I had a professor read the last lecture as part of his retirement; it's definitely a good read. It's so sad to see Pausch go.
- Mark Trapp
It's so Sad! He made our world richer with is intelligence and good humor. I wish all the best to their kids.
- Fernando
I am so happy I got to interview him. One of my favorites!
- Robert Scoble
I just looked back on my blog from meeting him: http://scobleizer.com/2006... -- interesting that he had a big impact on me even back then.
- Robert Scoble
Really very sad. I saw his last lecture and was very impressed. Always hoped, he would get through this...
- Matthias Schwenk
So sad - he gave one of the great speeches of all time and in such an unassuming, selfless way. I'm glad his kids will at least have that to treasure.
- JMaultasch
An inspiration to many. He will be missed
- Tim Finucane
One of the finest. Some people are great a reminding us how to live, mainly by example. He was one of them. His web page doesn't seem to be loading..does anyone see where we can leave thoughts for his family and friends?
- Loren Heiny
A real loss. I never met him (obviously) but I know of him through the eyes of those who did.

The book was amazing.
- Steve Rubel
Fuck. fuckfuckfuckfuck. Randy was one of my favorite HCI teachers at CMU, and I'm so glad that his 'Last Lecture' got the world-wide attention that it did. I can't imagine being as brave as him in this place, and he fought off the cancer for about 6 months longer than the 4 months his doctors gave him. Even though I've known this was coming for months it's still really hard.
- Kevin Fox
I keep putting off the book, which is ironically exactly the opposite of what I should be doing: moving forward and living life instead of treading water and letting life happen. Peace to you, Randy.
- Kevin C. Tofel
I'm very sad but will always be inspired by the way he spent his last several months.
- Dimitrios Diamantaras
I was a huge fan of Randy's; his work will live on far longer than this in the lives of those he influenced.
- Aaron Krug
i love the "bedside conversion" line...
- Don Martelli
from twhirl
Inspirational. Will be watching his video many times throughout my life. Brave, wise man...
- Hao Chen
What better way to go than knowing that you made every day count and that you touched the lives of so many people around the world! Even though his departure is a huge loss, we are blessed with the inspiration he leaves us with!
- Gabriel Biguria
I'm going to order the book, finally.
- Roberto Bonini
He understood life and therefore death. He was attached to what was important in life, not to life itself. He was proof of the fact that scientists and engineers are the most spiritual of people. My thoughts are with his family - I hope they know how many are thinking of them today.

I think I can see why they dried up the channel a month ago. Nobody can complain they *just bought* a $399 iPhone.
- Kevin Fox
The contract lasts your lifetime and the lifetime of your children though. Gotta read the small print.

- Ken Sheppardson

- Alexander Marktl
wonder if this involves a rebate
- Nicholas Molnar
I want one of these.
- Andre Heinrichs
no rebates - sounds like that's the price
- Frederic
If only the service wasn't twice as much as what I pay for exactly the same thing. Sprint gives me 3G, unlimited data, unlimited text for $30 / month. The only thing that sucks is I'm using Windows Mobile and not an iPhone :(
- Benjamin Golub
Reminder: 199 USD that is 126 EUR.
- Lars Trieloff
@Ben That includes voice??
- Cyndy
Cyndy; yup, $30 gets me 500 minutes, 7pm nights and weekends free, unlimited data/text see here: http://delivery.sprint.com/m...

Push Notification Service announced
Stoyan Zhekov, Kevin Shannon, Graham Garland and 18 other people liked this
maintain a persistant IP connection right to the phone, push their notifications through apple to your application
- MG Siegler
appear just like SMS messages now appear
- MG Siegler
sounds like a decent solution - not sure it will make all devs happy
- Frederic
it scales to many 3rd party services, but only one persistant connection needed
- MG Siegler
Every notification has to go through Apple?
- Andre Heinrichs
Did anyone else just think Twitter-Inside?
- Kevin D. White
@andre - sounds like it - single point of failure anybody?
- Frederic
avail in sept. developers get it early next month
- MG Siegler
This is great. Btw. Twitter is down.
- Lars Trieloff
works over wifi and cell network
- MG Siegler
this is absolutely the best way to implement this.
- Sam Pullara
Will it work on iPod Touch?
- Andre Heinrichs
listening to the audiofeed from wwdc. Why do people clap at every word Steve says? =)
- Davide D'Incau
This is *creepy*, so now Apple isn't just the gateway to get all apps, it's also the sole conduit for these update messages? The single point of failure and the place for the gov't to go? Hrm... may be good technology, but it does raise some concerns...
- felix
How will this work with somnething like chat? Instead of the chap app directly going and getting, now the developer has to set up a server to pull all chats and funnel those through Apple?
- felix
hm, so Apple will have working Comet until September?
- Stoyan Zhekov
yep, smart move.
- Graham Garland
@felix yes, that is the way it would work. presumably most chat apps will be built by the chat service themselves and this won't be an additional server at all.
