(Please forgive my posting via cellphone...)Is this your desk? Caffeine on the left and mouse on the right? This looks like a typical newspaper/magazine reporter's desk. See the memory card reader for pictures or recorded interviews taken in the field? Sleepless nights trying to finish the column/post before deadline? How about a Senior Editor/Boss who sleeps less than you ,constantly pushing without words but patting his employees on their back by giving them credit when due? Every Newspaper has a oversees journalist giving the reports from his offsite location. I think I ran out of imagery here because www.techcrunch.com reminds me of the succesful newspapers of old...Funny enough the "paper" versions are trying to shed their image of old style reporting...How does that saying go? Throwing the baby out with the bath water? As drastic as that sounds is as drastic as our WSJ and others sound...Come on guys just enable RSS, make it free to view the posts and do online advertising... No need to worry about Mr. Arrington, just leave a place at the table for him and others...
