Dave Winer: I was conned

Dave Winer now says he was conned. He appears careful never to say who did the conning, possibly attempting to avoid a libel suit, but there is little doubt he refers to his current to-do with Adam Curry. As we noted recently Winer is fanning the flames in an old beef with Curry. It's funny that Winer, who is well known for posting provocative statements and then taking them down in an effort to play the victim, got caught by Adam Curry who has just been busted for editing the Wikipedia in a way Winer doesn't like.

The best part is where Winer claims it was a bug in the software, that he wrote and oft proclaims as the gold standard.
