Rough Type: Nicholas Carr's Blog: Complete control

  • This is the perfect subversion of the Clash's subversion, anarchy turned into routine, complete with a score-keeping mechanism. Now when Strummer screams "You're my guitar hero!," it's an act of distancing rather an embrace.
  • What kills me about Twitter is how this perfect consumerist tool, this nifty agent for packaging intimacy as a product, for simplifying self-expression out of existence, can't discover a business model to justify its own existence. Marx must have had something to say about this.

    It’s about a lifetime.
