Again, Please, In English?

Nick Denton takes Traction to task for the buzzword bingo in their press release:

Oh no, the corporate wordmanglers have got hold of blogging. "Traction is a leader in next generation Enterprise Weblog software, delivering interoperable, inexpensive, rapidly deployable, open and easy to use tools for groups and teams to communicate, share, organize and link business information in context."

Someone from Traction contacted me after I mentioned them in this blog a week or so ago and offered to explain to me their product offering. I plan to take him up on it and haven't had time yet, but I will report back on what I learn when I do.
