Debunking linkfest - Long Tail, Infringements, Comcast, etc.
A collection of proof as to why being right is no match for being popular:
A Critical Reader's Guide to The Long Tail (Tom Slee)
Debunks the "Long Tail". Never confuse someone making a bit of money off you with you making a bit of money.
Adam Curtis: The TV elite has lost the plot | The Register (Andrew Orlowski)
Debunks well, a lot of stuff. Not all of which I agree with, but thought-provoking all the same.
Fringe Infringements (Jon Garfunkel)
Debunks some claims in a legal paper that's making the rounds. The problem is that if you don't come up with some sort of attention-grabber, you won't be heard.
DOCSIS vs. BitTorrent (Richard Bennett)
Debunks some of the technical matter about the Comcast network throttling blogstorm.
Old Media May Not Be Dead, But Traffic From It Is (Jeneane Sessum)
Debunks certain mistaken readership ideas.

Wow-- I'm humbled to have my little article mentioned in the same post as Tom Slee's book.
See? It's the blovosphere, where we're all equal (though some are more equal than others ...)
