Selective hearing - more feedback · Dec 3, 12:36 PM by Ken King

There’s a very funny review of Enablr and Transcribr over at Go Flock Yourself

Ok, this service it might not be totally without merit, but the simple fact that omit the last ā€˜e’ in no less than 3 words really irks me.

Lets grade 2.0 these guys, shall we?

With my selective hearing turned on, I’m going to take the possibility that the service might not be totally without merit as a compliment and say thanks for the shout-out.

You should, however, check out their 2.0 grading sheet, in which points are awarded for (among other things) leaving the e out of words, beta, and “big, stupid fonts”. We missed a few points by not making the RSS feed for this blog more obvious, we’ll have to try harder. I looked for other examples of this grading sheet, but it appears we were the first. We were also awarded a Web 1.98 button

Seriously, though, the article and comments raise a few things that deserve some thought – I’ll post that separately.

PS – also found through Go Flock Yourself, a Web 2.0 bingo card
