Yahoo News wouldn’t normally care whether its brand name was mixed in with this Twitter user’s other tweets.
Branded Cursing
Yet, I am pretty sure they aren’t going to be publishing news on their new blog network featuring stories laced with curse words any time soon.
Even I, a lowly rather unimaginative blogger can crank out Tweets and Blog posts free of cuss words.
You would think a Harvard graduate could too…
I guess anything goes in Web 2.0.

He is for real.
Catching and keeping attention on the web en masse has become a race to the bottom.
