I built this website. From scratch. Including the servers.
Now see the Wired article on this story: CNN on the Spam Attack? :
A CNN spokeswoman denied the network is behind the posts."CNN has not created such a campaign," she said.
Lewis, an independent web designer, said he also called CNN for comment, but so far hasn't received a reply.
Dave Balter founder of BzzAgents, calls Suw and other Bloggers in general, liars.
Which brings me to point two. Bloggers are destroying their own medium.How? By being more critics and pundits than journalists. The problem is that there are no editors and no fact checkers, so plenty of what you read on blogs is just plain untrue. Check out Suw Charman's Corante post on BzzAgent's Partnership with Creative Commons, where she misstates nearly a dozen facts. And much of what she says is also pulled from other blogs. Guess what? Her informants are providing false information, too. A vicious cycle of lies.
I don't have 'informants', as Dave puts it, and I'd like to see a simple, bulletpoint list of my 12 'misstated facts'. I'm also not sure where this 'vicious cycle of lies' comes from either, so I'd like to see that elaborated.I am not sure why Dave thinks that word of mouth interactions are somehow inherently more truthful than any other sort of interaction, particularly when he's encouraging people to alter the nature of their word of mouth interactions in order to earn rewards. Blogs are a non-ephemeral medium, and bloggers can be held to account in public for what they write. How this makes blogs less truthful than any other medium I am not sure.
Metafilter posting about he films and the comments there.
Right, and teh Intarweb is such a US only phenomenon... ;)
I always wondered what people behind very local virals were thinking. I mean, it's not like as if said viral is only spread within a specific geographical area... *shrug* (Not that this one is such a great example, but it's an interesting thing that.)
Heheheee... I find it hilarius. School Mistakes Huge Burrito for a Weapon:
The burrito was part of Morrissey's extra-credit assignment to create commercial advertising for a product."We had to make up a product and it could have been anything. I made up a restaurant that specialized in oddly large burritos," Morrissey said.
Well hey, now there's an idea. I wonder if he'll get a good grade? He should - I bet none of the other students got their product ideas written up all over the national press. ;)
