This taught me what it would take to get me to click on another gigaom.com link - an implication of an interview with Alan Kay.
It's right back on my "do not click" mental list, with an extra strong negative weighting. An article about how Alan Kay's comment from several years ago re: the iPhone suggests he might like the alledged new tablet, plus a quip from an interview a year ago does not a worthwhile post make.
The only good thing I can say about not having a universal micropayment system is that I'm glad it cost them hosting and bandwidth fees to handle my page load. I hope it was disproportionately expensive.
