Heads or Tails; Yes or No?

I must admit that the question to this blog didn't really have a specific point of direction, but I enjoy ambiguity every once in awhile. In response to the article "Is The Net Good For Writers", I must say that I am kind of riding the fence at this moment in time about the use of the Web and its impact on writing. I like to think that I am decent writer, so I guess this leaves me torn. I feel that everyone should have the chance to write, but I feel that at times the Net takes away from the initial purpose of writing.
In the article, it was really interesting to read what some "authentic" writers had to say about the Web and writing; there were writers on every point of the spectrum. I really enjoyed what writer Jay Kinney had to say; "it's a mixed blessing". I feel that the immediacy of our society has taken away from the true beauty and integrity of writing, but on the other hand I feel that the Net offers everyone a chance to say what they need. Erik Davis was the one who voiced my main concern the best; how will the writing on the Web effect my job and what it is that I want to do? Writing and communication is constantly changing and with that comes the loss of credibility and value for quality writng talent. For someone who loves, I mean lives, to write, this is a hard concept to swallow.
