It looks like the Wordpress iPhone app works again. Yippie! Full disclosure: I have not read, and have no intention of reading Wired editor Chris Anderson’s new book “Free: The Future of a Radical Price.” This is mainly because I think that Anderson is a deluded cybertopian freetard, and I have no intention of giving money to someone who is exhorting the rest of us to give our work away for free. I’ll read Chris’s tripe the very day he decides to post it online free of charge. Even though I don’t recommend reading Anderson’s babble, I do highly recommend reading Malcom Gladwell’s evisceration of Anderson’s “logic” in his review of the book in The New Yorker. Gladwell does an excellent job of exposing Anderson’s cybertopian fantasy for the garbage that it is. hat tip to Daring Fireball for the link – Update: I just found out that Anderson is releasing a free edition of Free. Fuck it, it’s still tripe. Scoble returns to blogging. Hasn’t found a cure for logorrhea yet. Jesus Cthulhu Christ on a crispy rye cracker!

Seriously, I have 5 fucking plugins installed to pull all that crap off. Web 2.0 my ass. More like Web Me I write this post with a heavy heart. Have any of you ever been in the following situation? You know a guy. He’s a smart guy, and you agree with almost all of his opinions, but he’s done or said something so monumentally annoying that you just have to smack him around a bit for it. Well, I’ve just encountered the intertubes version of that. So, who’s the dipshit in question? I’m glad you asked. It’s “Cousin Avi” of Veritas Nihilum Vincet. Continue reading Today’s Round of Idiocy I’m playing with some new toys to let you nerds spread the gospel of angry drunkeness. Go forth my minions. Jeremy Horowitz is seriously in the running for the Michael Arrington Award for Excellence in Self Indulgent Yellow “Journalism.” If you were looking here while I was updating to WordPress 2.8 and fixing the resulting mess, deal with it. |
