Dvorak: ‘I Would Write It in Kind of a Weaselly Way’

Dave Winer:

I was talking with [John C.] Dvorak at the Vloggercon party this evening, and he started telling a story about how he deliberately pisses Mac users off to get flow for his stories, and I said, hold a minute, I want to record this, and shit if he didn’t stop and repeat it for me and my video camera.

(The video is about 20 MB; give it a chance to load. Update: Not surprisingly, the traffic was killing Winer’s server; it’s now available via BitTorrent. It’s also on YouTube, for those of you who don’t want to bother with the torrent.)

I wrote about this three years ago, but it’s weird to hear Dvorak flat-out brag about it.
