It's a well-written piece, but seriously:
"If you're reading this, you've probably already dismissed the plan. You, the individualist, is determined to make your own way in this world."<p>No need to pander to tha audience so blatantly to make your point.
I just don't get the article. Would somebody care to explain it?<p>Rarely do I get exactly what I want by "just being myself." Being socially adept is a learned behavior, often requiring one to modify one's own behavior to fit in. I speak of this anecdotally. Maybe I'm missing the point?
Another blog post that would have been better off as a tweet:<p>"Follow the path of least resistance and be part of the system or ride your own wave instead."
The picture of society he paints appears to be a standard scifi plot. From Wikipedia Tron article: "Sark then informs everyone that they can either renounce their belief in the Users and join the MCP, or they will be forced to play games that result in their eventual elimination."
