Scoble’s Recent Hogwash About The Common Web
- jeffool 15y ago... Um, I don't think he really gives a shit about his Klout score. The point is that new systems are within their closed ecology as the norm. People accept and even expect systems to be closed. And he's against that, and was back when there was actually a fight to be had over it. That was his point. He's saying he thinks things are too far gone for any kind of moral stand to matter. I'd take it even further and say that we'll have to wait for the ebb and flow to work its magic, and only time will solve (change) this.
- crcastle 15y agoAre you confusing Robert Scoble with Michael Arrington? Scoble worked for Microsoft and now works for Rackspace. Arrington worked for Techcrunch before parting ways with parent company AOL. Interestingly, he is more commonly the recipient of the type of scorn embodied in your post. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Scoble http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Scoble http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Arrington http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Arrington

- trotsky 15y agoI got the distinct impression that John really expected he was getting in on the ground floor of some kind of huge trendy movement by being a virtual facebook martyr. When said movement failed to materialize en masse he was left only with a nagging suspicion Pierre, his wife's farmville partner may want to do more than trade pumpkins but John sadly lacks a suitable account to stalk around and check.
