and have them reply to me.
If they and other "gatekeepers" occasionally get carried away with their own importance, perhaps they have earned that right by providing consistently significant content and links. But I personally have not found these two to be guilty of that -- quite the opposite.
