I love one of the comments on that Jezebel article you mentioned, Jennifer: "Today, a group of celebrity-lawyers tried to stop the Internet. In response, the Internet pointed and laughed." - WorldofHiglet

The world looks different if you're depressed - health - 30 November 2009 - New Scientist
"DEPRESSION really does change the way you see the world. People with the condition find it easy to interpret large images or scenes, but struggle to "spot the difference" in fine detail. The finding hints at visual training as a possible treatment. Depressed people have a shortage of a neurotransmitter called GABA; this has also been linked to a visual skill called spatial suppression, which helps us suppress details surrounding the object our eyes are focused on - enabling us to pick out a snake in fallen leaves, for instance. Now Julie Golomb and colleagues at Yale University are trying to link this ability with major depressive disorder (MDD). Golomb asked 32 people to watch a brief computer animation of white bars drifting over a grey and black background, and say which way they were moving. A quicker response gave a higher score. Half of the group had good mental health, while the rest had recently recovered from depression. The latter were chosen so that medication would not... more... - RAPatton from Bookmarklet
Or is it that people with this type of broader view tend to become depressed by the modern world? - Ruchira S. Datta
I have to read the article to see more, but I've suffered from depression most of my life. And my problem is that I can't see the forest for the trees. I'm very very detail oriented. If anything my trouble is that I tend to focus on the bad to the exclusion of the good that's around. - Spidra Webster

I only meant that they aren't new. And in the several years they've been out, prices haven't fallen much. As far as I'm concerned, Moore's law is definitely worth marveling at. - Michael R. Bernstein
No, good stuff Michael. I was just reflecting on how advanced these games have gotten since the *old* days. - Hutch Carpenter

Critical Research Failure - Television Tropes & Idioms
"The most glaring incarnation of Did Not Do The Research. A particular instance where — frequently during a discovery of great scientific or historical significance — the resident Mr Exposition, whose Techno Babble has been extremely convincing (and perhaps even accurate) thus far, suddenly makes some comment that is so totally off-the-scale of inaccuracy that anyone with a cursory knowledge of the subject realizes the writers made the whole thing up." - Chris, Taskerrific Guy from Bookmarklet
This page is filled with glaring mistakes in many well known movies, shows, etc. that pretty much anyone with two brain cells to rub together should notice. And, in classic TVTropes fashion, they're listed in a way that makes you laugh, and makes you think. - Chris, Taskerrific Guy

@Kol .. :] that, partially, might have been the purpose.... I don't know it exactly either. :] .. was I reflecting on a cat under the fax, and that it is hard to fax that way ... /?:] ... "underfaxing at its worst" .. - Petr Buben

Try rolling the cat through a press first. Flat cats fit into the fax easier. - Bob Blunk
Fax, Petr. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
even a flat cat... faxes just can't handle the hair. You'd have to shave the cat first, else the hair will burn and stick to the drum... a mess! (I am extrapolating from transparencies, mind, i don't have access to a cat to test) - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Hehe, Joelle. This is now tied for the 'likes' top stop. One more then, hehe. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

In other news, Amber, Derrick and Steven are ready to rock and roll with their own private podcast shenanigans.
Interesting threesome. - Uncle CW™
We thought so, too. - Steven Perez
I'm not even going ask who is who.... - WorldofHiglet
I'm the grey one, of course. - Steven Perez
......[redacted] - WorldofHiglet
And I have the grey hair to prove it. HA GET IT GREY HAIR?!? I KILL ME. - Steven Perez
That is actually Perez and his "pet" bunnies after his first regeneration. He thought it would be a funny joke, and the pregnancies were hilarious. Ah, follies of youth. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Says the woman who put contraceptives in the rain. - Steven Perez
That was the Valeyard. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Same old excuse. "Wasn't me who dumped all those jellybeans on Atlanta - it was the Valeyard." "Wasn't me who started an intergalactic war with the Judoon - it was the Valeyard." "Wasn't me who crossconnected Skype with my TARDIS and accidentally erased the time when Bell invented the telephone - it was the Valeyard." - Steven Perez from IM
That time is really was the Valeyard, I swear. That was during the time I was really drunk and told everyone in porn that VHS was better than Betamax. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Yeah, and what happened? It took forever to get the earth properly reset out of the Porn Dimension. And we still haven't figured out what to do with a million sex-craving people from another dimension. - Steven Perez
Nobody wanted to leave that Dimension but you and The Doctor. Everyone else was happy. - Amber, Random Time Lord
And very sore. And walking funny. And about to merge into the dimension where the Vatican and the Taliban ruled the world. So, yeah, had to fix your screw-up. - Steven Perez from IM
There was going to be no merging, that was just a theory. - Amber, Random Time Lord
A theory championed by you and the guy who has a thing for stupid blondes. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Right. Because the Doctor had no idea what he was talking about. And we had to do it without you, Miss Freaky Orgy Mistress. - Steven Perez from IM
Humans dig that crap, why else would their be sooooo many of them on their little planet? - Amber, Random Time Lord
Hey, I'm not the one who couldn't be bothered to save reality because she was busy getting it on with another reality's Halle Berry. - Steven Perez from IM
I wouldn't do that, she is not my bag. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Yeah, right. Not what you said back then, "Valeyard". - Steven Perez from IM
If you guys had just left the Master alone and not just assumed that I didn't want him to turn my TARDIS into a paradox machine. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Right, because leaving the Master to run rampant is *****such***** a good idea. Maybe we should do that the next time the Daleks show up. "OH NOES THE DALEKS ARE GONNA BLOW UP TIME AND SPACE. Oh, well, too busy shagging eight Brazilian girls. Maybe they'll just go away if we leave them alone." Great plan. - Steven Perez from IM
