Jason Calacanis wrote an open letter to Apple CEO Steve Jobs, saying that he may shut down Weblogs Inc.'s unofficial Apple blog because he wants to avoid getting sued.
"It's quickly getting to that point Steve. Right now I'm thinking about shutting down our Apple site-TUAW.COM-out of fear that you'll crush us with legal bills some day.
Perhaps I'll just have those bloggers work on a Tivo or Jetblue blog-you know, a blog about a cool hip company that won't sue us for being obsessed with them!"
