We really need to stop putting Calacanis discussions on here.

I'm kind of ambivalent on that point. Part of me suspects that bad things happen when good people just stand by and watch.

I also think each of these is another data point in a Google discussion, more than about Jason.

So, let's badger Matt Cutts, Googles mr. anti-spam until he gives an official position on this instead of discussing the same stuff over and over again.

I agree with you, more Matt Cutts stories as opposed to Calacanis ones. He doesn't deserve the press, negative or positive.

Which got me thinking, `vote-up sites` have the same view for each user. It would be interesting to see how user preferences could be detected and mixed in (like a personal ranking system), though I'm weary of a self inflicted echo chamber.
