I’m a semi-regular listener to This Week in Tech on TWiT, and John C. Dvorak brought up an interesting point:
Dvorak is a troll, and has constantly been wrong about tech, just as Winer has. That has nothing to do with age. It has to do with the fact that people that listen to Dvorak are wasting their time.
Dismissing the older white guys because they’re older white guys seems…um…well, I can’t think of anything nice to say about that.
People dismiss Winer because of his history. A history of being a bully, of sexism, of pushing his own formats over all others. It has very little to do with age. He wants you to believe that. You are wrong.
Ever use RSS?
You realize Winer didn’t invent RSS right? Winer is RSS’s biggest ambassador, but not the inventor. So I’m not sure what you hope to prove with that statement.
