Nicholas, I'm not sure about it. Most probably in a few weeks, it seems nobody wants to use this in the US, so maybe we will never launch for UK. Even Turkish people are using it a lot but American friends haven't liked it. We included launching for Iran in our plans.

For 10, I'm not so sure that the 6000 SUX counts as a muscle car.
- Andy Bakun
True, the Ford Thunderbird with supercharger in The Crow is WAY more suited to the title of "muscle car" than the 6000SUX. But I think the latter car exemplifies how OCP did everything in that world -- Big and crappy.

Redskins cornerback says ownership to blame - http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl...
Kenton, Carter Rabasa and RAPatton liked this
"Washington Redskins cornerback Carlos Rogers(notes) has not won himself a lot of fans in the team's front office in the past 24 hours, you can be sure. The team's execs have already got to be pretty frustrated about the team's 2-3 start and then Rogers adds insult to injury by including them in the blame, according to NBCSports. "We've got a lot of things we need to iron out, a lot of problems," Rogers apparently said. "It not only starts with the players, coaches; it starts with the ownership. They bring everybody in and they've got last say-so of everything, so that's where it starts, I guess.""

- Christopher A Carr
They need a coach who is allowed to bench players and select his starters as he may please. Mr. Zorn can't even pick his starting RG. Management says Mr. Williams who has been out of football for 4 years must start, he starts. It starts at the top IMO.

"California's education system has become so poor so quickly that it is now effectively failing its future workforce.

I love it! It's made me start blogging again after almost two years of sporadic posts. The FB/FF merger made me rethink my sharing and where I store my posts, and Posterous helped that out a lot. I use it as a backup for my blog almost, but it's still the primary tool of how I post things now. Posterous goes to WordPress, which then goes to Facebook and FriendFeed (and through FF to Twitter.) My posting habits haven't changed, just where the content lives.

I just spend today setting up Posterous to post to several of my profiles. Still learning to use it though. Another is ProfileFly that I'm playing with too.

I'm pretty much open - the easiest, simplest, with most opt in/outs is my winner. I'm also watching the SEO activity.

Moooooona you can tell it how and where to autopipe. Problem is is you have other services set to autopoast when you autopost then you tripple post :(

Pixelpipe
- Matthew DeVries
Matthew, Pixelpipe's great - works with your existing services and doesn't try to create anything new
- Jesse Stay
Precisely, and it doesn't leash you to emailing content. I like how Posterous tries to be smart and make your stuff look it's best, but emailing all the content in? No apps? May as well ask me to publish content via candy gram.
- Matthew DeVries
It has a great Bookmarklet that works well. I am just getting into Posterous and so far I like it.
- Robert Couture
Posterous is great, but an aggregator it is not. It's sort of a reverse aggregator.

How's Posterous compared to Ping.fm?

Does Posterous munge up data you send to it, and, how does it handle categories and tags? Does it transfer those correctly to all its targets?
- Rick Cogley
Posterous is awesome! really love it. I got an invite last year, and am really happy it took off - yay!

I wanted to "like" the entry associated with the ScriptingNews RSS feed. But FF hasn't pulled it in yet. Of course, the Tweet got posted almost instantly. So I guess I'll just "like" this :)

Some of us (me, @heykim, @thanatos_rises, @drslimpepper, etc.) are wondering if this is the real Danny DeVito. @heykim: "where is SHERIFF @Alyssa_Milano when i need her :)"

How Not To Do Things: Redskins Suing Over 100 Fans | Techdirt - http://techdirt.com/article...
Carter Rabasa, Shevonne and Joel Webber liked this
"...the Washington Redskins have sued well over 100 season ticket holders, after those fans faced financial hardship and were unable to pay up for new season tickets, despite having signed long-term contracts at some point..." "...Meanwhile, the local baseball team, the Nationals, refuses to sue fans, and notes that it's pretty simple to deal with people who fail to live up to their contract: you take away their tickets and resell them. And, just for comparison purposes, we're talking about the Nationals, who are averaging one of the lowest average attendance rates in all of baseball. Compare that to the Redskins, who have a stunning record of selling out every home game since 1968. In other words, if anyone had a reason to go after those not paying, it would be the Nationals. The Redskins can easily resell the tickets...And... actually, it is reselling those tickets for a nice profit while still collecting huge cash awards from those who couldn't pay..."

I think any organization that has an antagonistic relationship with its own customers is doomed to failure eventually.
- Joel Webber
People always want Redskins tickets, so it's sad that they are doing that
- Shevonne
Some people defend Dan Snyder on the grounds that this is "just business". I see his behavior as mortgaging his team's popularity and loyalty in the future to line his pockets today. He is killing the goose that laid the golden egg.

10 Successful Facebook Business Pages - http://www.penn-olson.com/2009...
Carter Rabasa, Ritu and Jason Huebel liked this
"With Facebook launching its redesigned pages for businesses early this year, many have flocked into the social media site, hoping to leverage this free function to increase their online presence. And expectedly, not all pages turned out to be successful. In fact, most turned out to be disastrous. So, how do we define a successful page? And which are the businesses that made it? Although many of us believe in quantitative measures, the number of fans is definitely not the only yardstick to measure a page’s success. In my opinion, a successful Facebook page needs to be engaging, updated and rewar"
