A little respect, I'm (not) your mama

Más respeto, que soy tu madre is a blogonovela, or blognovel, that ran from 2003-2005. 52 year old Mirta Bertotti, the narrator, (La Mujer Gorda, the Fat woman) tells stories of her daily life, her husband, three teenage and grown kids, and drug addict father in law. It was started as a journal - but then was revealed to be written by Hernán Casciari. It won last years's Best of Blogs for "Best Blog in the World." In its new incarnation it's illustrated by cartoonist Bernardo Erlich - and now it's a book.

I'm trying to figure out when the blog was revealed to be fiction, so I'm looking through other blogs! Ingrid from Jalisco liked the book and merely mentions that the blog was famous and controversial. Jill mentions it, but can't read Spanish well enough to really enjoy it. Wmute, Xela Nitram, feels it's a good example of the new literary genre of blogging. Was "Más respeto" controversial because of the outspoken and outrageous Mirta, writing about menopause, her teenage daughter's questions about cunnilingus? Was it the drugs, or her older son's homosexuality? Or was there controversy about the blog being real vs. fiction? Or about the author's gender? All of these things? I can't tell yet. Worst... I can't read the comments! Through a little googling I found some comments here and a chat transcript here which make it clear that readers wrote to Mirta and that she responded to them. I feel sure that commenters like analisa and fer who complain they were tricked must have created a blogstorm, sometime in 2004, and I'm just missing it.
