The Doctor is...

Jeezum Crow, does Doc Searls do anything but travel, break Powerbooks, make up stupid puns utilizing "blog," ask people to do his Google searches for him, and shit his pants over where his next WiFi is coming from? I mean, fuck, here you have a guy who is ostensibly a senior editor at Linux Journal, who as far as I can tell, doesn't even use the damn OS, ever, writes articles on Mac OS X for LJ, is still fucking dining out on the Cluetrain Manifesto. I mean, what exactly does this guy do? Genug, kitty.

Update: On further reflection, what this suggests to me is that the reason the BigBlogs complain about the BigPubs is that they're not the BigPubs. If this guy has no real connection or qualification for being a senior editor of Linux Journal, how did he get the job? Answer: it's an inside job, boys. There is cronyism, handholding, and an old boys' club in the Valley, kids, and if you don't believe it, you're nuts. That sort of thing is rampant in the Eastern media, too, of course, but at least they attempt to maintain some semblance of objectivity. These guys scream about the corruption of the press while never disclosing any of their friendships or sweetheart deals. What disclaimer? Everybody knows who my friends are...

Thank you. Finally, someone who sees Doc's blog the way I do.
