Web 2.0 Backlash or Schtick?

Two of my favorite Web 2.0 blogs play the role of guardians of the web from the legions of hype-spewing VCs, but I think that is more of an act than reality. Without stupid 2.0 names Go Flock Yourself wouldn't have anything to write about. Witness this rant about Zoozio:
A single page was placed on a new site with yet another cutesy-assed Web 2.0 name (albeit a subpar one -- was z.oozi.us already registered or something?). This page contains not even a lick of content, yet its arrival was picked up and heralded as "news" in the weblogs of an enormous bunch of delusional and self-absorbed nitwits and clowns.
And Supr.c.ilio.us: The Blog seems more like a collection of wannabes rather than real critics. Still, they are both worth reading for a laugh.
