"With TechCrunch having covered both Paris Hilton and Big Foot this month, the onward march towards page views at all costs has now passed all sanity in a post that is a brilliant example of how saying something so insanely stupid can be good for business." .... Umm... didn't the Inquistr cover both of those as well, and get a ton of hits from BigFoot? - Jason Carreira

Jason, we're not regarded as thebible of web2.0 + that stuff we cover - Duncan Riley

I don't get how that makes it ok for you to do that which you ridicule others for doing... - Jason Carreira

Jason, I've never set myself, or the site up to be the be all and end all of Web 2.0. I set it up to allow for the fun stuff and the variety. It comes down to context and standards. That, and it's a bloody stupid idea proposed anyway, the other stuff aside, and if you follow the links you'll find I'm not alone in thinking that - Duncan Riley
