There are so many types of middle-men in this world... real estate agents, agents in the entertainment industry, independent recruiters etc.. In ten years from know is it imaginable that we would have exchanges on the internet that would eliminate the need for them or do middle men add inherent value to the transaction that machines cannot.

We have exchanges on the internet now that reduce or eliminate the need for a lot of the layers, but as long as people value human interaction and sales people are better at selling than a computer can be, then we will need human layers.
- Alex Scoble
Sadly, a lot of people were saying the same thing 10 years ago...
- Tudor Bosman
from Android
Alex, yes human interaction is valuable but the machine has other advantages - scale, distribution and objectivity. Tudor, agree we were saying that 10 years ago but I think the world moves more slowly than most geeks assume it will.. After all recently have everyday people adopted the internet in a big way to publish etc
- Bindu Reddy
A machine is only as objective as those who control it.
- Alex Scoble
I think the recent bubble bursting will accelerate the downsizing in the name of efficiency and productivity plus phone mail hell has trained consumers that human interaction is not necessary...
- WarLord
Phone system hell has trained consumers that poor human interaction isn't necessary. Companies that serve their customers well will continue to be rewarded.
- Alex Scoble
the most successful people don't try and do everything themselves they find others who are successful and work with them, like a celebrity who has their own nutritionist, personal trainer, pr person, etc if you try to do everything yourself you won't get as far, it's better to focus on what you are good at, i mean, if you were hungry would you make your own bread or would you buy it from the store, middle men exist for that reason they save us time and money, outsourcing is a booming industry
- Loc
The web has eliminated some, but created others.
- LogEx
The two most constant trends in the history of business are disintermediation and reintermediation. As soon as we replace travel agents with sites like Travelocity and Expedia, up pop paid services where experienced users get paid to help you find the bargains.
- Stephen Mack
@Loc I don't mean to suggest you should do everything yourself...All I am saying would the world be better if consumers dealt with producers directly. I am suggesting that there would be exchanges which would eliminate middle-men. Expedia is a great example of such a thing. Today you ideally don't call a travel agent to book tickets to NYC. You or your personal assistant would use Expedia.
- Bindu Reddy
@Stephen yes but the # of middle men did go down right? There were a lot more travel agents before compared to the experienced ppl who found tickets?
- Bindu Reddy
Isn't Expedia just another middle man?
- Brian Sullivan
Yes but it is one exchange that eliminates the need for 100s of small "exchanges" primarily because it mostly uses machines to connect travellers to airlines. I am not so sure we can eliminate exchanges...
- Bindu Reddy
Bindu, yes, but your original post said "eliminate." :)

So it it just a more efficient centralized middle man? There will always be a need to aggregate information, services and products. The web makes it more efficient in some ways but not fundamentally different.
- Brian Sullivan
We'll always have middlemen. What they look like might change, but we'll always have them. And some of them will -always- be lawyers and agents. They represent a class of middlemen that is necessary due to expertise.
- Soup
If everyone is somewhere on the circumference of the circle, and none are at the center, then in effect there are no middlemen (or to look at it another way: everyone is a middleman to a degree). Will the network ever decentralize that completely? Don't know.
- Micah Wittman
Also, exchanges are not necessarily preferred even if they are more efficient, particularly from the consumer point of view. Exchanges may excel at anti-consumer behaviors such as filtering results to benefit certain organizations, or maximizing pricing (e.g., airlines).
- LogEx
When consumers talk to producers (or those paid on commission) the consumer needs to know as much as they can about the product or risk being grossly oversold. In the case of things like houses, it is almost never a good idea to only look into it yourself. Hell, most people don't even know why granite is the "in" thing. Going to a middle-man gets you years of experience and knowledge on your side.
- Heather
Stephen Mack - sure...I guess I ought to append that :)
- Bindu Reddy
Heather, I agree that the consumer needs to know a lot of things before making a decision. The exchange technically is supposed to give that kind of information. take real estate for example - Red Fin gives you data like - how many days in the market, average cost of price sold in your area etc. In many cases the "experienced agents' are looking up the same kind of information from similar sources. That said I am not discounting all experience in every industry.
- Bindu Reddy
if you are subject matter expert why have a middle man. if you only know enough to get your self in trouble a middle man will save you from some unknown *risks*. The worst things is when I educate someone *Middle man*, and than they decide they don`t need me because know they Know.
- Robert Higgins
Some middle men are there for efficiency, such as your local grocery store. It's better and cheaper for us all for them to bring all the different items we need in one spot until we need them. As oppose to us needing to go out to the country to pick up milk, fresh produce etc.

