Can I get a drama filter?

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Who else doesn’t care about the drama going on at rocketboom? I’m sick of hearing about it. I don’t want to read a post from every single blogger out there about this, because you all are writing the same thing.

This topic creates no value for me and in fact makes my time less valuable with the more instancesI read about it. I wanted to write about this when Scoble left Microsoft and everyone couldn’t wait to regurgitate what they had read somewhere else on their blog. The New York Times is calling it a CyberSpace Soap Opera. I hate soap operas.

Where’s the RSS reader that cuts out this garbage? Or maybe bloggers should take initiative and stop writing the same thing as someone else when these wonderful drama storms hit. The ‘A-Listers‘ just love spreading garbage news that clogs the memetrackers and blog search engines.

I don’t usually rant like that, but someone had to say it. Can we go back to thoughtful discussion?

Well said. I'd have to agree, dialing down the drama would be a good thing across the board, web, politics, sports, etc. I suppose it's news the first time but then everyone starts to look a little silly from where I sit.

Usually the best time to write about the drama, if ever, is two weeks later when perspective can open up some. That or do what you did, point out it's all a little absurd.

Can I get a drama filter?
