John Dvorak admits to Baiting Mac Users for hits - 06-10-2006, 04:08 PM


Blog pioneer Dave Winer managed to get John Dvorak to admit on camera how he baits the Mac community to increase traffic on his website.

I was talking with Dvorak at the Vloggercon party this evening, and he started telling a story about how he deliberately pisses Mac users off to get flow for his stories, and I said, hold a minute, I want to record this, and shit if he didn't stop and repeat it for me and my video camera. I guess now I'm an official video blogger.

heh I saw it on digg a day or so ago but didn't get there in time to see the video, thanks

Anyway, I kind of thought there was something fishy going on with him when he kept on saying all this outragous stuff...
