we like ours. just like an iphone; only no phone.
- Anna Croft
yes I have one and I love it to bits!! it is indeed very much like the iPhone without the annoying feature of haivng to receive phone calls on it ;-) The cameras are very low quality (less than 1 M Pixel) but good enough for quick snaps. However, the video is great. Using friendfeed on it is really easy, there is a lovely interface for it from a web page: http://friendfeed.com/iphone...

thanks for the ipod touch feedback. would you consider the camera and new display sufficient for an upgrade to the current ipod touch? consideration especially for a/r application exploration. Agreed- i really love the touch/mifi combination. debating on just holding out a little bit longer for an android tablet...

One of the most common questions posted on our Multithreaded Java programming discussion forum is some version of how to create a thread pool. In nearly every server application, the question of thread pools and work queues comes up. In this article, Brian Goetz explores the motivations for thread pools, some basic implementation and tuning techniques, and some common hazards to avoid.

I am really nervous about The Last Airbender. Shyamalan has not made a half decent movie in a long time
- Deepak Singh
I am nervous as well. I started thinking last night and I can not think of ONE shyamalan movie that I actually liked. We swore off of them before I remembered he did Airbender.. sigh... sounds like a wait for DVD moment.. sad...

Congratulations and good luck!! Does that mean we won't see you at SC09?

Does Facebook or Friendfeed pick up the real time web slack when Twitter goes down? What is your first instinct on where to turn?

Oh, look at all the fresh updates here! (Including mine) Is this the social media equivalent of a booty call?
- Justin Whitaker
and the funniest part is when your first reaction is to tweet and find out what is going on. oops. Nothing on the blog, I checked.

Can't access Twitter in NL either. Over to Friendfeed!

I'm having login issues with Facebook as well (and so are a number of my friends in different parts of the countries). FriendFeed FTW

@Sydney I rather like FriendFeed, there's just more people on Twitter for me, it drives WAY more traffic, and it's RARE good discussions evolve here from anyone other than POWER users.
- Ryan Stephens
love how we all pop over here when twitter is down ;)
- Kate
Johnny: I have more discussions b/c my friends engage more there...of course harder to follow and usually include only 2-4 people. I LOVE the threaded comments here, provided a group of intelligent people were chatting, but how often does that happen? Sometimes with people like Scoble, Owyang and Louis Gray? (that's been my experience anyway.)
- Ryan Stephens
I was not fully awake trying to bring up the Twitter page. Good to know it wasn't just me.

@johnny I'd love to see that list, I'm going to sit down with friendfeed this weekend and figure it out
- Sydney Owen
Well, you mean in general or just the current outage? ;)
- Mads Kristiansen
.. Scoble must have run his script again, I guess.. ;)
- Mads Kristiansen
Johnny: That's completely fair. I've lurked a lot & have read a lot of Louis Gray's, Scoble's and Valeria Maltoni's insights with respect to FriendFeed. You're right, maybe I'm not following the right people. And I didn't necessarily mean to imply there was a lack of intelligent conversation. It's just rare that I've seen these discussions develop from anyone's comments aside from a few power users. I'd be grateful for a list of users.
- Ryan Stephens
I'm blaming Jeff Elder for breaking the Twitterz in the Charlotte area, because he wrote a column about how it was good for listening for businesses. http://bit.ly/ospIC

Johnny: But how often does it start from someone's message that's not a 'power user' ? How often does someone following 100, have a 100 followers end up with conversations like this off of one of there comments?
