And Engadget’s Peter Rojas telling Scoble in a comment posted on Scoble’s own blog:
I get it now. Basically you spammed the comments of a bunch of blogs and you’re upset that some sites either deleted what you did or didn’t incorporate your link into a post. Really weak.
Check out Scoble’s post if you can stand the war of words. Actually, important issues have been raised here, but it’s also being marred by almost schoolchildren-type level bickering.
As some blog networks now become more mainstream (heck, some of the people who commented accused Engadget of already acting like the elitist MSM — ouch, hehe), and as more people blog and bloggers kinda have to compete for the same audience, are they now less inclined to link to blogs outside their networks? Will they link to competitors? Are we seeing cliques now as well for bloggers, where people just tend to link to their circle of friends?
Made that Gizmoz talking head of Bush saying how much he loves the Eraserheads, heh. And since WordPress.com doesn’t allow you to embed the Gizmoz code (among other things, sigh), I uploaded the video to YouTube. I used my personal YouTube account, not the hackenslash TV channel for the videos we create for INQUIRER.net, so don’t be surprised to see videos of my daughter Sam, heh.
Gizmoz is pretty cool, huh? Used the text-to-speech option – you could also record your own voice. You can also download the Gizmoz client for your IM or Skype and use the talking heads as your avatars.
The Eraserheads is still the best Filipino band for me. If you’re an Eheads fan, check out the group page I just set up at groovenet.ph/eraserheads
GrooveNet is like Friendster or MySpace but proudly Philippine-made, plus it has a 3D virtual world — the localized version of There.
Wanna add the er, Bush Eheads talking head to your GrooveNet or other social networking site profile, blog or other webpage? Please go to http://www.gizmoz.com/video/412546_bush_and_eraserheads and get the embed code. But as mentioned, some blog hosts don’t allow you to embed the code.
Punta ka sablog na ito. Bibigyan kayo ng updates tungkol sa “Tikman ang Langit: An Anthology on the Eraserheads.” Balik-balikan para malaman kung saan mabibili ang libro pag labas nito. At kung saan gaganapin ang launch.
Oo, libro tungkol sa Eraserheads. Ilang taon na ang nakalilipas pero, pero wala pa ring tatalo sa Eheads.
Sama ka na, pare ko.
(Pagaling ka, Ely. At salamat Raymund, Buddy at Marcus sa mga blurbs ninyo para sa libro.)