The Master is totally harmless. He gets all this power and then blows it doing something stupid. The Daleks are just metal psychopaths, I've been saying to take them out for years, but everyone is hung up on the genocide thing. - Amber, Random Time Lord
"Totally harmless"?!? Yeah, except for that time when he killed one-tenth of the population of the earth. Or burned Japan. Or tried to kill the universe by making a Time Lord Empire? THAT Master? - Steven Perez from IM
Most of his plans can be foiled by unplugging something. - Amber, Random Time Lord
And again, where were you? Having threeways with various sex-addled people. Bad Time Lady. - Steven Perez from IM
Drinking with the Romans actually. They knew how to throw a party. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Great. Drunk and derelict. Good thing Galifrey isn't around anymore, or they'd take away your TARDIS and ground you on earth. - Steven Perez from IM
If you have all of time and space, why would you not just party all the time? And not one of us that are left are more or less corrupt than the others, why else would we have fled from the time war? - Amber, Random Time Lord
"Party"? "Fled"? Well, now we know why Galifrey lost. - Steven Perez
Well I see you didn't stick around to sacrifice your life. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Obviously. You were busy partying. - Steven Perez from IM
If you had stayed with everyone else you wouldn't be around now, hypocrite. - Amber, Random Time Lord
The Doctor fought and survived. - Steven Perez from IM
The Doctor decided it was a great idea to sacrifice everyone else that was there. - Amber, Random Time Lord
He certainly thought he did. - Steven Perez from IM
DO ANYBODY NO WHY STEVEN PEREZ ADMITS TO BEING A BUNNEH? DYSP!!! - Jimminy Fuller
Never admitting you are a coward is much worse than the act of cowardice itself. - Amber, Random Time Lord
I'm sure that gives you much comfort. - Steven Perez from IM
I should have never saved you from that mess you made on the moon of Poosh, it saddens me that you can't admit to yourself that you ran. The only other thing I can think of that would be worse would be if you had just as much Time Lord blood on your hands as he does. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Poosh? You drunken idiot, that wasn't me. And for you to assume that I ran from the Time War, as opposed to certain people who were too drunk and sexed up to fight, only proves you need to lay off the sauce. - Steven Perez from IM
You aren't dead, all of them are dead. - Amber, Random Time Lord
You were still in your bunny incarnation on Poosh. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Again, with the drink. Time to taper off. - Steven Perez from IM
I have video. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Knowing your orgies, I'm pretty sure I know what's on it. - Steven Perez from IM
In one case there was a Time Lord Bunneh, on the moon of Poosh. - Amber, Random Time Lord
And what else did the aliens from Planet X tell you? - Steven Perez from IM
That Time Lords are arrogant and sore losers, I'm kinda glad I'm only half. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Hmm. Was that before or after the anal probe? - Steven Perez from IM
Anal probes are your thing, as evidenced by the video. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Photoshopped my head in again to cover your dirty deeds, did you? You learned nothing from the last time you tried that. - Steven Perez from IM
Yes, Photoshop. Used as a verb. You do still have a dictionary, yes? - Steven Perez from IM
Yes but I don't use human toys to forge things when you do the stupid things on your own. Remember, you are the one who wasted a regeneration on a bunny joke. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Hey, I'm not the halfling who likes to mimic the ugly traits of other species for entertainment. And I have never regenerated into a bunneh. Again: liquor ... by half. - Steven Perez from IM
At least I am not a species-ist. - Amber, Random Time Lord
That much is true. You'll mimic any ugly traits from any species. That one trait you picked up on Melismajora, where they smoke curried dog meat, was really disgusting. - Steven Perez from IM
Who decided drunken debauchery was ugly? It is pretty fun. The dog-meat smokes helped me lost that weight I gained on the brownie planet. - Amber, Random Time Lord
And there it is. Why does the universe keep falling into peril? Because Amber has to keep knocking down dimensional walls to get her drunk on. - Steven Perez
It all works out ok, plus I don't flat out defy the rules of time . . . like some people. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Oh, I'm sorry, were you still going. Amber? I was busy making myself some dinner and fighting off another Auton invasion. I had no idea you were still yammering drunkenly about stuff that happened in your head. - Steven Perez from IM
Oh no! Perez had to actually lift a finger to stop some life-sized G.I. Joes. Somebody give a cookie to the dude that is picked on by action figures. - Amber, Random Time Lord
So tell me something, O Brave Coward: how much extra does your drycleaning service charge to get those pee stains out every time you come across a Slitheen? - Steven Perez
I don't get hunted down by people like you guys do. Everybody wants to be friends with me so I'll take them to the parties. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Well, if I walked around with a fifth of Chivas and howled at the moon, people would follow me, too. - Steven Perez from IM
But Perez is busy pissing off crash test dummies, and gassy glo -worms. - Amber, Random Time Lord
I call it "saving the world". As opposed to "getting drunk and letting evil win". - Steven Perez from IM
They are only evil because you guys are busy pissing them off, which makes their plans more dramatic. If not they would just be mildly annoying. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Excellent Bizarro logic, Tila Tequila. "Hey, Mr. Police Officer, you know the local gang promised us that they wouldn't burn down our businesses if you would stop throwing so many of their members in jail for stealing. Could you lay off for a few weeks?" - Steven Perez from IM
That crap only happens on the human planets. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Says the half-human. - Steven Perez from IM
They jam themselves in like sardines, then wonder why everyone is mad. - Amber, Random Time Lord
So says the half-human. Yet again. - Steven Perez from IM
Are you not aware that the friendfeed audience is full of humans? - Amber, Random Time Lord
All the more reason to enlighten them to the greater universe. Instead of using their weaknesses as a personal excuse for laziness. - Steven Perez from IM
Jesse Stay
This is my first post from the Xbox - cool!
