"Kids are what's all about. Mine are getting older, but on this day I'm always reminded how lucky I am to have them - and what an incredible responsibility we ALL share: to make theirs a better world. Merry Christmas to you and yours, Chris."

"I understand that you're conflicted, but If moderating comments on legacy posts is interfering with your ability to create new content, your decision feels like a bit of a "no-brainer"."

"As a card-carrying "early adopter", I really like what Facebook Connect has to offer. That being said, I think you're right on the money with respect to the confusion associated with the service. This should serve as a reminder to those of us on "the front lines" - that when it comes to new tools, we need to pay close attention to how people use (and understand) them in the real world."

"Another benefit of "Paid": When talented people can make money by being smart and funny on the Web, the quantity (and quality!) of the content will soar."

"Chris, You are, again, right on the money. Too often, people fail to consider the ramifications before "reaching out and touching someone". I would add "overcommenting" to the list. When someone posts a comment, I feel compelled to respond - and when that becomes a "chore", it tempers the way I feel about the commenter."

"Hey Thomas, That's me - it signifies the birth of my foray into the world of social media! By the way - GREAT JOB on the Tumblr customization! (Thomas designed this site.)"

"Chris, This post, to me, is more than a simple "rant" - It's an example of what I believe to be the most inspiring thing about the '2010 Web'; the continuing shift of power from corporations to consumers. If I were a Subway franchisee, I'd make sure that every one of my employees was aware of the fact that their next customer might be a guy with 90,000 Twitter followers."

"As someone who negotiated radio contracts with big media companies for 20 + years, I can assure you that if there is any mention of the company name (or media brand) in the Twitter username, they will the battle. Who wins the "war" is another question altogether..."

"Hey Chris, I liked the post - your voice sounded great - but didn't like the fact that the file forced iTunes to open. (Which also meant I had to delete it after I listened to it.) Overall review: content good, delivery system ... not so much. B."
