What about us here in the UK. Netflix is a US only movie thing. Whats going to happen when we update to the NXE, what so we get in its place? Lovefilm? As far as i know they dont do streaming movies.. - Simon Wicks

lucky I have a US credit card and mailing address. ;) - Jon Price

I was thinking of this a few days ago. Having a stake in these companies gives us say. No one likes government intervention in the marketplace but the circumstance demand it. They have shown no will to adapt in even the most dire situations. The CEOs of these companies need oversight if we bail them out. Fine let's talk about unions but lets also talk about the jets and the CEO salaries, lavish expenses, parties and the other things mentioned in this post. Everything's on the table, not just this selective just this selective union bashing. Man, I agree with this piece. - Rolf Schewe

"US initiative to increase gas mileage" ... The initiative a)didn't go far enough and b)was given a loophole to drive SUVs through - a loophole created by Detroit's lobbyists. - Steven Vore

Latest news is the Dems are demanding a restructuring plan before giving another penny. Would have been interesting if anyone thought of that when they were handing out checks to AIG and the biggest banks. - Phil Boiarski

Unless I missed the "Why", he's saying we should care because Apple's iPhone developer program is shrouded in secrecy and Google can do whatever they want? I thought these were established truths by now. - Mark Martinez via twhirl

What's most interesting to me about this is that Apple and Google have so much attention that this was worth writing or reading. Well, actually, I'm still not so sure about either. - Chris White

Did you try <VirtualHost *> for the virtual hosts? - Michael Zehrer

No doubt that guy had an alcoholic mother. - Dave Winer

looks like the multi is actually corn. Real cheerios sound healthier and only have 100 calories. Yes there is less fat but not by much and only mono/poly. - mal

Methinks it's clever to create commercial controversy. - Phil Boiarski

"Actually Tom I’m able to get 200 miles on a charge fairly easily with my Tesla Roadster. My commute is five miles a day, and with another trip or two thrown in a day (i.e. lunch,dinner, meeting, movie, whatever) that means I can charge it every 4-5 days. I just had my charger put in yesterday and with the low speed charger it takes 6-8 hours for a full charge and with high-speed charger it takes 3-4 hours. I actually think I’ll never have to buy/drive another car since I only do two or three road trips a year (i.e. San Diego), and when I do I can us my old Mini Cooper. 95% of folks drive less than 100 miles a day… so the Tesla 2.0 at 60k and 3.0 at 30k would do the trick. Additionally, battery life is getting better and better, so my guess is they will be able to get the range from 220+ to 350-400+ in two years. When the car gets to 400 miles a charge and under 50k then it really starts to make sense because the gas savings of 2-3k a year pays for the additional 15k of the car (or..." - Jason Calacanis

200 miles on a charge is pretty good already for a car you use daily. I wonder if they can make cars for harder climates like Northern Europe. We have snow here already so the current model might actually have trouble over here in the winter. I postponed buying a new car as I hope that within 2 years there would be more hybrid/electric alternatives in the market. Only option currently is the Toyota Prius. I am not a big fan of that car. - Davide D'Incau

Yeah, bring on a version designed for harder climates, at 50k-60k and I'm there.! - Juho Tunkelo

I bet they'll shake Obama's hand. I like it. - flammable

I guess you have to prioritize. I still think the concept of in browser virtual worlds was good but there were some obvious user experience issues and the path to monetization wasn't really clear. You win some you lose some. - Devlin Dunsmore

That thing scared me. Brrr. Like a bad dream. - Dave Winer

Predictable in my mind, but encouraging that Google is actually focusing on core business and not getting sucked into tangentville. - AJ Kohn

Sad. They had a great engineering team behind the product; some of them fairly active on FriendFeed. - Tudor Bosman

Nice! Just tried it on "The Audacity of Hope" and it worked like a charm. Except I now see that I overpaid the for the book last week. ;) - Kevin C. Tofel

This is one reason I love the iPhone. Cool new apps keep coming out, and reignite that "this is SO COOL!" feeling over and over again. - Josh Bancroft

the future is here - Gregory Lent
