Speaking as a marketer, I had never heard of the Top Marketing Blogger who has been getting death threats, but I am all too aware of the milieu in which she (and the apparent threateners) operate - a shiny world of techie optimism and business book positivity.
I was perversely pleased that the whole incident proved that beneath the grinning surface of Web 2.0 marketing boosterism lurks the more familiar blogosphere of insecurity, pettiness, thinly-disguised hatred and casual misogyny.
