Article name

The problem with Chris Anderson (Wired) is it just describes where he happens to have a job at the moment and will change in the future. Since we are building a long-term project, and since Chris will one day retire from working entirely, shouldn't we have a title that better describes what he is known for? If "Long Tail" is objectionable, how about the more generic and standard Chris Anderson (writer)? -- Stbalbach 18:28, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Anecdote

What is the point of that story that he put up a list of the spam he received? Is that somehow significant, important, or otherwise insightful? I get spam. We all get spam. Does he think otherwise?

Why would he put up a list of the senders, much less stick it into this article? Here, you want a list of the spam *I* received last month...??

Association with TED

Is there any reason why there is not mention of Anderson association with TED_(conference)? I think this is important and should be added. --Pierrem100 (talk) 15:15, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oups! Forget the question, I just found out it's not the same Anderson. --Pierrem100 (talk) 15:25, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Booktour.com

The link to this (in first paragraph) now leads to a GoDaddy domain parking page, so I assume that venture is dead, and the link should probably be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.133.73.98 (talk) 22:24, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
