Hack the Planet: "I agree with Ev that this site is missing something, but for a different reason: When a company goes out of business, there's the implicit idea that they have failed, that somehow they did something wrong or at the very least not good enough, but when someone decides to abandon their weblog, it shouldn't reflect negatively on them. It's just a change, like buying a new pair of shoes." Right on, Wes.
In all fairness, Davezilla emailed me about my first post and pretty much agrees. As he put it, "It was all a stupid joke that the press latched onto." I know how you feel.
