Ah, irony

Ah, irony
: Maciej Ceglowski points us with glee to “an essay about the importance of linking to others, where all the hyperlinks just point back to himself. You can’t make this stuff up.”

: I want to make clear up here on the front page, and not just in the comments, that I’m not bashing, criticizing, ridiculing, or otherwise piling on Dave Winer with this. I know I’m linking to a piler-on. But I wasn’t piling. As I say in the comments: The irony is cheap, I grant, but I found it funny. It’s a good-natured rib, nothing more.

And I’m saying this out here, to be clear, just because the butane has been turned up high lately and I understand Dave interpretting a rib as a jab. It’s not.

Everybody clear on that?
