What is a dickbar?
- tptacek 16y agoBordering on incoherent, though it may just be the hangover keeping me from grokking it. I take it that his point is, Costolo promised we'd be impressed with Twitter advertising, and so far we aren't? I remain at a loss for why we take Winer so seriously, but that too may be a bias, from Maciej writing about his cashew snorfling.
- raganwald 16y agoHis writing _is_ idiosyncratic and very stream-of-consciousness. I posted this particular thing because I was interested in the origin of the dickbar and I found the comparison of twitter advertising to google advertising intelligent. I certainly won't argue with anyone who prefers a different delivery.
- nerd_in_rage 16y agoIt's not you. I read that article 3x and it makes little sense. Twitter. Ugh.
- bigwally 16y agoA dickbar is a site that does not load.
- WordSkill 16y agoA dickbar is pretty much any bar after a certain point in the evening.

Though it is funny that Dave Winer's site went down under the HN load. You'd think he'd have a slashdot-proof (or HN-proof) server by now?
