So along with problogging we have protweeting–and have probably had it all along. Since I’m not on Twitter (at the moment), I’ve been spared.

I should note that, in a comment on a blog post lamenting the death of Wave, a commenter–who’s sorry to see Wave go–said it was solving problems we didn’t know we had. I’m deeply suspicious of “problems we didn’t know we had” as anything other than the basis for thousands of commercial products and billions of dollars in advertising to convince us of these heretofore-unknown “problems.”

It’s the 3rd paragraph of his response.

But I have too much free time.

For me, it is more about the process than the result. Which facts or quotes that were considered but didn’t get included…. yeah.
