Why are they doing this? Are there any good resources out there on the split with WSJ?
Eventually they collectively realize that nothing is going to change and they could run a much better site without their parent corporation, and it goes from there.
Of course, this is complete speculation based on zero actual evidence. But it would hardly surprise me if the WSJ and AOL had a reluctance to be proactive in common.
I predict that the WSJ will waste almost all of the value built up by allthingsd.
I'm actually excited to see where the WSJ tech section goes.
nice try, though.
