Sam Sethi vs. Michael Arrington — the 100-word versions
European TechCrunch competitor BlogNation imploded two weeks ago. Yesterday, its founder Sam Sethi wrote a long post to explain how it was all Michael Arrington's fault. Today, Arrington responded. Both are blowhards who love nothing more than to spew verbiage at each other. Logorrhea as a lethal weapon. How to get your dose of schadenfreude without getting bored to death?

TechCrunch faces growing competition from within
Yesterday's post about former TechCrunch UK staffer Sam Sethi's decision to take Michael Arrington's TechCrunch head-on in covering American technology startups didn't capture the whole picture.

TechCrunch faces competition from former employee
Sam Sethi, a former blogger for the UK edition of TechCrunch, Michael Arrington's tech blog, had tried to keep things cordial with his former boss.
