    watch the rest all fall: Jeff Berman is first. When Miller referenced inspirational leader he was directing that at him. If he tells the McDonald's special sauce song contest story one more time he should be banned from every industry conference. Dani Dudeck should pack up her oversized office and look forward to never working in this industry again, she is the most hated person in PR. I could go right down the list but I don't want to scoop anyone...

    Obviously it's possible, but is it common for execs to live in the Bay Area and commute to L.A.?

    @nirreskeya:


    The SF office is pretty small. The job of the execs would still be in the main office in LA where the majority of the company (~80%) is at.


    But there are actually a number of execs at MySpace who live in SF or Seattle and commute to LA every week. So to answer your question, no it's not uncommon.

    What the hell is going on this post? Does anyone know? Is DeWolfe out, or in? Is Miller pushing him out, or is Murdoch, or is Wendy Deng? Is there any thread of coherent sense to be had anywhere?

    I am surprised that Gawker has not covered the Julia Angwin book Stealing MySpace to it's full extent. The review in NYT Book Review has provided more tantalizing details than Valleywag. I was amused by this nugget of trivia. "For instance: MS did not intend to let users strew hearts, glitter and smiley faces all over its home pages. It's just that when the Web site switched from one programming language to another, shoddy engineering created a huge loophole allowing users to upload their own computer code." Oh, Happy accidents!

    This is too easy. It's gonna be placed under the guardianship of Faux Noise, with maybe Coultergeist as Friend in Need. To advertisers they can present millions of sheep who will buy anything, the dream demographic.

    Wait....NewsCorp has an internet strategy? So that would imply that trailer parks and white-supremecist compounds have internet access and that the residents of those places know how to a. use a computer and b. access the internet. Hmmm.......I'm not buying it.

    Man reads story, posts cliched comment. Another one reads comment, posts cliched critical response. Third party comments on previous two comments.


    ...And the internet circle-jerk continues.

    @AmberVetus: Fair enough.


    However, I felt--in that brief moment of knee-jerk type-and-clickery--that I could not allow robmorsexxx's imply that computer literacy require residence in a house without wheels or that the internet is a sanctuary of non-bigotry, to go unchallenged.
