Why I love Nick Carr

See this takedown of Faceberg’s latest buffoonish overly grandiose pronouncement about changing the friggin world when all they’re really doing is creating Webkinz for adults and selling ads to the morons who wander into the tent. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

As usual, Nick is swift and precise, like the German hit man in Denis Johnson’s new novel, “Tree of Smoke,” who kills people with poison darts. Seriously, Nick Carr is brilliant. Like scary smart. And scary funny. Then again, Faceberg is kind of just out there begging for it.
