[syndicate] Trans.: [thingist] IAM SPEAKER SERIES: Sarah Robbins, March 12, 2007

[clemos]

I begin to be rather happy that these shits like second life, myspace,
... exist:
all mediocrity agents on the web rush over there like sheeps
they willingly lock themselves in those web goulags to stay among
"friends" (sic!) and collectively maintain and even improve their own
mediocrity
let's hope that they'll have less and less time to annoy us by
searching for friends on mailing lists, posting their crappy thoughts
on blogs, ...

leave them alone, and pray that they will do the same.
