Ouch, harsh responses in here. I'll try diplomacy.

    Unfortunately, such a vision is tragically naive.

If you feel the vision of a thoughtful website is naive, the rest of your post is inconsequential. A better piece might examine the vision as a whole rather than disparaging one attempt to create it. I could be reading this in a way you didn't intend, though. I already know you feel the implementation is naive.

You seem to place thoughtfulness solely within the context of discourse. I'd say hubski has made you pretty thoughtful, considering the amount of words you've poured into posts about it. Though semantically, there seems to be a lot of disagreement on that point within this thread.

    The internet is not a thoughtful medium.

I'd be much more interested in you writing about this. (It'd also be a more subtle way to throw jabs at hubski, if that's your inclination.)

I think your post is more about venting your frustration with not finding your discourse utopia, within or without hubski, than it is about hubski.
