Milan Kundera's thoughts on blogging

I wonder what he thinks of this brave new world of everybody talking and nobody listening. I've searched, but haven't been able to find any attributable comments from him on the subject. However, I remember an interview that he did a long while ago (BI - Before Internet) in which he lamented on the plethora of writers and books (even at that time). To paraphrase, he said there are a lot of people who should be reading books instead of writing them. I always recall his aphorism if I ever get momentarily overcome with hubris and think that I should become a writer.
