#34: Hi Walt!

by on November 16, 2005

Just when I think my life has gotten surreal enough, Walter S. Mossberg of the Wall Street Journal says I’m one of his favorite tech blogs.

That’s a huge honor. Walt is one of my favorite tech journalists and is one of those guys who can make or break your company just by mentioning them in articles like this.

By the way, I am meeting Matt Mullenweg for lunch. He’s the guy who does the blog software and service here that I run on (the online version of Wordpress). I’m not yet ready to pronounce this ready for the world to use, but it’s getting close and Matt has been doing a great job of fixing bugs and keeping things working. I just wanted to say thanks to the Wordpress community too for putting up with me.

  • Hi, Robert!
  • John
    Congrats! But you were already one of the most famous technology/marketing blogs out there.

    Me me me it's all about me, me me me it's all about me, me me me it's all about me.

    Walt has jumped the shark eons ago, and this is yet more evidence. Tech blog? It's a link blog, with comment quips from a name-drop play-acting techie. :) (Just being honest).

    Why is this a marketing blog any more than, say, Slashdot, which is published by OSTG? Is a Microsoft employee allowed to blog about technology without being branded a shill?

    ... I should just follow my own advice and stop feeding trolls.
  • For some reason I thought you had been invited to appear on the TV show "Lost", but then...
  • J.: technology and marketing have always been mixed.
  • J. Random Poster
    Umm.. This isn't a technology blog. This is a marketing blog.
  • Yippie :)

    Walt rocks!
  • You should buy him lunch for all the public whining you do. ;)
  • Congratulations. I love how such a main stream and popular journalist magazine and site is growing and adapting to the changing conditions that the web brings.
