Others may argue that weblogging as a form is an art,
though I won't.  There is a performative, project-like
aspect to weblogging that is a procedural aspect of
art, and I'll claim that as a part of what I do. 
Still, my primary "art" is the image.

No, not necessarily.  It would be, instead, writing
about art.  Not all writing about art, however, is
either journalism or criticism.

I'm not, no, but I believe there are programmers and
others who would argue that.  Anyone?

A straight line leading to, "I don't care where he's
hanging, as long as he's hung somewhere."
