	Jorn Barger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jorn Barger (born 1953 in Yellow Springs, Ohio) is an American blogger, best known today as editor of Robot Wisdom, an influential early weblog.
		Barger is an independent scholar of artificial intelligence (AI) and of James Joyce.
		For a brief period in October 2005, Barger placed the phrase "Judaism worships fraud" atop his weblog; and in December 2005, a poll entitled, "Are You a Holocaust Skeptic?" was initiated.

		Jorn's comments, and his situation, though easy to accept must be ignored until some third person comes in with the same comment.
		Jorn always wanted to be famous, but on his terms and has had a hard time dealing with the note people have taken of him.
		As Barger himself has said, his trade is in "controversial" theories, and we certainly can't just include mention of accusations of antisemitism without indication that they may or may not be spurious.

	Wired News: Jorn Barger Has Left the Building
		Barger, the erudite blogging pioneer known for his influential Robotwisdom weblog, has disappeared repeatedly over the years, each time prompting friends, family and fans to wonder what's happened to him.
		Barger was tracked down on Thursday by a friend and neighbor, William Schlake Colburn, a programmer at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology in Socorro.
		Barger leads a relatively reclusive life, according to a profile in Feed, but his absence online was hard to miss.

		Barger spends his days in the bed, and there -- sitting with the Mac’s keyboard in his lap and its monitor beside him -- he collects: A color-coded map of the world’s language families.
		Barger coined the term himself when he started his Web log in 1997, though he was hardly the first person to have kept one.
		Barger’s passions, like those of Borges, are a librarian’s, concerned with superabundances of word and image and the struggle to wrest sense and order from them.

	On Barger, Books and Blogs (via Jerz's Literacy Weblog)
		Barger incidentally coined the term "weblog" in a 1997 Usenet posting.
		The term was met with some snarky responses about bias and yellow journalism, but Barger replied as if the "yellow" comment is a superficial complaint about his choice of background color.
		Barger's Web Resources FAQ of 1999 is similarly terse and provocative -- which is consistent with Barger's casting of himself as a free-floating radical.

	Jorn Barger found (once again) \| MetaFilter
		Jorn, for those who need reminding, is credited with coining the term "weblog", but for a larger sense of his role on Usenet and the Web over the years, browse the 19,000 newsgroup posts that reference him over the years.
		Maybe when Barger is feeling low, he wishes he could just have a typical middle class life, and trade in all his worthless notoriety for a stable job, wife and two kids.
		Barger should be credited not only for the word "weblog" but also for proving that you didn't have to be a web designer to have a blog, and for pioneering the link-centric blog as a reflection of the personality of the blogger.

	Jorn Barger missing \| MetaFilter
		Jorn's housemate let it known last night that he'd been missing for two whole months, and it appears all of his possessions are still in the house.
		Jorn's mentioned before retreating to a cave, and the desert around Socorro would be a good place to disappear, for good or ill. Those near him are worried, but so far there's no evidence for anything (other than having not accessed any of his accounts in two months).
		I'll leave the rest of the details for Jorn to divulge if he wants to, but those near to him (who had feared the worst) are glad he's OK. Oddly enough, the police, who were happy to tell the story to strangers who called up, never updated the people who reported him missing.

		Last December I mentioned that I was a fan of Robot Wisdom and visited it regularly, but Barger's posts have become so bizarre that I rarely visit the site anymore.
		The Israeli embassy made a minor error in releasing estimates of how many of its citizens were missing or dead in the attack, for example, and Barger has spun that into a huge conspiracy theory in which Israel allegedly knew about or even planned the attack and evacuated its citizens from the building beforehand.
		Barger had always flirted with the line between anti-Zionist and anti-Semitic, and in my opinion completely crossed over that line a few days ago with his, "Leading White-House hawk Wolfowitz is also highest-placed Jew" link.

	Vacuum - Edward Vielmetti in Ann Arbor, Michigan 48104: Jorn Barger, "Robot Wisdom" weblog
		Jorn Barger edits the Robot Wisdom weblog, an eclectic and thoroughly interesting set of links on topics from all over the net.
		Jorn writes: "New weblog from Ed Vielmetti, who's been on the Net forever." (Not quite forever, but more than 100 dog-years, which means I should be able to retire soon right?)
		Jorn is not paired with someone who can take his link-stream and boingboing-ize it (pull out pull quotes, make clever comments, lard up with ads).

	Comments on 1511 \| MetaTalk
		I like Jorn's site, his anti-zionist crusade was somewhat of a distraction and I found most of those links to be ok. Some were just written by people with a very strong bias and I'm sure that turned off a lot of people.
		Skallas, if Jorn had instead said something like "Is Islam simply a religion of lawless racists?" (say, on September 12) I really doubt you would have ever listened to anything he ever said after that.
		Jorn's been at this a long time I'm not exactly a Robot Wisdom expert or everyday reader.

		Filed in: blogging, Wed, Dec 3 2003 19:18 PT Jorn Barger, the creator of Robot Wisdom (and credited with coining the term “weblog”;), has disappeared.
		A friend has put up a Where is Jorn page, which apparently cites a Metafilter comment hinting that Barger simply doesn’t want to be found.
		I was a little worried that he had died or fallen ill, so it’s at least a comfort to hear that he’s alive, though sad to hear that he won’t be one of us anymore.

	The Jorn Barger Affair - Blogebrity
		Back in October 2003, Jorn Barger, the man credited with coining the term "weblog", went missing in the small town of Socorro, New Mexico.
		Then in December, Barger was "found" in the same small town, having relocated to a new home and taken some time off the Usenet, Slashdot, and his blog, without telling anyone.
		A year and a half later, Paul Boutin caught up with Barger, an A-lister, for a piece called Robot Wisdom on the street (Wired Magazine, July 2005).

		Jorn Barger has undertaken to collate submissions into an anonymous-but- more-readable digest, sorting the notes line by line.
		And Jorn has run off on his own, lately, thunderstruck with the theory that the only logical place to pick up the thread is with the earliest, 1923, drafts and workbooks, so he is transcribing thse, painstakingly, and posing many riddles that he uncovers there.
		Jorn writes: >Say Isolde and Tristan are Eve and Adam in prefall paradise peace, and >their kiss is the apple being eaten, because Isolde is his aunt, the >incestuous, forbidden-by-Mark-Yahweh fruit.

	The Sound And Fury
		An explanation for why Robot Wisdom so frequently attacks Israel might be found by a couple of recent links by Barger to bigots Kevin MacDonald and Steven Silbiger, who posit that "Jews collectively and knowingly try to manipulate scientific discourse in an attempt to deny the salience of human genetics" to control Gentile opinions.
		MacDonald, whose books argue that Judaism is a conscious strategy of eugenicism designed to maximize Jewish intelligence, and that anti-Semitism is therefore justified, testified on behalf of Holocaust-denier David Irving's libel trial against Holocaust scholar Deborah Lipstadt.
		This isn't the first time Barger has done something this revealing on Robot Wisdom, and one can see him on Pakistani newsgroups doing the same thing.

		A few weeks later, I find out that Barger has recovered his domain — and Robot Wisdom pops back up online.