Yet, that's not assumed cool by 99% of the population. You have an odd sense of "cool". :) - Louis Gray
Unfortunately I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do with it - I'll probably have much more fun with the Facebook implementation - Jesse Stay
Yeah, I posted from it once, but it's too much of a pain for it be really useful. Last.fm integration is way more cool. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
agreed, the last.fm integration is very cool - Jesse Stay
do you have to finish a level or kill some boss before you get friendfeed access? - Allen Stern
Allen, now that would be cool! - Jesse Stay
Now if they just gave us a browser they wouldn't need to provide these Twitter/FB/etc. tools in the first place - Jesse Stay
jesse - you can get the browser, you just have to beat the louis gray boss level - Allen Stern
ooh...there's a Louis Gray boss level? - Jesse Stay
You can't pass that level. Nobody does. - Louis Gray
jesse to get to the level, you must be wearing the social median tshirt, hit the F + F keys then hit google reader expert level - Allen Stern
Louis Gray
Paul Buchheit is talking about the evolution of e-mail at TechCrunch's Real-time Crunchup now. http://www.building43.com/realtim...
He says: E-mail is good for a few things, but it is too private for some things. E-mail is too specific, and I might want people to join in. - Louis Gray
E-mail has a history that is more like filling out forms. (Subject example) On Twitter, Facebook, whatever, people write out a sentence (probably don't include vowels)... - Louis Gray
(Paul on integration of chat/wall/email in Facebook) It is important to recognize these are different forms of communication. Is this public? Private? Who did this come from? If you take e-mail and IM, people know how it behaves, and you have to be careful if you change how those behave in a big way. - Louis Gray
Methinks FF is the way to go. Email does need to move on. - τorƍue
Paul: I think e-mail in the large part needs to go away in my opinion. The perfect email is the Amazon shipping notification. I get it and don't have to do anything about it, just hit archive. - Louis Gray
Paul: I've come to realize I just get too much e-mail and people are always asking for things and they often use a lot of words. Things like Twitter encourage people to not use many words and I don't have to click to open it and ignore it. Email has some fundamental problems, because it's not a technical problem, it's a matter of social norms. People think I am going to respond, and you can get buried in your e-mail. You can spend half a day and it's not a good way to live. - Louis Gray
Paul: Email has this expectation that it will just keep piling up until you take care of it all and that is a fundamental flaw. - Louis Gray
Paul: E-mail is not going to go away until the robots kill us all. - Louis Gray
Paul: If you get a message in your FB in box, you get an email. Same thing on FF if you get a DM you get an email. But it's not the same as an e-mail. It's shorter. - Louis Gray
Paul (on FriendFeed): It is going to be around next week/month/year. (Not sure if he is authorized to say due to FB masters) - Louis Gray
Paul: There is a lot going on at FB. It's a complex company. The FF team is working on a couple of infrastructure projects that will enable a lot of cool new things. - Louis Gray
Paul: A lot of what goes on in the real time systems is what's going on right now. If I don't respond to IMs until the end of the day, it stops working. I can do that with e-mail. - Louis Gray
Paul: One of the real weaknesses with email is that it does get buried. We tried to fix that with GMail with search so you could find it. One of the things about the Web is that everything has a URL and can be shared. E-mails don't have URLs. - Louis Gray
Paul: HAS NOT TRIED GOOGLE WAVE - Louis Gray
Paul: I am very interested to see where Wave goes. I am very interested in the long term. When you have that many new ideas and that many new innovations it takes time to sand off the corners to make it usable. It will probably take a few years to get people comfortable to using it every day. - Louis Gray
Paul: Wave is not a competitor to Twitter and Facebook. (Not a competitor to Friendfeed despite what Steve Gillmor says) It breaks down when you get too many people involved. My guess is the sweet spot is as a group collaboration tool. - Louis Gray
Paul: I definitely think that (Google Chrome OS) is the direction of the future. It is a much nicer way of working. Having data stranded on a machine somewhere is kind of archaic. I like the model of everything being in GMail, accessible anywhere. - Louis Gray
-- panel ends -- - Louis Gray
Next panel: Paul says "I'm at Facebook for the moment, I guess. Previously FriendFeed". :) - Louis Gray

The Geolocation panel at the Real Time #crunchup is interesting. Live now: http://www.building43.com/realtim... Foursquare Google Latitude, etc.
