I just posted the article he references, and it is better...but he's still a marketing guy and I have to think that perspective is often going to ring hollow with technologists.
I don't think this a marketing vs technology culture clash.
Seth just writes some very good stuff and a lot of stream of consciousness stuff. The later has a tiny shiny idea at its core, that's wrapped in a tone of crap.
Perhaps technology demands more precision when expressing ideas, but still we often see the same style from tech writers.
And that's just it, bad style. Not a culture clash between the great kingdoms of marketing and technology.
