The Katzdot Effect
I came across this "Deconstruction of Jon Katz" by Wood last night and had a great chuckle. It's really worth a read, as I'd sort of forgotten about that guy, and it made me remember that Katz's articles were the reason I looked at the filtering options for my slashdot account.
Some choice quotes:
Criticising Jon Katz for using the login JonKatz on a site where Anonymous Coward is the lowest of the low is an unnecessarily cheap shot; I cannot fault Katz for identifying himself as himself - it's fair warning, after all - but only for _being_ himself and telling us about it in such detail.
And...
...while columnists are increasingly commonplace. Heck, I seem to be turning into one myself, and even Stallman's thoughts litter usenet like unexploded mortar shells, demanding corralling into a column to provide a counterbalance to whatever Sheriff-Ed material Raymond is churning out in LinuxWorld this week.
It's just beautiful.