is this guy on right now going to ask a question? - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
Rob La Gesse
Feel free to discuss the Real Time CrunchUp here.
Real Time is real time :) Very cool for TC to allow the live stream. (Done with a @NewTekInc Tricaster I believe). - Robert J Taylor
Who has questions for Twitter COO, Dick Costolo? - Robert J Taylor
Wow - Twitter is going to put CoTweet and others out of business. And I can't wait for their business version - will pay today! - Rob La Gesse
Huge 90 min panel about to start - quite impressive list of participants! - Robert J Taylor
That's the typical-sized Techcrunch Monster Sized Panel. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins
Smells like teen spirit - Rocky Barbanica
I can hear Scobler laughing from here in Pacifica - Rocky Barbanica
Hows my Tricaster working? - Rocky Barbanica
Rocky - it appears to be working great :) - Rob La Gesse
quality of the real time stream is really amazing. well done. - Karoli
I want a link too... - Karoli
Alex Scoble
Who else out there dislikes the use of "preso" as an abbreviation for "presentation"?
I hate it. Similarly, I hate "pressie" for "present". - Rochelle
Yeah, but you are not liberal...pffttt ;) - Alex Scoble from IM
ew. that happens?? ick. - pea
Haven't heard it before, but yuck, don't like it. - Cassandra
Never heard that before. People around here usually just call it a "Powerpoint" ;) - Jan Ole Peek
Yeah, Pea...unfortunately, it does - Alex Scoble from IM
Me. - Trish R
Have I told you guys lately how much I <3 you? - Alex Scoble from IM
I think that calling a presentation a "preso" is grounds for a good old fashioned punch in the jaw. Thats gotta be in the law books somewhere. - Joe Pierce
ugh. preso. that's right up there with friggin' "webinar" - holly
Never heard of it before, but it ranks up there on the lame meter with 'frisco' as an abbreviation for San Francisco. - Jeff P. Henderson
I've never cared for using Prego as an abbreviation for spaghetti sauce - Davis Freeberg
Ouch, Jeff - Alex Scoble from IM
I've never heard "preso" for "presentation" only for 'press conferences' and only then when we were setting one up. We also used 'presser' and the younger *girls* used 'pressie'. - Admiral Anika
And now you have - Alex Scoble from IM
Looks like the first half of the George Bush version of the word. - Paul Puri
I do ! plus i also cant stand some colleagues who are from across the pond calling it preeesentation when it really should be presentation - viki saigal
ugh, ahh (head banging on desk) - Kim Landwehr
Don't forget "doco" or "docco"? for "documentation". GRRRR. - ha3rvey (Ho)^3
I can understand using it on Twitter, where characters are so precious. Would hate hearing it spoken though. Nasty. - Laura Norvig
Doco? Who the heck says that? Doc is the correct abbreviation for documentation. - Alex Scoble from IM
I don't even know about this lingo until you mentioned it here. My opinion: dislike! - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
I'm with Alex on 'Doc' versus doco, although I do like (and use - please don't hate me, or if you do, do it right) deets for details, as in 'send me the deets on the shindig, so I know where to go.' - Cassandra
Sometimes when I talk to people like that, I make up abbreviations just to throw them off. i.e. DNL for "do not like" - ha3rvey (Ho)^3
Never heard it before, hope never again. Awful. - Lo
I haven't heard it before, but I cringe just thinking about it. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)
"Preso"? First time I've heard that abbreviation. When I say it out loud, it sounds really stupid. - Jason Huebel
Never heard it before.....think I'd laugh if I did.... - Bonnie Foster
Laura is on to something.. I have mostly seen it used since Twitter and by users - Holly Rae
I've written it, and most likely, mostly on Twitter. I don't think I actually say it though. I do think it would sound lame. God, I hope I don't say it. - Lynne d Johnson
++++ although I also despise calling them "decks" ugh - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
Marco, YES. I was going to mention that too. decks/slidedecks - no. - holly
Ohh you guys would hate living in Australia :) - Mo Kargas
Meeeeeee! Also convo for conversation. I don't mind deck for PowerPoint. I don't know that I'd understand deets for details, and i'm aware that probably I'm the only one who uses capes for capabilities. - MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF
Never heard it ... must be one of those 'west coast' things ... :) - Charlie Anzman
Here's how it goes: docu (for documentary) slide deck (for preso) cap (for capability) 'za (for pizza) - Jim Norris
You could make a crisp hundo for making a decent preso. - Josh Haley
I don't even like the real word pesto, let alone preso (for the record). - Micah Wittman from iPhone
P.S. I despise "totes" also. Really? You can't spare 2 more syllables or 2 more characters to say "totally" (which, itself, is a desecration of the English language) ...? - Laura Norvig
and lappy for laptop - ffcode
calC for calculator - ffcode
Truly, Alex, "preso" is an abomination unto the Lord. It may even be the abomination that brings desolation! :-) - Ladybug Heather

MYTH No. 1: Radiohead Can Do No Wrong (REALITY: Radiohead kinda blow.) - http://www.spin.com/article...
