Remember back in March when Dave Winer said that "probably before the end of 2006, I will put this site in mothballs, in archive mode, and go on to other things, Murphy-willing of course." ? Lots of people got bent out of shape, asking Dave to not stop his blog. It is now the very early in the morning of December 30th 2006. Did Murphy step in, or did Dave change his mind at some point?
Clearly Dave can still cause a big stir. Take his recent call to find a tree and string up Douglas Crockford because he came up with JSON (JavaScript Object Notation). Which of course, is “NOT EVEN XML!”. Lots of blog posts came from his comments on JSON, with Adam Kalsey really poking fun. There are stickers, buttons and a shirt available 🙂
Another wait and see situation.
UPDATE : Looks like Dave already said that he’d keep blogging until at least April 2007.
