Boing Boing functions as a proxy for the entire aesthetic of the Web. It's a deliberately eclectic mix of tech commentary, sci-fiction nerd-outs, fringe culture, gadget porn and serious news items. It is, according to its own description, a "directory of wonderful things." The four editors and writers behind Boing Boing will fiercely dispute this, but the site's dirty secret is that it's about as mainstream as it gets — for the mainstream of the Web, that is. If you want to understand what online culture is all about, stop by Boing Boing.
