"We vigorously deny the rumor that Talkr will debut a fascinating set of new features at the Web 2.0 conference this year" says Chris Brooks, CEO of web 2.0 company Talkr.com. "However,"
Mr Brooks continued, "We are planning the release of some really cool stuff at about that time. It's just that we aren't sure that the Web 2.0 conference would be the proper venue."
He later retracted that statement, saying "Okay, okay. Yes. Actually, the Web 2.0 conference would be the perfect venue. It's just that, on moral principles, we are completely opposed to
that sort of blatant self-promotion."
Mr Brooks continued, "In fact, we would like to explicitly discourage anyone with an interest in Web 2.0 from suggesting to the conference organizers that they should include Talkr in the
agenda. John Battelle has posted a blog entry asking for the community's help to find interesting speakers (http://battellemedia.com/archives/001618.php). Please do NOT use the web page
provided explicitly for this purpose (http://fmpub.net/contact.phpto=jb) to request that Talkr make a presentation. Thank you. We appreciate your complete lack of support."
