Nick Carr Doesn’t Understand Anything (Weekend Humor)

admin · December 9, 2007 ·

Nick took umbrage at Michael Krigsman post entitled Robert Scoble doesn’t understand enterprise software . He responds with Michael Krigsman doesn’t understand enterprise software. In keeping with the Holiday spirit, I am here to take this to the next logical level. 😉

3 Reasons Nick Carr doesn’t get it when it comes to.. umm.. anything:

  1. The amorality of Web 2.0: He believes that the Web2.0 is amoral. He clearly refuses to acknowledge the genocide in Darfur. What’s next, support for Al Qaeda?
  2. Sharecropping the long tail: In this piece that reflects gross insensitivity to the long history of sharecropping’s association with slavery (see Wikipedia entry), Nick tries to advocate this egregious practice.
  3. The ignorance of crowds: Oh, how easy it is to make fun of the average. Does he not know that 50% of Americans are below average? How can he turn his back on half the nation that has given us so much.

I am here to extend a hand of friendship this Holiday Season to Nick, if he agrees to not blog for the rest of the year. Otherwise, as Fake Steve nicely puts it: Negative people upset me.

Notes:
– Word to the humor challenged: If you can’t get the fact that this is obviously sarcastic take at the trend to grab headline attention by attacking well-known personalities, I feel sorry for you. Also, my Nigerian Uncle left some money for you.
– Note to myself: Stop reading Fake Steve’s blog. He can get away with stuff, you cannot.

humor, irregulars
