How crazy is this piece of news from Kathy Kinsley?
I just got a letter from MT about bloghouse. It says I’m in violation of their agreement for offering to install MT for people. I thought it was only if I charged for it that it was a problem. Sigh. Anyone know how to make this legal?
Yo, Ben, Mena, Anil, and Joi: are you people on drugs? Kathy is running an ISP, and she’s encouraging people to use your software by setting it up for them. You shouldn’t be upset about this, you should be happy, happy, dancing in the streets happy, crying for joy happy, tears streaming down your faces happy. But you’re threatening her for encouraging people to use Movable Type? Hello?
But I so sense a pattern here, which has come up over the last few days as I’ve seen my requests for support from the MT bulletin board going unanswered (I paid for MT, see.) MT has a new policy that it’s illegal for anyone to support their product, including them. This must be one of their VC Joi Ito’s Emergence Fantasies, somehow related to the frustration of the hive mind’s ability to support itself.
That must be it, for sure. Let’s drop those folks a note and see if we can’t get them into a 12-step program.
Three words: “TypePad. Paid Service.”
They’ve got your money already. And mine too…no response to my database crash question a couple of weeks ago.
I commented about this on Kathy’s site.
So did I.