MYTH No. 1: Radiohead Can Do No Wrong (REALITY: Radiohead kinda blow.)
"They're the vanguard of music, a post-rock think tank, the absolute state of the art. They've also been righteous, giving a confused music world a moral center. So we sit, wearing headphones and frozen grins, and continue denying that guilty, nagging feeling that actually, in some ways, when you think about it…Radiohead kinda blow. Few, save for Liam or Noel Gallagher, dare speak this heresy aloud, instead couching it in longings for a "back-to-basics" album or a "return to form," despite the fact that Radiohead are at their critical and commercial peak. Civil (by Internet standards) discussions reside on Yahoo message boards with titles like "Why Did Radiohead Become Dull and Boring?" But while such almost apologetic criticism typically hides online or at water coolers, sometimes the elephant isn't in the room, but onstage." - Derrick from Bookmarklet
*gasps* - Derrick
except for one mainstream charting song, I always filed Radiohead away with The Pixies, Velvet Underground, New York Dolls, The Residents. Entirely unlistenable for real people, but inspiration crack for real artists/musicians who can build off them and make some listenable stuff. - Matthew DeVries
They've had more than a few things here and there that I've found enjoyable. Karma Police, Optimistic, There There to name a few songs. Haven't really given their latest albums a listen. - Alex Scoble
I really loved OK Computer but found Kid A and Amnesiac hard to get into...In Rainbows brought me back into the fold, and I liked Yorke's solo album more than I thought. One thing I do have to give to them is that they truly make albums as opposed to hits or singles. Remember albums? - Derrick
I'm pretty much an all out Radiohead fanboy. I can't think of many songs I dislike, but there's a ton I love. This article coming from Spin makes me laugh a little though. Not to talk smack at them just because they're talking poorly of Radiohead, but I can't remember when the last time I even looked at a Spin mag, let alone bought one. Different strokes and all that, but to me this is like Rolling Stone criticizing Radiohead... big deal. - Robert DeBord
When I first heard some of Kid A (not long after it came out) I hated it; it took going back and listening to The Bends before I started liking them. I just listened to Kid A again yesterday and didn't mind it anymore, but I didn't instantly love it either. Maybe after a few more listens? I think they were ahead of the curve on that one. MDV - what are you talking about? Pixies, New... more... - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
Hmm. Loved Pablo Honey and The Bends but simply could not listen to OK Computer. Never bothered since, but still love the CDs I have - WorldofHiglet
This stuff is subjective. The Spin piece is silly, IMO. Some folks think Radiohead blows, some folks hang on every note. - Kurt Starnes
Radiohead is mentioned in that best ever rock conversation enough to warrant their inclusion in that conversation, which means you'll see as many if not more vocal haters as you do for a band that everybody (but me) knows blows. That is just the way it goes. - Michael W. May
Jandy - I'd hardly consider you a member of the unwashed masses. Even though you don't play an instrument, it's obvious you have the ear of an artist and an ability to appreciate on an artists level, to get to a lot of things most of us can't. - Matthew DeVries
Radiohead is the new Oasis. - Akiva Moskovitz
The band or the geographic feature? - Matthew DeVries
Sorry, Akiva, but unlike Oasis, Radiohead actually makes good music. - Alex Scoble
You don't understand the point, Alex. I'm not talking about the music. Like Oasis, for Radiohead, it's become more about the band than the music. Radiohead producing music is a side-effect of them simply being Radiohead. - Akiva Moskovitz
Akiva - I think one could also make your argument for The Rolling Stones, Grateful Dead, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, etc. or any great band. Radiohead being Radiohead is not exclusive of Radiohead making great music, IMO. - Kurt Starnes
Again, I wasn't writing about the quality of the music. And I never wrote that my correlation was limited to just Oasis. - Akiva Moskovitz
When did Radiohead get 'dull and boring'? If you think that you just don't get them. They've been my favourite band for years and I can't see that changing. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
I 'get' Radiohead and have been a fan since The Bends. But I do find them dull and boring now. OK Computer was their last really thrilling release. The only people who seemed to really like Amnesiac and Kid A are people who have never heard of Warp Records. - Akiva Moskovitz
You forgot about Hail to the Thief...which I thought was a pretty solid album. - Alex Scoble
Then again, Akiva probably suffers from myxomatosis. - Alex Scoble
That came after Amnesiac and Kid A. You have to remember that a lot of people didn't get into Radiohead until Kid A and Amnesiac. And, to me, Hail to the Thief sounded like an odds-and-ends collection rather than a full album. In Rainbows, on the other hand, was pretty damned good. But it's still just a pale shade of what Radiohead used to be capable of. - Akiva Moskovitz
I kinda read through most of the above comments. Do I get a cookie now? - Micah Wittman
Also, have you seen the dude's eye? WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIRD. - Akiva Moskovitz
