The worm has turned, let's pull the plug
The worm has turned, let's pull the plug:
"Maybe it's time to admit that the whole Internet thing has been a grand experiment, but an experiment that's failed -- like hydrogen-filled airships, or the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, or Betamax. We'll all find something else to do, and in many cases it will come as a great relief. "
This woman is an idiot. Surely the best thing about the internet is the lack of cencorship of people's views and free and honest reporting?
Oh, and Betamax didn't fail. It is still the best tape format out there and only lost out to VHS due to Sony's massive market flooding of machines as loss-leaders.
Fucking amateur.
Tim puts it much betterer than I ever could here.
