@Geordie – kind of explains why he needed to build a site to make friends, doesn’t it.

I did actually watch both parts, and man does that guy ever seem to be a black hole of personal charisma and magnetism. I wonder if he’s just nervous or if there’s a pulse in there somewhere…

Thanks for the link to the CBS site. I got too caught up in football and missed 60 minutes.

I agree his statement isn’t quite as self-delusional as TechCrunch makes it out to be and I can see where the idea behind Beacon might be seen as less commercial than banner ads.

On the other hand a banner ad is easy to ignore. We all learned to ignore them pretty fast. Having an ad come across as a endorsement by a friend is still wrong and commercializes something that wasn’t necessarily meant to be commercialized.

I have to say that I’m guilty as well when it comes to certain news stories. I often end up reading a lot of blog posts providing personal opinions regarding it before I get around to actually reading the story