I've been listening to Radiohead since Pablo Honey, and I like their newer stuff better, although OK Computer is still my favorite. One thing I do agree with: their best days may very well be behind them, since it sounds like they're never going to do another album. - Victor Ganata
The cynical side of me wonders if Radiohead's choice to not do an album has more to do with their inability to put together a good one than anything else. - Akiva Moskovitz
And if your choice is between putting out something that isn't up to snuff or doing nothing, I'd be fine with them doing nothing. - Alex Scoble
Thom Yorke does sound totally burnt out. So that may very well be true. - Victor Ganata
They were really frickin' good at the beginning of the zeros, but anyone with that much good press can't maintain. - Ciaoenrico
As they say over at MetaFilter, Your Favorite Band Sucks. - s t e v e
I would never have a favorite band that someone else has ever heard of. - Akiva Moskovitz
They never even played a show / you can't hear them on the radio. - s t e v e

Toast goes in the toaster.
No. Toast comes OUT of the toaster. Bread goes in. :-) - Lisa L. Seifert
Wrong! Bread that is destined for the toaster actually exists in a pre-toasted state and thus: toast goes in the toaster. - Akiva Moskovitz
Who's to say which bread is pre-destined, though? (This is a weird conversation.) - Lisa L. Seifert
@lisa Presbyterians believe the toast is pre-destined other believe the bread has a choice to make once inside the toaster. - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
"Who's to say which bread is pre-destined" - the bread gods? - Brian Sullivan
Let's ask Louis - Steven Hodson
This is the deepest conversation on FF EVER. - Eric Schlissel from twhirl
Louis is a bread god? - Brian Sullivan
Toast that comes out of the toaster was clearly destined to become toast because that is what it has become. We cannot look at a piece of bread and know that it was meant to be toast until it has become toast but once it has become toast we can say, 'Ah, yes, this slice of bread has become toast and thus it clearly has existed in a pre-toasted state up until now.' And thus: toast goes in the toaster. - Akiva Moskovitz
This flies in the face of Schroedinger's Toast Theory which suggests that bread placed into a toaster exists both in a toasted and untoasted state that can not be determined until the damn thing pops up. It's one of the most delicious smelling theory in all of science. - Akiva Moskovitz
I have had too much wine to follow this any further - Brian Sullivan
Does your cat put jam on his toast? - David Billingham
but then you should have said "Pre-toast goes in the toaster." - edythe
:-D But Akiva, if I'm following you correctly, you might as well say excrement comes out of the toaster, because the toast "was clearly destined" to be eaten and subsequently excreted. You could go a step farther and say the nitrogen from the excrement goes into the ground, where it is taken up by more wheat, to make more toast, to become more excrement. Thus the universe is excrement in a constant state of becoming itself. - Karim
Maybe it's not that "shit happens" so much as "shit is happening." - Karim
The toast is not toast. There is no toast. There is no bread. There are only crumbs. All else is illusion. - Roger Benningfield
you can say that again. - edythe
@Brian Actually, I think Loic Le Meur is the supreme bread being (if I dream tonight about Loic teaching me to bake bread, I will have to stay off all social media for a week). - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF
Roger, that is very close to being a Crumbist heresy! - Karim
Edythe:The toast is not toast. There is no toast. There is no bread. There are only crumbs. All else is illusion. - Roger Benningfield
if (empty $toaster) { $toaster += $bread; while ($bread != $toast) ... } - Tim Hoeck from NoiseRiver
roger, i actually meant karim, but i'll take what i can get. :) - edythe
Edythe: Thank you for confirming that I am, indeed, the Mr. Pibb to everyone else's Dr. Pepper. - Roger Benningfield
lol awwww Roger, that is not what she meant... :-D Besides, I heard Pibb recently got his doctoral degree... - Karim
i think they have something called Mr. Pibb Extra now. - edythe
of course, it goes without saying that the water in the Mr. Pibb, extra or otherwise, was always destined to be Mr. Pibb, and therefore should be more accurately referred to as "water ingredient for Mr. Pibb". And the same goes for water ingredient for Dr. Pepper. - Trent Olson
Karim, if you place a slice of bread into your toaster and then out pops excrement, I'd contact the manufacturer immediately and lodge a formal complaint. That toaster is a little TOO efficient. - Akiva Moskovitz
Akiva, i think your comment has a typo...don't you mean to say "and then out *poops* excrement"? makes much more sense... - Trent Olson
OMG you guys! Y'all have brought tears to my eyes. - Yolanda
Hey... that rhymes! I wish there was a way to favorite a conversation here. - Yolanda
Wow. This just kept going after I signed off last night. You guys crack me up. For shizzle. - Lisa L. Seifert
[curtsy] - Akiva Moskovitz
Are you wearing a skirt?? ;-) - Lisa L. Seifert
THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER!!! - Alex Scoble
NO WAY DO ANYBODY ELS NO BOUT DIS DISKOVERIE O_O - Danny Minick
Erp. It's back. - Lisa L. Seifert
I cannot believe that despite the name-dropping in this thread, that nobody actually asked me. I would clearly have illustrated how Akiva is wrong - again. - Louis Gray
