What’s more pathetic — Dave Winer’s New Year’s Day dump on Robert Scoble
You can’t be on Twitter or FriendFeed and not be inundated with comments from and about Scoble. I don’t know how he does it, but it’s really annoying. I find myself relaxing when he takes a break from Twitter, for example to fly from Europe to the US. Finally I can speak without having everything one-upped by Scoble. Whatever it is, he’s done it better, or bigger, or with more important people. It’s irritating because I don’t believe it. I’d really like it if he just turned down the volume. I’d really like it if he just turned down the volume. Or if there were a way to segment the Twittersphere, I’d like to be in the part where Scoble isn’t the main topic of conversation 24-by-7.
or Scoble lapping it up like 2 Girls 1 Cup?
Interesting post and one I’ll consider! I clicked like on it in friendfeed so that all my followers could see it. I also retweeted it. I think I’ll do a video on how to get rid of Robert Scoble out of your view. It’s actually not that hard thanks to the “block” feature in friendfeed.
As James Robertson points out, there’s already a way to “segment the Twittersphere,” and it’s called the Remove button.
Can you imagine being stuck on an elevator with those 2?
Scoble’s the only guy that could give dave a run in the blow-hard department.
What a circlejerk. winer blogs about scoble tweeting. scoble tweets about winer blogging. They should just get a room and take their lover’s tiff private.
“You can’t be on Twitter or FriendFeed and not be inundated with comments from and about Scoble.” – this is completely untrue.
There are thousands of social circles out there on Twitter that aren’t about Scoble or Winer or Steve Job’s health or Half Moon Bay or any of that shit.
I couldn’t imagine following either of those clowns.
“this is completely untrue.”
I agree completely. I can say definitively that my personal twitter account has never seen someone I follow link to, or talk about, either of them.
