Blog Implosion.

Steve at Now This provides quality commentary on Dave Winer's recent weblog meltdown, which I discovered while trying to access Tomb of Horrors. Since Winer has successfully parlayed his whole self-promoting Father of Weblogs schtick into a cushy Ivy League sinecure, you'd think he at least give all those blogs an early warning before he shut 'em down (or, perhaps, convince fair Harvard to pony up some server space.) Still, acting like a self-interested jerk has been Winer's M.O. for years, so I guess something like this wasn't unexpected. Update: Winer gets worse.
