Yeah, we're good friends him and I... The other day we were at a family gathering, and he's like "Hey Pete, do you remember back in '05 when like nobody read your blog, except your mom?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And I'm like "Um yeah, what's you point?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And he's like "Remember how I redirected .00000000000001% of FaceBook's traffic to your site, so you could actually get some readers? And then it crashed your FreeWebs server."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At this point I see he's just messing with me, but I still play along. "Yeah, what's your point?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then he get's this big smile on his face. "Where would you be without me, cuisin? Still scrubbing toilets at McDonalds, getting all teary eyed when your site passed the 5,000,000 Alexa rank?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So then I'm like "You know, I can say nice things about you on Mashable, or not nice things."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So then he's like "You know, I can disable your Friend Adder Bots on Facebook, or ... actually I've got some new friends at Microsoft, so I can do a lot worse."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And then he added "3 more investment rounds and I'll have 15 Billion in the bank. You've got what, a blog with 125,000 imaginary readers?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So then I shot back "We'll see how you like OpenSocial walking off with your userbase."&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">FakePeteCashmore</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 02 Nov 2007 20:10:16 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
