Heh

G-Man has details of the decision to unbundle Kiwiblog. An extract:


“For years now, actually 4, David Farrar has exploited his position as the highest rated blog in New Zealand, despite demands to the contrary. We feel it is therefore in the greater public interest to break-up virtual monopoly. he has used and abused his position shamelessly, at the expense of others have been forced to read his amusing yarns and Babylon 5 anecdotes, often against their very will,” said Chairperson .

Of course the cost of building a blog to compete with Kiwiblog is oh around NZ5c while the cost of building a rival loop would be around $5 billion, but hey it's still an amusing analogy.
