World of Ends Public Draft
Doc Searls sent me the link over to the newest work that he and fellow Cluetrain person David Weinberger haveput together. It's called "World of Ends" although I like the subtitle "What the Internet Is and
How to Stop Mistaking It
for Something Else" better - but that's just me. In any case, some interesting reading, particular if you like/d The Cluetrain Manifesto. Update: 03/08 14:42 GMT by CN : Yeah, this is a dupe of yesterday's story. Everyone point at Hemos and laugh.
Almost a whole day passed before this dupe was posted. Huzzah!
I want to drag this out as long as possible. Bring me my protractor.
Proof that DUPES can still get through will subscribers looking into the mysterious future!

Yesterday's article:

Slashdot has certainly perfected the redundancy part ...
Just reading the topic once over, it looked like it had something to do with George Bush and Iraq. ;) Then I realized the grammar didn't make sense. "World Ends; Public Draft"
Repeal the DMCA!
"In any case, some interesting reading, particular if you like/d The Cluetrain Manifesto."
Sorry, haven't read "The Cluetrain Manifesto" - however I would like to recommend the editors of Slashdot check out a neat website called SLASHDOT - they usually post articles strikingly similar to "World of Ends."
You know you're a geek if you've ever replied to a tagline.
...We can build businesses without having to worry that "Internet, Inc." is going to force us to upgrade, double its price once we have bought in, or get taken over by one of our competitors.
HA! If that's true, then explain what these "Internet, Inc." stock certificates are, that I bought online!
I shall have free internet access FOREVER, here and on my MOON property that I also bought online...
Cover your eyes and click this link!
one end doesn't know what the other end is doing.
The end is near.
I really like the "Repetitive Mistake Syndrome" - I have seen so many cases of that!!!
I wonder if the GNU folks would mind if we just abbriviated that 'RMS'?

My country is going to war in the next couple weeks. Could you refrain from stories including the words 'public draft' for a bit. It's a little unnerving to come across first thing in the morning before I've had a cup of coffee. Thank you.
Can be found here.
Karma: pi (Mostly due to circular reasoning in posts).
Well no, actually, that sounds like computer/communications science. It's the guys who conduct the attack who are doing the rocket science.
.er, hard though. Just stick a Saturn V up its virtual butt and have the internet in "Space. . .Space. . .Spaaaaace. . ."
They guys *under* the falling missles are generally working of perfecting their "Run away, run away" science.
We told you geeks to at least join the track team, but would you listen? Noooooooooo!
Making the internet into rocket science wouldn't be rocke. . .
If you can't find a Saturn V on the surplus shelves I guess you can make do by shoving a D size engine up a Timex-Sinclair's butt, although I've discoverd imperically that it's somewhat lacking in stability.
Hide the dog well.
Did I mention I havn't had my coffee yet this morning? That may effect the lucidity of the above, but I'm counting on that fact that you haven't had yours either and won't notice.
I'll go make some now. It's not rocket science.
Oh, wait. Yes it is.

Pretending you misread "World of Ends" as "World Ends" (bonus point for linking it with Bush/RIAA/Microsoft/{insert favorite evil agency here})
