Web 2.0 short sellers: Arrington, Calacanis
Two of the most financially successful Web 2.0 personalities, Michael Arrington and Jason Calacanis, are rooting for the financial failure of their competitors.
Calacanis warns the newspaper industry at his blog: In another 18-24 months newspapers are gonna hit the bottom and I think I'm gonna swoop in and try and buy one, build out the online portion, and buy a local TV station to go with it.
Arrington warns the blogosphere at BusinessWeek: I'm hoping everything crashes…Then I want to go buy all the big blogs.
Today, Arrington asked “Is Nick Carr the new Robin Hood, or just an Asshole?” while Calacanis recently noted "I'm sorry, does Mike Arrington work for free?” and “Kevin Rose: The Users shouldn't be paid… but I'll take $60M*”
