Techcrunch seems to be falling in-line with old media tactics: Politicizing topics to get executive-insider favors. They have become the Rupert Murdoch of tech blogs.
For example, check out this ridiculous, “anonymous” article at Techcrunch.
A clear example of an unworthy competitor crying for regulation of another competitor, this article falls flat for many reasons. There is no discussion of the economic consequences of such proposed legislation; the author is anonymous, preventing a public exchange or debate; Techcrunch allows this anonymous editorial, but the editors offer no opinion of their own. Indeed, I have even speculated that the anonymous author was one of the editor’s themselves!
I’ll leave it to this video to give the generic argument of why this article is ridiculous, and if the so-called anonymous author ever goes public, or the Techcrunch editors admit their bias and/or outright deceit, I’d consider arguing this in more detail.
An excellent mashup!

My Nephew Carter won some sort of modelling contest. I agree, he is cute, but I wonder how much mom’s popularity had to do with it?

A couple weeks ago, I launched a service called MyDashboard.Me. At first, it seems like just another Yet Another Social Aggregator, but I believe I have some compelling, powerful features coming that will offer a competitive edge over other social aggregators… In fact, I was hesitant to release it in an early phase because I was afraid of it getting lost in the noise. However, I actually am using it, and I like to follow the tenet of open-source : Release early, release often. One catch however… It’s not open-source, but that may change.
Currently, it supports simple feed aggregation of Flickr, Last.FM, Twitter, Digg, and RSS Feeds. It’s very basic ATM, but it works, it’s extremely stable, so if you want an easy dashboard of what your friends are up to, feel free to try it out.
Stay tuned for those features that I think could become a FriendFeed killer