Alexey, Yaroslav Nikolaev, Iddo Friedberg and 5 other people liked this
How big of files are you thinking about?
- Holly Rae, FFer
Hell yes. For me, photos -> flickr, audio -> divshare, video -> youtube/vimeo, PDF's -> Mendeley/scribd and google docs for various other bits 'n bobs.
- Graham Steel
SlideShare, SciVee (vids), Scribd (pdfs), Flickr, YouTube, lots of GoogleDocs and Wikispaces will take up to 10Meg misc files
- Jean-Claude Bradley
favorites are dropbox (good file sync) box.net (webdav standard support) drop.io (quick, easy) and wuala (free limit is high). specialized storage by file type such as flickr for images or gdocs for docs is also a good option, and there are some utilities that can help synchronize with these services
- Mike Chelen
Google docs for documents, Mozy for backup, dropbox for sync across computers
- Pedro Beltrao
Junlgedisk for archival, dropbox for "hot" content.

- Miss Elle
Allan, I use vanilla S3 for all my podcasts in combination with Cloudfront for edge delivery.
- Deepak Singh
Dropbox for a collaborative document share. Wiggio.com for inter-institutional share and collaboration tool. I belong to a group that uses a pogoplug, too, which has been a boon (the trick is where to host it).

JungleDisk on the Mac - off-site backups of docs + family photos

Good, it would save me the trouble of having to look to see if something comes from Murdoch's entities. I doubt this will actually happen, though.

Sorry but most people won't even realize that News Corp content is missing. People will search and they'll find other sites. Sorry, the unibrow of the web wins.

Only way to make money from your content is to control it from the beginning. News Corp gave it away in several ways on the internet, including allowing Google search to go through their websites. Now that it has happened, if they choose to close off key avenues of information to go out to the users that are now used to getting their information a certain way, will backfire beyond...

One word, "Antitrust." Or is that two words? The bulk Twitter feed apparently was not available to the public or it would have already been searched by Google. If content is available to the public now for free, I don't know how you are going to exclude some member of the public (Google) from accessing that content without creating a legal problem.

- Victor Ganata
I think Rupert should do it. Not because I want see News Corp. die (sorry all) but because they have a right to control their content, and he is probably right about the fact that losing readership to actually paying subs is more worth it in the end. Plus, if google had to pay Twitter for content, why shouldn't Google pay for their content which *is* worth MUCH more (whether we like it or not)

Jason get rich by flux, it doesn't matter to him who wins, as long as there is change, upheaval and instability. Flat markets are Satan that he must fight.

Unfollowing someone on Twitter is the most underhanded, cowardly way of signaling the end of a friendship. That's what email's for.
Rob Michael (Atmos Trio), MG Siegler and Roberto Bonini liked this
Some times I unfollow because I'm following them elsewhere already. Also, accidents happen occasionally - my service offers auto-unfollow based on certain keywords in DMs that individuals set on their own. Hopefully you're whitelisted by that individual, but occasionally accidents do happen. :-) If they're a friend, might be worth approaching them to find out why they unfollowed?
- Jesse Stay
Unfollowing == ending a friendship? Must be a new age definition of friendship I guess.
- Brian Sullivan
There needs to be a way to allow certain people to DM you without following them. I'd like to put all my friends into lists, for example, and read them that way instead of having them in my main Twitter feed (aka followed).

Same as Jesse, If I unfollow them it is usually because I am seeing them twice.

switching to aicc from scorm because of java issues misplaces blame. java is in no way required for scorm.
Just practicality - not assigning blame maybe? In the beginning (before xmlhttp) the only practical way to implement SCORM was by using a Java applet to do the SCO to server communication so many LMS providers used that process and have stuck with it.
- Brian Sullivan
All using AICC does though is put the responsibility for lesson to LMS communication on the lesson rather than the server so all the same problems might follow. I guess at least then the control of the process is in the hands of the lesson creator rather than some faceless, powerless IT and purchasing person running and purchasing the LMS.

Actually, the Internet may be about the incarnation of cosmic consciousness, and may not be primarily about anthropocentric intraspecies communication.

No dice. according to this blog: "NOTE: Unfortunately, Twitter has stated that they will no longer allow animated avatars to be uploaded to their site. If you already have one, NEVER change your avatar or you won’t be able to make a new one. They grandfathered those who already had it, so if you have one, you can keep it, but if you don’t, you’re out of luck" http://www.tiffanydow.com/blog...

