On: Tim Armstrong: We Got TechCrunch

[vaksel]

it's kinda funny....Techcrunch makes it a point that they don't accept press releases...and they announce their acquisition with a press release.

I read it more as Tim saying "this is now our company and I'm letting you know", so any previous rules are already out the window ;-)

He doesn't even mark up the press release with semantics. Not even header tags for subheadings. What is this?

[lachyg → djacobs]

I call it a 'rushed post'.

Arrington handed Armstrong his laptop on stage and had Tim press the "publish" button. Armstrong didn't write the post, let alone even read it before he hit publish, it seems. I think it was done by Techcrunch. Watch the video and you'll see.