This is the one thing that I am definitely not wrong about. - Akiva Moskovitz
This still cracks me up. Also, I miss Karim. - Yolanda
I don't have a toaster, yet I can make toast. How is this possible? - Jim: Dead Like FF
Yolanda, me, too. He was the best drive-by commenter in his class. - Akiva Moskovitz
I also miss Karim. *sigh* - Lisa L. Seifert
If toast goes in the toaster, then a wife goes down the altar. Since I do not believe a pre-vows bride is a wife, I cannot agree that bread that has yet to be toasted is toast. [edit: also, if a toaster malfunctions and does not do any toasting, you don't have toast] - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF

I'd just like to personally say thank you to all of you for your support with Flickchart. It's been incredibly exciting and rewarding to see so many of you enjoying it and sharing here on FriendFeed. It really means a lot to us, and we appreciate you and all the help you've given us through your comments, suggestions, and opinions. Thank you.
Thank you (and curse you!) for making such a fun and addicting website! Glad to be part of something special. :D - Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Ditto to what Haggis said - when you rollin out Tunechart?! - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
It's addicting alright. ;) - Alejandro
my son and I played it on the way home on the train tonight - ever selection we made was the same which is a little freaky as a dad :) - mike "glemak" dunn
Don't mention it. - Merry Xmas FFeeders - AJ
@Marco: Man, you're SO close on calling that domain name. Did you guys think we were stopping at movies? ;) - Jeremy Thompson
Thank you for such a great service! - Kevin Whalen from email
Thank you for such a great service! - Kevin Whalen
@jeremy lol dammit you mean I squatted on tunechart.com for nothing? (kidding of course I have no connection to Miami) hellz no! i would have been shocked if you did stop there! in fact I'm heading to GoDaddy right now to grab Colorchart.com, Countrychart.com, universechart.com, shampoochart.com, carbonatedbeveragechart.com and cheesechart.com so I can head you guys off at the pass and sell you the domain names for a quick buck ; p Seriously though - VERY much looking forward to the tune version! - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
Don't forget videogamechart.com and boardgamechart.com and tvchart.com and bookchart and fastfoodrestaurantchart.com and cookiechart.com and sitechart.com....the possibilities are ENDLESS. The music one should be next, though, definitely. :) - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
Music - is definitely next... others are planned. - Nathan Chase
Nathan, with these charts you are really spoiling us. - Andrew Roche
That's probably not what some FriendFeed users will be saying once we launch them all with FF integration. - Jeremy Thompson
I think you're overlooking Crystal Pepsi. - Jeremy Thompson
Vanilla vs Cherry? … Coke that is. - Andrew Roche
DR. PEPPER IS BETTER. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
You kids and your carbonated beverages. [/old man] - Steven Perez from IM
Wheeeeeee! Wait.... I'm actually supposed to be coding this stuff right now. - Jeremy Thompson
lol lindsey that one would have to be a choice between cherry coke and Robitussin for me blecht! what no Dr. Enuff? - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
FlickChart is great fun and I am only glad to be of help. Thank you! - Parth Awasthi
Yeah, FlickChart is awesome. If there is anything else I can do to help, let me know :) - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
It's brilliant Nathan, & it sure gets discussions going here http://friendfeed.com/dalziel... - Glenn Slaven
You're welcome, thank you for the service. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Yeah, thanks a bunch. The service has been really sweet and very addicting. Kudos. - Jon, the Chilled Beartato
Wow, I just noticed I can moderate comments to this thread. How odd! Looks like I could even delete it. - Daniel J. Pritchett
that is strange Daniel - perhaps a bug of DM'ing large groups of people? - Flickchart
Maybe "delete" just means "remove me from this list". I'll try it on some other less awesome thread. - Daniel J. Pritchett from IM
No, thank YOU! I have spent hours on the site and have over a thousand rankings already. It's a fun site! I can't wait to see the music one!!! - David Cook from email
Thanks Nathan & Jeremy. Flickchart is a great site & the FF integration is especially cool ! - Ahsan Ali aka. Slick
Hello! I'd like to extend a request to see if you've used Flickchart lately. If not, were you just not interested enough to continue using it? Not enough features? If you have used Flickchart lately, what's kept you coming back? Would you have any advice for us to draw you back to the site on a regular basis? Any comments or suggestions are most welcome. Thanks in advance! Appreciate it! - Nathan Chase
For me, I've visited it a few times in the past year (based on when people mention it or you mention there's an update). It's a fun distraction, but I'm not sure what would keep me visiting regularly. My favorite movies of all time don't change that often, and I'm not sure what I can do with that list once I have it other than point it out as an example of what Flickchart does (so, a... more... - Mark Trapp
