This reminds me of the first essay students hand in when they arrive at university. The tutor then proceeds to criticise the hell out of it.

Ironically, this particular post has an onomatopoeic ring to it - the content within the post is about as organised as the content being described.

That said - I'm curious to hear how everyone thinks these Tweet-aggregator startups are going to do. It seems like every other article on my KillerStartups.com RSS feed is in the space.


It definitely does read like something I've written on a standardized test's essay section. In Silicon Valley, the name of the author is sometimes valued more highly than his or her writing ability.


Actually it resembles a drug-addict rambling. Which is probably what it is, figuratively speaking.


Ah, you're right. I keep mixing up the Gillmors - Dan can write reasonably well, Steve seems to be trying to do some kind of reverse-Turing test.
