Widen the streets, I'm back, bitches!
Just for today and tomorrow, you get one more taste of the salty juice of Nick Douglas, former Valleywag editor. Publisher Nick Denton is done editing the site, except to insert one-line items gushing about his new iPhone, and I assume new editor Owen Thomas wanted a long Independence Day break. (As if gays love America!) Today's agenda (Facebook bitching! Neologisms!) is below. Oh, also: I'm drinking a six-pack of Pabst today.
Coming up today:
- The opposite of "bury it on a Friday"
- Facebook is the new spam
- Two web app reviews you won't find on TechCrunch
- Another reason PodTech is scum
- Two men who want to run San Francisco
- Ten Things I Hate About Denton
- Robert Scoble finally gets some press
- Maybe some video of me, drunk
I believe Kanye put it best:
Bow in the presence of greatness Cause right now thou has forsaken us You should be honored by my lateness That I would even show up to this fake shit So go ahead go nuts go ape shit
Apropos of nothing, that song's going to be this year's summer hit, and some of you losers need culture like my grandma needs a rubdown. So here's a gratuitous music video:
