A bunch of suits sit around a boardroom table, asking what they can do to attract young people to their site. Grapevine says blogs are hot! No idea what one is, but they’ll build one anyway. A swirling splash page, insipid, faked daily entries, each one locked in a tiny Flash text box dwarfed by extraneous gew gaws. Oh, and be sure we make the site go ‘Ding!’ each time user navigates between entries.
Juicy Fruit has ensured that the weblog as a form has officially jumped the shark.

Or am I just missing it?
Hey, you’re right – they’ve taken it down already. Guess they know sober criticism when they hear it!
