Why Dave Winer stopped worrying and learned to love the Fail Whale

Good stuff, as usual, from Dave Winer:

The Internet abhors a fun­nel: “This might be one of those fun­da­men­tal Internet laws, or it may just turn out to be a way to express another one.

The Internet is a bunch of pipes and tun­nels with proces­sors located at the junc­tions and at the ends of the pipes. Some of the proces­sors are lit­tle, things like iPhones, routers, blogs or web­cams and some are huge like Google’s cloud”
