An interesting read about the hesitance to criticize design in the blog world. Matt and I have talked about this issue a bit. He's more familiar with more techy/geeky (male-dominated?) types of blogs where people and products get regularly criticized by both writers and commenters. Is it a gendered thing? Are female bloggers scared to be seen as not nice?
"The last category of the uncriticized is perhaps the newest: the power of happy. I speak mostly of the bloggers, those too helpful, too tasteful, and too relentlessly positive to be critiqued. There are two versions of this: the ostensibly neutral online magazine, like Dezeen and Fast Company’s Co. Design blog, and the more personal design blog. Co. Design occasionally publishes criticism, including a recent test run of the Jawbone UP, but the overall tone is aggressively up."
This was such a nice article. I do really wanted to put more comments in here. Great!

Ich denke, dass Ihre Perspektive ist tief, es ist einfach gut durchdacht und wirklich fantastisch an jemanden, der, wie man diese Gedanken so gut an, setzen weiß zu sehen. Great job auf diese.