Honestly, I haven't used it in a long time and it's for two reasons: I began to lose interest once the novelty wore off and I just haven't really had time. I think about it a lot and always think to myself, 'I should spend some time on Flickchart,' but then I see an inbox or feed reader with a ton of unread items, Audrey starts crawling all over me, etc. Plus, since I've been working again, I've not had time for much of anything like this. - Akiva Moskovitz
I pop on fairly often, I guess - a few times a week. But I feel like I spend a lot of time trying to get new adds in place (especially since they all come in right at the middle, which is not too bad if they should be higher, I just rank them a bunch of times, but if they should be lower it's a major pain since it's really hard to move things DOWN on the list), and that feels more like... more... - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
I haven't, but then my love affair with movies has subsided greatly since I graduated film school. It's me, not you. ;) - Derrick
Yeah, I haven't used it in a while. I just haven't been watching as many movies as I used to... for lack of time. However, if I got a question a day from Flickchart in my email, asking me if A was better than B, I might click on it. That's an idea for you... - Ahsan Ali aka. Slick from email
I've been watching more than ever, but I forget to go rank them sometimes (also the ranking individual movies on the three-at-a-time page is less fun - didn't I hear that you were working on a new way to do that?). Ooh, fanciful idea based on Ahsan's comment - integrate with the Netflix RSS feeds or something so when you return a movie Flickchart automatically pops it up to rank. :) - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
I'm never really at my computer when I use flickchart so I guess if I had any feedback (which I haven't thus far because the service has been great!) it would be to perhaps optimize the mobile site for android phones. For me it the site hangs a lot, and I can't actually access the charts on the top. But it's a small criticism as I can still choose what films I like with reckless abandon! :D - Jon, the Chilled Beartato

When I'm sick, I am totally a big baby. When I'm not sick, I'm totally a big baby.

Pretty much. :D - Trish Haley
Consistency is one of the signs of maturity. - MVB (Grinch of FF) from iPod
I was going to say that that is just how men are....but....no wait that is how men are. - Mathew™ one of a kind
Men suck when they are sick...they are big babies..and when men aren't sick....they are big babies. And men love the women that take care of us - Bill Heslin
And that women is my Mom...you all have your wives...I have to stick with my mom...since I can't have my man marry me...Oh well...lol - Bill Heslin
I will keep telling myself that, MVB. ha! - Josh Haley

Dear Ford Motor Company - how can someone have 7+ years experience in "Social and Emerging Media". Youtube (one of the sites mentioned) is only 4 years old.
My dialup BBS experience in 7th grade was emerging and social... and there were door games which means pretty pictures (that's media!). That should give me... *ponder* 27 years experience :D - Michael W. May
ha! :p - Yolanda from IM
I've been blogging since 2001. - Alex Scoble
i've been complaining on the Internet since 1994. - Joe Silence is not Santa
They also mention digg... that one was founded in 2004 as well. - Yolanda from IM
Yep, I've been internetting since 94. I've got 15 years experience. - Yolanda from IM
7+ years in internet time. Though, y'know, sixdegrees.com was founded in 1997... - Andrew C
IRC is certainly social. - Joe Silence is not Santa
Also, Playboy is looking for a "Social Media/Audience Development Manager" Only need 5 to 7 years experience for that one. - Yolanda from IM
I've been on usenet since 1994... well, to be honest, I haven't used it in probably 3-4 years now. - Andrew C
I used Compact Disks when they first came out, AND I talked to my friends about them. That gives me 24 years in social and emerging media. :-) - Slappy Line
I'm waiting for someone looking for experience in social media failure. After all, I am one of only a handful of people who launched blogging products in the first couple years of the decade who never made a dime. :D - Roger Benningfield
Yolanda, I saw a job listing with exactly this kind of problem earlier today. Puts me off of the company altogether since it makes them look out of touch... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
I've been online since 1992, so it's possible to have loads of experience in emerging media. - cecily
Exactly, Tina. If you are going to list specific websites that you want a person to have experience with, at least make the years of experience match up. - Yolanda from IM
I assume they want 7 years of traditional media experience with an ever-increasing share devoted to online and social stuff. Think about it - most of us FFers are small-scale social media whizzes but we're not actually trained or qualified as marketers or community managers or communications directors, are we? - Daniel J. Pritchett
I figured as much. I just think it is funny that they are asking someone to have a minimum of 7 years experience with Youtube, Facebook, and Digg. If I read correctly, none of them were around in 2002. - Yolanda from IM
Maybe you could claim that time spent on multiple social sites is like concurrent prison sentences? - Greg Guitarbuster
hahahaha ++ - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
