The geeks in power

In Innovation & Technology on July 16, 2008 by Frederik Cordes Tagged: , , ,

In connection with the release of the iPhone, Erik Spillman from KTLA reported from a queue in Burbank:

Shortly after, he receives loads of hate mails, is widely covered by blogs and is seen more than 300.000 times on YouTube. Eric then posts up an apology to YouTube viewers to control the damage.

It seems Erik Spillman is living in an 80’s loop and hasn’t caught on to the current agenda set by high-achievers such Bill Gates and Steve Jobs – and repeated by visionaries such as Janus Friis and Mark Zuckerberg – all have managed to merge their unquestionable geeky persona with a superstar status.

  1. I hadn’t seen this. It’s very funny when a shallow idiot tries to pick on people. Whoops.
