On annoying net words
This Economist obit of Alfred Chandler (reg. required) led with this enjoyable paragraph:
Today's business leaders are voracious consumers of management advice. They are forever calling in the consultants and surfing the business press for the next big thing. So here is a free tip. Get off the whirligig of management fads. Forget about “long tails” and “wikinomics” for a while and do something old-fashioned. Sit down with a handful of books—admittedly rather fat books—and contemplate the life's work of Alfred Chandler.
And then today a British poll discovers the most irritating Net-related words:
"Blog", "netiquette", "cookie" and "wiki" have been voted among the most irritating words spawned by the Internet, according to the results of a poll published on Thursday.
"Folksonomy" was listed in the number one (most irritating) spot.
