I've been in too many meetings lately where someone says "This is the year of the Internet for us". Um, hello? Well someone else thinks it is the year of the Internet and has now gobbled up another content network to add to their over 8 million urls. Have you ever clicked on a sponsored link, let alone a sponsored link on a site you don't really want to be on?
What is the over/under on how long it takes 10,000 Reasons Civilization is Doomed to reach 10,000 reasons now that kottke.org is linking to it? One week? A week and a half? How long until they sell a book? One week? How long until they add categories and search so people don't repeat themselves? Or if they don't sell a book how long until they add some Google ads and open up comments so people can argue about whether reasons belong on the list? (As I was posting this kottke.org changed to kitty.orgy and I know I didn't type that- weird)
