Truncation Zen

I like Stephen O’Grady’s style of meta-blogging del.icio.us links. It’s handy to keep up with what a brilliant, open-source analyst thinks is important. In this post, somewhere along the line one of his descriptions got truncated, but with delightful results:

“I am the sworn enemy of most analysts, who do little more than tell you…what happened 5 years ago…or…exactly what won’t happen in the future…Not so with RedMonk.” – it’s comments like this, from real, bright practitioners, that make this job fu
Job fu. I like that.
