In honor of Jeff Jarvis

The infallible TV critic, Jeff Jarvis, said the following to me today on Twitter: "You were better at blogging." So what follows is everything I've said about Jeff on Twitter, reposted here on my much better blog. This one's for you, man. I mean it.

@jeffjarvis left a chapter out of his book. http://bit.ly/s0jy

@JeffJarvis asks us to name "dead" newspaper jobs. Apparently, because that would be fun?

@JeffJarvis' new book, WWGD, is reviewed on Amazon by a user who praises its "free is a business model" philosophy. The book costs $17.81.

@JeffJarvis got booted from a meeting and calls it "aggravating." He's aggravated 91 percent of each day, so it's unclear where this ranks.

@JeffJarvis was kicked out of a meeting today. Everyone applauded. But Jarvis says that's just because he's so funny. http://bit.ly/15p5U

If I declare now that I take cash from Bill Gates and then write a book with a title comparing him to Jesus, can I still be credible, too?

@metaprinter notes WWGD author @jeffjarvis takes cash from Google via adsense. In his defense, Jarvis says he's been doing that "for years."

@jeffjarvis Also when Giago sold Indian Country Today, the U.S. captured Saddam Hussein. Now he's dead. So let that be a lesson.

@jeffjarvis Giago says "when I sold Indian Country Today ... it had a weekly circ. of 24,000. It is now on the Internet" and has 7,000 ...

@jeffjarvis How ironic that Jarvis says we can all "steal away" from his forthcoming powerpoint and eventual book, "What Would Google Do."

Are folks like @jeffjarvis seriously arguing that Boston.com links repeatedly to WickedLocal.com as an act of kindness?

19 days ago
@jeffjarvis "put forward" his "standard" for the legality of linking: "Relevance." That's what I always tell cops, all laws are relative.

20 days ago
@jeffjarvis When Gatehouse wins its lawsuit, will you scrap that whole book you're writing about how linking will save society? Please.


Feel free to follow me on Twitter. And let Jeff know you're a big fan.
