‘click whoring’ is ok if it's in a blog
the infoweek iPhone sdk sham is continuing, started by Alexander Wolfe at infoweek, who i wont link to. see other post here, now with response from infoweek posted in the comments of the original write up i linked to ( original here and follow up here, both on speirs.org)
choice quote:
nor do we consider it ‘click whoring’ to write content that gets people riled up–that is the beauty of blogging
remember kids: you can say whatever you want about anything, as long as it's in a blog and generates clicks. if it's not a blog, then you're a nasty click-whore!
which reminds me: sex and violence is ok for TV, as long as they don't use any naughty words!
Fraser makes a great point in the second to last paragraph: why would i get my information from someone who admittedly has not downloaded the sdk, when i got get it from someone who has, better yet someone like Craig Hockenberry who actually has experience working on the iphone?
