I’m busy today with my real job, so I don’t have a lot of time for commentary on this one, but I did want to get it up on the site.

Adweek published an article today entitled “Web Shops Go From Underdogs to Top Dogs” (link) that speaks to how some traditional shops are losing business to what were previously purely interactive shops.

It’s all good news for the interactive shops, I really hope they don’t screw up their chance by putting out crap like the traditional shops do.  But I couldn’t help notice a really catty damn tone in the article. You could almost hear the writer yawning with contempt as he was pulling it together.  They even scored a quote from someone that basically says they don’t trust an interactive shop with the sanctity of their brand.

It’s just all so damn catty sounding.  Is it me?
