Glassdog had a spot-on ribbing of Boing Boing this morning (via Waxy.org). It’s essentially a shot at BoingBoing’s relative shamelessness when it comes to their advertising / business strategy. I have written at length about this before on at least three occasions (“More on Wired / Gawker media: Wired Conflicts of Interest”, “What’s with BoingBoing?”, and “The trend toward commercial blogs”). In all honesty, I think BoingBoing’s biggest shortcoming is their eye-bleeding design. It is easier to overlook a lot of things when ads don’t hit you in the face.
