How to be a New Media Douchebag
The video New Media Douchebags in Plain English was posted back in October, but it’s new to me and might be new to you:
The video’s four-step program for becoming a new media douchebag is pretty simple:
- Don’t do any real work.
- Talk, type, tag, text and Twitter a lot of stuff. The greater the volume, the better!
- Be sure to hate a lot of stuff. And tell folks!
- Celebrate the other new media douchebags out there.
According to Valleywag — for whom the four-step program above could count as a mission statement — New Media Douchebags in Plain English is a parody of Google’s Google Docs in Plain English .
