Democracy?

(April 10, 2007) It's weird. These days, people invoke the word democracy when they mean, "I want it my way." On the web, the sort of shouting match that looks like Crossfire run amok is often portrayed as some form of democracy. As soon as you buy into this view, it's not democracy when the critics don't get what they want.

From here, democracy looks like something else.

At interbiznet, we made the decision, long ago, to forego publishing comments as a part of our publication. (We get tons in email and occasionally publish one.) The reasons ranged from business model concerns to dealing with the actual hassle of keeping the comments spam free (techcrunch removes 15,000 piece of comment spam a day) to the impact on the burgeoning "recruitosphere".

I believed (and continue to believe) that not having comment capacity at interbiznet enhances the growth of Recruiting blogs. If that was the method for commenting on controversial pieces, it would cause others to write and publish on their own.  Rather than carry comments, we let people do it on their own pages.

That was four years ago and it seems to have worked pretty well. There are no plans to change interbiznet's approach. It's silly to toy with a formula that works.

In a recent concert, David Bromberg was heard to say (as fans called out requests), "Now people, you know I don't accept requests. Well, actually, I accept them, I just never perform them." My guess is that it will be like that at interbiznet. We'll continue to accept comments we will just only publish a very few.

However, each day's article will be posted in part to Recruiting.com starting May 1 (earlier if someone wants to do it). The full article will remain on interbiznet's site (this is a copyright question). Comments on interbiznet material will appear in the Recruiting.com conversation and I'll watch and listen. Where I choose to participate is an entirely different matter.

In the Recruiting.com experiment, I am interested in intelligent conversation.

Democracy, from my perspective, involves the intelligent and civil exchange of ideas. Those ideas should flow and progress in the conversation.  I'll consider a gentle contribution when it seems like my voice might make a difference.
