It's actually quite difficult to disagree with what Seth says, because there's usually not enough substance there to actually disagree with. Sometimes he's contrarian, but more often he's just superficial.

And it's just vague enough that people read into it what they want it to mean.

Each reader thinks he's confirming their own private intuitions, which makes them them feel smart and good, which makes them like him more.

Do you think this is how: "In 2001 he wrote 'Unleashing the Ideavirus' in five days." ?

Or is that just marketing/exaggeration?
