That's just crazy talk Larry
You're a part of the tech blogosphere inner-circle. As a requirement of that membership you're supposed to bash all things Microsoft and blindly promote all things Web 2.0, regardless of facts.

I can't handle the culture shock of an opinion that might differ from the usual Techmeme-sanctioned perspective on the world. wink
