Pseudo II: Josh Harris, the man behind We Live in Public and the infamous crock Pseudo.com, is back peddling another futuristic vision that’s really a frigging nightmare (and is therefore unlikely to happen). … Whatever you do, don’t brush your teeth.** … [Wasn’t Pseudo.com–billed as the “world’s largest video network”–just ahead of its time? It just failed at what Al Gore and Glenn Beck are doing now-ed. I’m not sure it took a visionary genius to predict that people would one day watch news over the Internet. But it took a brilliant con artist to convince Newsweek the day had arrived in 2000, when Pseudo.com‘s viewership in fact hovered “perilously close to zero.” … By all accounts Harris gave spectacular parties.]
