The article tone portrays the critical thinking of a third grader and the confidence of a used-car salesman. I would say that this blog post was worthless, but that would be giving it too much credit.

But that idea was nothing new and since the beginning of time that is how businesses worked. So now in a bid to become relevant, he keeps writing blog posts but the problem is he isn't really a deep thinker. That's why I think they come off as so shallow.
