Don't Waste Your Time With Guy Kawasaki

I'm not a huge GK fan, but I don't agree with YC disliking him so much. I think that he writes for a different audience.

I'd compare his books with Entrepreneur Magazine (does he write a column for them?). Practical, yet oversimplified, advice for the average joe.

We are the Wired and Business 2.0 crowd. I bet that 90% of Kawasaki readers have never even heard of del.icio.us, let alone YC.

YC doesn't dislike him. Even News.YC doesn't dislike him. Since there's no downvote link, all the article's (current) score of 13 means is that 13 News.YC users dislike him. We currently get 4500-5000 uniques per day, so that's not a large proportion.

Even the score is not necessarily reflective of the number of people that might dislike him.

It simply indicates the number of people that found the associated article interesting or valuable enough to give it an up vote.

There were actually 526 incoming hits from some part of news.yc, obviously not all of these people dislike AoS, but I would bet the number who do is significantly higher than 13.
