Beware the personality cult. Vision is immensely valuable but mere mortals will never be truly God.
Or something.
[But there is something about Shirky’s theses though…]
[Note to self: to support his Micropatron business model, Jason Kottke needed to create a personality cult. Upon failing to do so (thus failing to “generate sufficient traffic increase”), he has called it quits on his little experiment, deciding to pursue other methods of funding.
