The very image of business blogging

I’ve got no real problems with most of what Anil Dash says in his explanation of why Six Apart is chasing after the business blogging market. It’s a valid and lucrative market and success there means (I trust) that 6A can afford to keep producing Movable Type for us non-business “individual hackers” (whatever that means). It’s similar to Apple and its iMacguffiny Media Thingie; as long the company keeps making sufficient iRevenue that it can afford to keep producing actual computers for me to use, I’m happy enough.
I do think, though, that Anil could have found a somewhat more congenial image to represent Joe Corporate, newly empowered biz blogger.

Really, now: Do you imagine that this fellow is thinking this…
Hooray! I’ve broken the bonds of that oppresive and inflexible Groupware Knowledge Management Content Solution Server!
…or this?
Game’s over, losers! I have all the money! Compare your lives to mine…and then kill yourselves!
I’m just sayin’.
