When you’re in the Twitter dome, and you have something that blows up large, we grab onto it because it’s a place where we can see things pick up heat. But it’s sort of a false heat. It isn’t real. We’re all just shouting at each other.
— David Carr on Talking Points Memo
Along with original content and posts from across the Dow Jones network, this section of AllThingsD includes Must-Reads From Other Websites — pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Six posts from external sites are included here each weekday, but we only run the headlines. We link to the original sites for the rest. These posts are explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that the content comes from other websites, and for clarity’s sake, all outside posts run against a pink background.
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions.
