Seriously? This is front page news?

This just in: Paul Buchheit makes a bathroom visit. More details to come.

As the submitter, I feel an obligation to defend it. I thought the dissection (however brief) of blogging vs. microblogging and what he thinks each is best suited for was interesting. Since he's the founder of a microblogging service, he would be in a position to provide an insightful viewpoint.

He's in a position, but did he provided it? Bush is also in the world leader spot, does his own people aprove what he does?

I know, karma-whoring with my anti-Bush comment, but there's a point here. It's like killing your father and fucking your mother for you Freud folks.

"I've decided to blog differently" is not HN material. It's not even _news_, because he gave very personal reasons for it (and I commented there on his blog).

Don't follow the person, follow the whys.
