Helping Matthew to Push the Meme

November 19, 2007 |

As part of the Techmeme discussion today (we are having a lot of those lately, don’t we?), Mathew Ingram just tagged me as one of the

new bloggers that are adding new points of view, like Ashkan at WatchMojo and Allen Stern at Centernetworks and ParisLemon and The Last Podcast.

Thanks Mathew :)

And just to toot my own horn a bit more: I think it helps that I try not to blog about something just for the sake of it. If I don’t have a new/different point of view to offer, I usually don’t bother to write about it. I always feel cheated when I click on a story on Techmeme and all if find is a rehash of the news with no commentary whatsoever.

    My feelings exactly Frederic.

    When I read your title, I said “Get a life.”

    When I read your final sentence, I said “Yes, I agree.”

    But the incentives are laid against the maxim “Only speak if it improves the silence.”

    I’m not sure if an algorithm alone would ever be impervious to gaming.
