Improving The Quality Of Life For Bloggers?

by mark on August 6th, 2007

You have simply got to be kidding!!! Ryan, this is not directed at you personally but - THIS is freaking insane!;

“Krug is voicing a concern with the way the free-market blogging industry has panned out. He wants to see some institutionalized method for improving the quality of life for bloggers.”

Institutionalized??? Are you out of your g-dammed mind???

Working from home on our own schedule. Work today, not tomorrow. Work all day today and take the next week off. Have a choice of whom to work for. Knowing what we’re getting into before we get into it. Individual expression. Get out any time we want to. Opportunity to grow when we want to or not, our choice. Opportunity for part time work, full time pay or pay exceeding anything we could imagine. Move anywhere in the world and work if/when we like. No need to work from the frozen tundra - work comfortably, at the beach if we’d like. FREEDOM!

Respectfully speaking, there are infinite ways that folks can make an income and Blogging is about the cleanest, safest way imaginable. Insurance? Against what? Falling off your desk chair from too many Wild Turkeys?

Gimme a break, puuuuulllllease!!! Krug wants to “suck the soul out of the whole thing” because he is in the habit of leaving destruction in his wake. And that I can verify David, go ahead, tempt me! Your “about” page at Telegraphik is full of half-truths and blatant bs.

Give up FREEDOM for INSTITUTIONALIZED??? Based on? “I don’t like it. It smells funny.” Based on uncorroborated, unsubstantiated, suspicious statements from David Krug? Totally insane…

Update - Well Mr. Krug, no, you don’t deserve a link from me… but I will tell everyone that you removed my comment from your post regarding your response to Jeremy. As usual, your reply is nothing more than air. I’m going to agree with Franky. This is nothing more than an exercise in linkbaiting from you. No substance, lacking intelligent cohesiveness and winding down to sheer nonsense, i.e., normal for David Krug. Must have another “huge new project” in the works again (for the zillionth time). Hello World! When will you all stop giving this person the credence he doesn’t deserve???

Just to add to your David Krug rant while he ran 901am he promised 20 or so free domains to the first people to post a comment or email him. I was the very first and have yet to see the domain in the months upon months that have passed. This was not a single domain but a domain “for life”. How nice it was of him to ignore my IMs, emails, and comments as well as those of the other 19 winners who he made false promises to.

Thanks Kris - more evidence of the lack of credibility this person has earned and earned well!

Ya’ know… back in ‘46 I mailed every known citizen of the United States to let them know I owned the Brooklyn Bridge and they needed to stay off of it until I increased the toll. Spent a bundle on postage too yet not one single person got back to me and they’re still driving on MY DAMN BRIDGE!!!

The only email I received was to say you would be purchasing the domains in a batch and would them let me know and that is the last I heard of it. Even if I received an email it doesn’t account for the unanswered comments, IM messages, etc. Hell we’re connected on Linked In so there are more than enough ways I have tried to get in touch but you emailed me once…I think I fulfilled my obligation of trying to get in touch but you did not.

Guess what David… in response to your stupid email - I could care less.

Do you think your actions have some kind of power over me? Did you think you’d shame me or hurt me or make me sad? Nothing of the sort, sorry fool.

Your statements to me, in private, were extremely ignorant. You know nothing. Nothing!!!

Plus, whatever you think you’ve done to me - changes not the first thing about you! Go ahead, live with yourself and your lies David. The inevitable day will come when you implode and I’ll have nothing to do with it.

Good riddance.
