The first word about exclusion at the BBC came from the Inquirer back in
October. I remember this well because I submitted this to Digg before I
boarded a place and it then reached a lot of major Web sites. The same goes
for Doug's transcription job with the Apple-Microsoft leaked E-mails. It's
propagating through large Web sites now. Remember Groklaw's "Allchin would
buy a Mac"? This made PJ a star. How small things can grow wings... thanks
to the powers of the Web.
