I think if I were a named party in that article, I'd be mad if it is just flaming, and paranoid if not. Those are hefty charges in today's environment. While blogging per se, as Tim Bray notes, is not dangerous, any free expression has risks particularly when it goes into a megaphone as big as the web. I got a fresh dose of that reality two weeks ago and unpleasantly. Those who want to latch on an misinterpret, then comment on the blog and start even more trouble can do that without much trouble. It makes me reconsider the policy of leaving the comments turned on. If I turn them off, the conversation is one way. If I leave them on, I endure the predations of the not-so-bright and the unscrupulous. Life among the mammals, I guess. len From: Jeff Rafter [mailto:lists@j...] Use: http://rigged-aggregators.blogspot.com/ I don't know what to make of it either. Still somewhat baffled in fact.
