Which I totally I agree with, but am not going to advocate enforcing. Proper manners also includes not enforcing those same manners upon others. That, again, is the same -- conceptually -- as what is being railed against in the first place. My idea of the "right way" has nothing to do with anyone else's, and I'm in no position -- nor want to be -- to enforce that "right way" on anyone. I don't get it. This sort of has an exclusionary feel to it, IMHO, and I'm not sure what's driving that. If people want to be open, cool, I'm down with that. If not, alright, I'll check it out, and if I don't like what they're about, or how they're doing things, I won't check it out anymore, and I'll blog about that. When did that stop being an option? Why aren't we railing about blogs that post about NYT or CNN articles? We ALL have equal time. At least, I know I do, I have a blog, and access to technorati. Where's the issue, and why are we trying to exclude people from not playing by some set of arbitrary rules? Also, since I want to keep the threadcount down here -- the fact that it wasn't overtly labelled as accepting comments, yeah, that sucks. Don't watch 'em again. Take your notes, blog about what you saw, and that's that. I don't think we should be building filters into our infrastructure to keep people out, especially right now. I don't think programmatically enforcing some kind of clique is the best way to move things forward, but hey.. I could be totally wrong here. -- Brad Webb, Director of Social Media Technology http://vslabs.vsocial.com/ vSocial | Custom One Media, LLC 51 W.
