nuzzaci - an online journal

From rob @ podcast 411 podcast on the speculations that Apple was trademarking the generic term podcast.

I wished people out there, when you are writing these blogs, you take some time and do some real journalistic research before you go out and start claiming things that just plain aren’t true.

If you have a bigger audience reading your blog - i agree: you have the same responsibility as any major magazine to make sure what you are claiming is true. The fact that you might manage the art of copy-and-pasting, should never be seen as an advantage - and never to be used as a weapon in a battle of trying to generate content.
