Dave posted a comment in my blog post about Vista being late basically attacking Robert Scoble, and then I found a round up he did of people attacking him that he posted.
Let me be clear. I disagree with some of what Scoble says but I think in general that Robert does great work at a really really tough job. Obviously he works for Microsoft and needs to help promote the company but I think that he does it in a way that is pragmatic and open. He frequently points out when the company is making mistakes.
When he gets feedback about the job he's doing (like the bit I put on my blog) he actually takes the time to respond. Which is pretty amazing when you think about it. Here's this A-list blogger reaching out and trying to engage in a dialog with a sometimes hostile community about what his company is doing.
I say bravo to Robert Scoble. When you're a pioneer you get a lot of arrows in the back. The world needs more people like him, not less.
