Ellison critical of blogs

Information Week: ‘Praising Sun’s engineering prowess while damning the company’s leadership, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison said Sun’s engineers were given direction that “was so astonishingly bad that even they couldn’t succeed.” Of former Sun CEO and ardent blogger Jonathan Schwartz, Ellison adds, “Lots and lots of blogs does not replace lots and lots of sales.”‘

I’m not sure it was the blogging that was a problem, rather lack of sales, Sun was giving stuff away. With that in mind I say “DUH” to the collapse of the company.
