From the page: "Good reading skills help children become good writers. The reverse is also true. When children learn to write well they internalize the conventions of the English language. Their understanding of English can then be applied to their reading experiences."

I don't agree that it's a matter of opinion. Writing is a tool, it is mecahnical and serves a specific purpose. You may not like the style, but that does not mean it's good or bad.
What good writing depends on is the ability of the writer to communicate a thought. Writing is communication, a way to connect to thoughts. We can deconstruct this further, but I have bread toasting.
"What good writing is depends upon purpose and intended audience."

From the page: "Social News tends to be very transactional in that, you ask and you get something. You submit a story, you get people to "vote" (Digg, Mixx, Sphinn or Kirtsy "it up"), and then what? What's the gain? What's the return? Where's the building of relationships or trust? What comes next?"
