This is super-insider-y stuff if you don’t follow a lot of the really dumb crap online that I do, but a) some people do and b) it’s so good that I had to blog it. Gabe Rivera is one of the funniest guys in the Valley, which isn’t saying a lot, but seriously, he’s hilarious. Case in point:

SYNOPSIS: identi.ca, which almost topped Techmeme, should have topped Techmeme, because it’s open source and therefore not just another buggy Twitter clone. This illustrates the problem with Techmeme, which TechJunk will help fix, and site owner Dave Winer should know because he knew 10 years ago what would be true and important today in tech. “Regular people” don’t care about what’s on Techmeme, but do, and should. (That last point was argued by the same person.) Techmeme may or may not be analogous to the Third Reich. Mike Godwin may or may not be Seth Godin.

Dear FriendFeed: Maybe I would use your promising but ultimately underwhelming service if you provided permalinks to comments and nixed the user-hostile grey text on white background.
