Onilne Threats of Physical Violence again HeadRush

Kathy Sierra, of ‘Creating passionate users’, in one of the best bloggers that I have read, and here posts are some of the most cognative thinking on a real way to design products. (Here is the last time I posted about her)

However, recently she has decided to quit blogging becuase of obscene online threats of physical violence against her. You can read her post about it here. Here post explains how some very famous people are also involved with the sites where this spamming went on. Here is the response from RageBoy, who owned the site. He has taken down both the sites now.

I really hope Kathy comes back. It if unfortunate that she had to go through all this.

The discussions are on at TechMeme and Digg.

Robert Scoble is twittering about boycotting Digg. I don’t think that’s the way, but well it’s what he thinks.
