sorry, but there is no such thing as bad-timing, only bad-leadership. And digg becoming "out of control" was the result of bad leadership.
Frankly, if I had to evaluate Kevin as a leader, I would give a big thumbs down. There is no doubt he has enormous abilities as a visionary.
But, Visionary != Execution.
- ctingom 16y agoMan, that earthquake in Japan was sure bad leadership.
- Stormbringer 16y agoI'm sorry, but using an ongoing tragedy with thousands of dead people as a way of 'scoring points' in some little battle of the debating geeks strikes me as at best enormously insensitive and in bad taste.
- jeremymims 16y agoSorry, Digg executed their way to a top 100 website. Right now it's number 111 in Quantcast. How do you define success?
- blantonl 16y agoI define success as continued successful execution. Retaking the position of CEO, losing almost half of your traffic after spearheading a new release of the site, and then resigning and taking off for your new adventure hardly seems like a case of continued successful execution by a, well, successful CEO. So far, I would tell you that Digg was flown straight into the ground.
