Duncan Riley is the Jon Katz of the second Bubble.

I'm laughing at the fact that I understand your analogy, but I don't think its true. In my opinion, the punditocracy could use a little bile aimed its way, because it's fat, insiderish, and generally has become what it sought to overthrow. Jon Katz had no bile - he was more of a Steve Gillmor, did too much drugs, irrelevant hippie type.

Of course, I (mostly) love valleywag, too.

I'm glad you understand. I was afraid that I was the only one left from those good old days.
