Scott Karp, one of the smartest people I know, thinks mobile devices aren’t ready for prime time when it comes to having a meaningful online experience.
Rather than disagree with Scott (whose blog, by the way, is #9 on the “Advertising Age Power 150″of blogs that follow media and marketing) and engage in a meaningful debate, mobile browser developer Russell Beattie immediately attacks Scott personally by calling him a moron and telling him to shut the, well, it goes down-hill from there. Scott may be opinionated and, once in a great while, wrong, but a moron?
I have no idea whether or not Russell’s debate points make sense. I didn’t read past the second sentence. While I don’t know whether or not Russell is a moron, I know for certain his approach is moronic.
I have no idea whether or not Russell’s current project, a mobile browser, is any good. But his approach to evangelizing it sure seems moronic.
