This is a very, very entertaining blog - someone pretending to be Steve Jobs (if you don't know him, please format your computer NOW and go play paper Soduko. If you know that he's the big boss of Apple, please read on) and was blogging what would be what Steve would honestly think - cursing at Bill Gates, at Linux and the open-software community, etc.
No impersonating at all: the blog's title ('Fake Steve Jobs'! hereafter referred to as FSJ) and the writing show that it's totally a joke.
Still, it was fun to read - and the mystery was nice. You could still wonder if it wasn't really Steve Jobs pretending not to be himself to write what he really thinks. (am I making any sense?)
Then came along a journalist of the NYTimes, a Brad Stone (mind the initials...) with too much free time on his hands who decided to spoil the fun for everyone and announce who was FSJ.
Boooooooooooooo. Jerk.
The People of the Blogosphere were kinda mad. The 500+ angry messages on the FSJ blog here are proof enough.
And if not proof enough, you also have these angry posts on Brad Stone's blog on the NYT.
Mike Cane awareded B.S. the title of Bastard of the Year. And someone started a "Fake Brad Stone" blog.
I feel almost sorry for the bastard. Well, not really. Though I fail to see why he'd want to do that. I personally don't care who is behind FSJ. But still, I mean, BS, baby, what were thinking???
