Bloggers' code ripped up

Filed in archive Ethics by leon on April 20, 2007

Last week I did a blog entry looking at the debate surrounding Tim O'Reilly's proposal for a bloggers' code of conduct.

After the uproar, O'Reilly has now come out and said he has scrapped the plan.

In an interview in Wired magazine, O'Reilly concedes it was probably a dumb idea. "I've come to think the call for a code of conduct was a bit misguided."

Still, it gave him lots of coverage and publicity.
