There’s always something to howl about.

Don’t miss Part II of Matt Carter’s gripping series on AR vs Move

I didn’t want to let this pass without remarking on it:

The second part of Matt Carter’s gripping series on the abortive takeover of Active Rain by Move, Inc. is up today.

I thought AR’s lawsuit against Move was a joke from the first, and there is nothing in the text to lead me to change my views.

But, man! The drama of it all! Matt Carter has the skeleton of a good book, a cautionary tale about what happens when the wide-eyed world of Web 2.0 comes up against a crew of grizzled Wall Street-trained veterans. Lo-tech don’t mean no-tech.

Here’s the moral, if you’re the skip-ahead kind of reader: Verbal agreements are not worth the paper they’re printed on.

Fascinating reading, both parts. Well worth your time.
