On Bin Laden Killing Tech Blogging
- aaronbrethorst 15y agoHow can MG Siegler write a blog post about "quick-posted nonsense" with a straight face?
- Gaussian 15y agoBy employing the words "Bin Laden Killing," is the post author guilty of the same SEO play that he espouses to hate? Or is it intentional irony?
- djacobs 15y agoI'd tend to say yes, the post is a little hypocritical. Especially since the content of the post is almost entirely guessable from the title.
- parislemon 15y agoCome on, give me a little more credit than that. Of course it's on purpose.
- knieveltech 15y agoFor better or worse this is just plain old fashioned journalism man. If it bleeds, it ledes.
- sliverstorm 15y agoIs this really new(s)? Old News did the exact same thing in the past when big things happened. It just takes a bit of a different face with blogs.
- krisrak 15y agoi feel your pain MG, @techcrunch has much better content and writers than @mashable, but they get more traffic and probably are making more revenue, its all about getting pageview, and they are good at linkbaiting and gaming SEO. At the end of the day if mashable has a conference I dont think people will pay as much as people would say pay for TCdisrupt, thats were the credibility is.
