Update: As expected, I FAILED. http://gigaom.com/2008/05/30/yet-another-drama-about-twitter/
This retarded crap has to STOP. It makes Silicon Valley and the people who cover it look like a bunch of little girls obsessing over Lauren Conrad. Or Hannah Montana. Or some other floozy, take your pick.
I like Twitter. I do. I use it all the time. But I swear I get ticked off when I can’t plow through a single frigging major tech news blog without some writer bitching about Twitter. Or praising Twitter. Or shedding tears everyt time the goddamn things goes down. Or comes up. Or stays alive for greater than 6.47 hours. Or talking about its business model, perceived and otherwise.
Bloggers, trust me. We’ve heard it all. We don’t care. Twitter doesn’t care. God doesn’t care. You look like idiots with your shameless self-serving pandering. Just because you don’t get charged printing costs is no reason to abuse the “Publish” button.
Just to get this out of way, the fact that I am doing a Twitter post myself is not lost on me. But I’m not a big name blog site, so I don’t count. So there.
