Guy Kawasaki Wants to Invent 500 MPG Car But Fears Valleywag and TechCrunch Won’t Like It

OK, this is a little tongue in cheek, but whatever- it’s Friday.

I got sent a link for an interview with famed (if you’re a geek) Apple Software Evangelist Guy Kawasaki over at Red Herring where he wraps up the interview by saying:

RH: Truemors has been much criticized for its cheap interface and for collecting more spams than news. How do you feel when you read the virulent attacks of your critics?

G K: Well I am a big target and no matter what I do I am a target. Let’s imagine that one day I invent a car that goes 500 miles per gallon with zero emission, and let’s say that TechCrunch writes that up, or Valleywag. The commentaries would be “it’s not that hard to do, this car could have been designed in one hour; and the only reason why Guy is getting attention about this car is because 25 years ago he worked for Apple.” It’s just my life.

Don’t let the haters hold you back Guy. If you feel there’s a 500 MPG car inside you, let it out. Al Gore will protect you from those meanies Michael Arrington and Owen Thomas.