- Ozkan Altuner
@Paul the Closure project has three components: compiler, library, and template language. Looks like the Closure/library might be competing with jQuery.
- Shakeel Mahate
this is sweet!
- Jay
I think jQuery does a lot of stuff that might confuse the compiler, e.g. iterating over an array of string function names and creating new function wrappers (look at the way the parent/child/next/prev/etc functions get installed) The Closure library is also full of type annotations that help the compiler make better optimization choices, so you're likely to get a better compiled outcome using Closure than jQuery + fixes + compiler

Congratulations to the team (and @Paul & Jing) -- I know everyone's been waiting a long time for this. For anyone considering whether to use jQuery vs Closure, consider that they're meant for largely different purposes. jQuery's good for enhancing static web pages; Closure's much better at building large apps. And as Ray points out above, Closure the library is going to get much better results from Closure the compiler than an arbitrary js library would, because of all the type annotations.

There's huge focus on the fact that Hasan is Muslim (lets call it what it is - racial profiling). Does anybody know the religious affiliation of the Oklahoma City bombers? The shooter at Virginia Tech? The sniper pair who terrorized DC? Jeffrey Dahmer? I didn't think so. Case closed.
Maxamad (Amazigh), Victor Ganata, VAL D. and 3 other people liked this
Racial Profiling? Isn't that when you suspect someone of intent to commit a crime based on distinguishing features? Pretty sure this is a tad past intent. And I assume the others you mention were all Protestants except Dahmer who obviously was Roman Catholic.
- MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
Yes, you presume. But did you focus on the fact that Dahmer was Catholic? Probably not. Did you gravitate to the fact that Hasan is Muslim, and immediately draw your own conclusions? Probably. The very fact that you presume the crime was committed based on distinguishing features places you smack in the middle of the racial profiler camp. Yep, you're one of them, live with it.
- jcunwired
And you assume that I knew, or care, about the religious affiliations, or the ethnic background, of someone I never knew existed until such time as he had committed a crime. I should have clarified my point, jc. This is not racial profiling, it is racism. So, I guess I'm one of them. Have a wonderful weekend.
- MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
Did the McVey commit his act in the name of his religion? Did the Va. Tech shooter? The DC snipers? That's the difference. (not saying whether Ft. Hood shootings were about religion, just asking us to compare apples to apples).
- Craig Eddy
Case NOT closed, Sorry. The guy is still alive. The case will continue, like it or not.
- Morgan Haley

- Matthew DeVries
and religion is NOT the same as race. so it's not racial profiling, sorry. Religious profiling? Maybe. But don't mix religion and race, because that's what all the profilers have been doing to this point. Don't be stupid and assume they are the same thing, because they are not.
- Morgan Haley
Guy Fawkes was Catholic, famously so. And Hasan did scream a Muslim battle cry (though used for other things as well) as he was shooting, so you know, that kind of draws away from whole non-relgiousness of it.
- Matthew DeVries
DC sniper was muslim, btw.
- Dave Roth
Stupid is as stupid does. Evil is as evil does. What if all of these people has irritable bowel syndrome? Would that matter? No. But having shit trouble is almost enough to make people snap.

- jcunwired
Dang, Morgan. You don't see anything wrong with screaming "God is great" as you mow down your supposed comrades in cold blood? Dude...
- Joey Gibson
@Joey – One could probably find Christian examples of the same. Christian or Muslim, it's hard to tell how much is motivated by religion and how much by other factors. In this case, we ought to wait for more information to become public before coming to conclusions about it.
- John (a.k.a. dendroica)
I said nothing in my response about the attacker being Muslim. And yes, I'm sure you could find examples of Christian yelling similar things while doing horrid deeds. Again, not the point. I was simply asking Morgan if he didn't think there was something wrong with screaming "God is great" while murdering those around you.

Apparently you can only upload 3 mp3 files per day (I am guessing per 24 hour period) -- at least that is what the message I got seems to imply. It gives you this message at the end of the upload process -- and you have to wait until the quota is replenished ( though you have no way of knowing when that would be unless you remember when all the upload attempts happened).

I had some issues uploading .mp3s a while ago (finally just sent them to Posterous and had done with it) - Paul, is there a file size limit? The ones I had were encoded at like 320kpbs, so they were about 9 or 10mb. The smaller ones I did (4-5mb) seemed to have a greater success rate, but I couldn't really test because of the upload limit that counted the failed ones against me.
- Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
From what I can tell, the upload problems are caused by S3 errors (we store the files using Amazon S3). I've put in a little more logging and more retries. If you still have trouble uploading files, post the filename and I'll investigate.
- Paul Buchheit
What is really happening during that "processing" cycle? The "upload" part appears to work -- at least the progress bar and time taken is in line with the size of the file. For me it is the "processing" part that has failed.

The "upload" part is uploading to the FriendFeed servers. The "processing" part is the FriendFeed server uploading to Amazon S3, which is where there are sometimes problems.
