Without a trace of knowing postmodernist irony (or is that Gen X?), the publishers of The Backbench lobbed an email into my inbox advertising their new website, offering “Gen Y opinions on current affairs” .
I was prepared for the worst, but the website is well-presented (with the exception of an article on blogs that unaccountably lacks hyperlinks) and the pieces I sampled seemed thoughtful, well-argued, and entirely free of generation-game cliches. Go and have a look for yourselves.

Actually the article appeared to have quite a few hyperlinks in it. Just not to anything I recognised (apart from Gawker).
I don’t know whether this is coincidence or evidence of the power of this blog – the hyperlinks weren’t there this morning, just plaintext URLs.
I think we all know the answer to that one, John.
Needless to say, it behooves you to only use your powers for good!
