Foot-in-Mouth Awards

Posted in Humor, Quotes, Tech by Goyal on the December 27th, 2006

The Wired guys have done a 2006 Foot-in-Mouth Awards. Though the entire list is humorous and right up there, this particular entry, methinks should not have been there. I mean all this guy said was the truth, and nothing but the truth. CEOs in general are people who say twisted things in a more confusing matter. But Billy Boy believes in providing you the straight dope.

Let’s face it. We’re not changing the world. We’re building a product that helps people buy more crap — and watch porn.

~ Seagate CEO Bill Watkins

Personally, I think the one by Senator Stevens is the best on the list.
