Wasn't forbes respectable at some point? Is this how far things have fallen?
> Guy Kawasaki released a 208 page book about it. You should be able to build your own Honda Accord in 196 pages.

There's not a single valid point in the entire article, the most laughable part is the 'open source the code!' argument.
- tshepang 12y agoThat was just a joke, right? Not a bad one I have to say.
- dmoy 12y agoYea, I don't really agree with the trend of big, reputable news places having such an increasing number of random blog posters. There's a big difference between Forbes proper and Forbes random-poorly-researched-blog-article (same goes for other places as well). Then again you can also raise the same question when the more traditional columnists start spewing random ideas about fields in which they have no expertise...

- untog 12y agoForbes has basically sold out all of their integrity by allowing pretty much anyone to write a post on their site. It's a shame, really.
