Will PubSub soon be sleeping with the fishes?

What’s this?

It’s a Sicilian message. It means Luca Brasi sleeps with the fishes

Cue dramatic music….

Over at Techcrunch, Michael Arrington believes that Pubsub is imploding after an attempt at a merger failed.

I tried to use Pubsub a few times and failed utterly at doing so. If a relatively smart guy like me can’t figure it out – how can the rest of the masses?

Co-Founder Bob Wyman is commenting over at Techcrunch.

    I am called to know how that is spelled. I always thoght it was Lou Cabrazzi.

    Anyway, you are quite right. PubSub was too hard to use and the results were underwhelming and oftentimes way off target. Better tools came along–more by the day. I gave up trying to figure out how to figure out how to use PubSub. Web 2.0 is all about enabling airheads (like moi) to avoid having to figure anything out.
