Help me push this post up Techmeme

Started by mathewi · 1 year ago

    Yup, right on Mr. Matt. I also read Fred's post today as a kind of "there goes my neighborhood" rather than a legit critique of what techmeme has become - which is to me an increasingly rich place to find good stories. I'm kind of tired of the old blog guard anyway - I think a lot of them have run out of stuff to say.
