As a decontructionist blogology specialist, I have to say that when a user posts a comment scolding a blogger about voicing his opinion, is this not the reader attempting to erect a Domination System and impose it on the blogger?

“Shame on you for being so exhibitionistic that you tell us your opinion, especially since it conflicts with my omniscient view.” is what the flamers are saying.

But who cares? because they are teenage boys with girl names who tell fart jokes and worship Harry Potter.

You are correct about pre-launch publicity: waste of time, betrays a chaos of intracorporate finagling.

Mike - fuck ‘em, you’re right

Dave

Holy cats, people, get ahold of yourselves. As of the time of this post, there are 91 comments on Mike Arrington’s review of Tello yesterday. Most of them are flat-out poison and probably a result of astroturfing, or the practice…

It’s being corrected as I got to Jeff who led me to Doug and I think this is just opening night focus.

That said, what we should focus on is the lousy job the mainstream media did at really telling the story. That’s where the blogs come in. We go deeper and wider. We associate and explain better. If anything the story got undertold by only a few bloggers getting the story, and Om is more than a blogger which is why he gets the nod first.

Alec knew from being involed with Tello from other levels. He was very helpful in demystifying the story for me.

Now that I’ve talked with Doug Renert I’m more clear, and will write on Tello with an informed insight and opinion.

We need more evidence that this actually occurred. The thinking, I mean.

Keep up the good work!
Your honest opinion is what we look for when reading TechCrunch, and that is what makes it such a great blog.

Honest opinions is also what we expect from comments to your posts, not personal attacks.

Too bad you need to grow such a thick skin in this flaming environment, but that is life.

Second, Mike, this blog entry has to have some kind of historical significance. I mean, you had the photographer of the photos writing comments on your blog! That’s frigging amazing. And it’s clear (to me) you also had Tello PR people and/or employees posting anonymous flames. What a colossal PR blunder. Instead of engaging you with positive dialog (which I’m sure would elicit a positive response from you and your readers) they took the low road. They blundered with their first marketing endeavor and now it’s preserved on the Web forever. I’m sure they are incensed because they likely spent months planning it all out and one lone blogger and morons that read his blog, in their mind, tainted it. But it’s bigger than that–it’s not one lone blogger, it’s that they missed the boat on a new way of doing business.

And smart, successful people don’t like to think they’re clueless about anything. Hence, the terribel flames here.

On Techcrunch, A-list blogger Michael Arrington posted a seemingly innocuous commentary on Tello, a high-profile foray into the instant messaging/presence space. While praising the underlying idea, he pointed out a few flaws in the way the launch has b…

People subscribe to you because they need your opinion, which has always been valuable. What u citied in this post is also useful stuff that new companies and even existing one should be mindful about. For a Business, its all about managing relationship with the touchpoints to their products: whether they are the direct consumers, critics, promoters, etc.

But what I also feel, that a Company is not obliged to link back to bloggers. At least in case where they have not requested them to write about their Product/Service. One won’t be expecting a similar kind of reaction from likes of Forbes or eWeek -”…we write about you, so you mention us in your News Page…”.

But then as said, it would be bad relationship management for a Company if they don’t give due credit to their Reviewers.

Michael Arrington is being raked over the coals because he does not like Tello. Well, he does not like the marketing of the service thus far.

And, well, that’s his perogative (he can do what he wants to do)….
