    In reply to Professional Amateur Hater Andrew Keen Loves Robert Scoble
    I appreciate the coverage of Scoble.


    Not "hard n' deep" enough. The truth is he's quite possibly one of the dumbest people online. Worse yet, he has not one positive aspect about him other than his blatant self-serving tweets. He is a parasite, an asshole.


    Even Mark Zuckerberg has a website. But scoble is fuck.

    Quite frankly, Owen, I'm starting to think the first three words of your headline describe you.

    @OwenKlient: I proudly bought Andrew Keen's book "Cult of the Amateur". Then I started reading valleywag. I felt right at home. Good fit.


    Keen hasn't had much wit a of late. He has good poiints but he's simply not expanding on his old, classic points.


    I want to see Scoble or Zuck get tweaked by Owen and make a comment or have a meltdown. The day that happens there will be a party. Until then let Scoble and Zuck enjoy their selective attention while truth soak in.
