Google Workers
April 13th, 2006
What is the issue with Google Ads really. When I look at what John T. Unger is doing for Six Apart with this TypePad Hacks blog, when I think of how he’s helping a community of users, why should he not be compensated for his time?
AdSense is a way to pay his wage, that’s all.
Drucker gave us Knowledge Workers, I give you Google Workers.
In this economy, we need to simply pull up a blog, put out our banners and skyscrapers, and get to work, conversing, facilitating, making the connections, making the world a better place.
The notion that advertising makes the speech commercial to the point of untrustworthy is for those who are comfortably attached to some corporate or government teat. They don’t have to shill, what with the division of labor and all.
The rest of us are out here in the wilderness, getting smacked around by that invisible hand.
