Arrogance, Laziness or Genius
Scoble drops email – chooses to twitter and facebook his communication with the world. I’m so tired of his schtick. Like seeing his previously private conversations are something people need or want. He constantly wraps this decision in the idea of scale – scalable communication. This is as equally annoying as public pronouncements of email bankruptcy, to me bankruptcy by an individual is a shameful last resort when they have become overwhelmed. Scoble shouldn’t be so proud to announce his email bankruptcy, he’s dropping accountability in favor of convenience and we’re all going to be subjected to even more self-egrandizing monologues from this character. What does he do all day anyway? He’s not the harbinger of email’s demise, he’s just a noisy blogger who is too lazy to solve the real communication problem in favor of buzz-words and fads.
