Google, I love shared items. I love, love, love that you’ve equipped me with tools to share things I like, to pimp my own blog, to go out and find other people shared feeds and get a human-aggregated view of the web. I love it to death, and I’m glad you’re sharing the tools with me to involve other people in the game.
Okay, I get that this was like the old days when hotels put the porn movies on the bill so your boss would get angry at you. I get that. I can understand that businesses might occasionally get caught with their digital pants down, and that maybe a few strategic next moves might be sussed out by something in a shared items field. I get it. I really get Scoble’s point that the PR team could’ve done a much better job.
