+1 "mobile location-aware services and advertising". Paul can you share your sources of statistics for "Fifty percent of Nokia phones will have GPS by 2010, 100 percent of Apple phones will have GPS by July 11th, 2008, and so on." summary. - Erhan Erdogan
for the nokia one, i just googled, it's a public stat. for apple.. well that's easy, they only offer the iphone and iphone 2.0 comes out july 11th and will have gps. - Paul Stamatiou
I don't follow her here or on twitter. Refuse to inflate the ego with +1ness - Andrea Baker
Robert, IMHO I'd be more indulgent with people looking to gather their friends more than with those looking for new antennas. But, hey! It's your choice :) - directeur via NoiseRiver
pcnerd: it most certainly is. If we don't stomp down noise then all we will be left with is noise. - Robert Scoble
I was being tongue-in-cheek: it's interesting to see how newcomers interact with rules, cliques, and traditions in an established network. - Mark Trapp
Mark, did you block me? : ) (that s my new silly question:) - Erhan Erdogan
If I blocked you, you wouldn't be able to comment on my feed item. - Mark Trapp
Why do some people feel they need to brandish blocking someone like a club or some bloody trophy like a scalp. If you feel the need just do it and get on to something that feeds your mind. - Mark Forman
I unsubscribed from her this morning. She had only 1 like and no comments since she signed up. Besides, I was tired of seeing her twitter entries here. - Alejandro S.
I'm always subscribing to you, but after some times, it writes "Subscribe" in your box. : ) What the hell problem, I don't know. : ) - Erhan Erdogan
I agree with Mark Forman. I prefer it when people keep their blocking activity on the down low. - Mike Doeff
Forman: because I have been participating in online communities since the 1980s. If I don't speak up against this kind of noise it will just take root. - Robert Scoble
Mike when I am blocking jerks I keep it quiet. Here I am trying to change behavior AND start a conversation. - Robert Scoble
Robert: I agree I think that the crowds tend to ruin things.. the internet was a lot more fun in the early days when it was just geeks - Joel Smith
@Robert: haha at first I thought you were rude and elitist but now I see your point - Mona N via fftogo
Robert, I will refer you Leo's quote about 10% of everything being of great quality. If you aren't willing to give people a chance, you will miss a great portion of that 10% under the assumption that it is crap. There are many diamonds in the rough out there if you are willing to spend the time to pick them out of the "noise". Justine has millions of fans and that can't be by pure coincidence . - pcnerd37
like: @bbluesman comment though it is a bit graphic mark ;) - mike "glemak" dunn
Robert, I didn't mean to single you out. This is a good topic for discussion because it seems that there are some very different opinions about the etiquette of blocking. Some people are using it as a noise filter and others are using it as a last resort to get rid of trolls and griefers. Very different use cases. - Mike Doeff
pcnerd: it isn't a permanent block. Only two days. I still see blocked people's stuff in everyone tab anyway. - Robert Scoble
At least it's not permanent but if you aren't what's the point in doing it in the first place Robert, especially for Justine who has a ton of followers just like you. - Corvida
I keep my RSS feeds to about 150. But I put a lot of effort into what I select, I focus on subscribing to the blogs/feeds that are at the very middle of what I want to track. Basically trying to find the blogs that everyone else gets their information from and then links to on their posts (ie TechCrunch for web 2 startups). - Tony
Thanks Tony! :) And how much time in average does it take for you to refresh them all? - directeur via NoiseRiver
I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I am getting over the 250 mark. Maybe it's time to start pruning, especially since I am noticing a lot of duplication since I subscribe to a lot of memes such as FriendfeedLinks, RSSmeme and others. - Mark O'Neill
Thanks Mark :) I'm actually doing a little study to find out how much time your newsreaders take to fetch the news. I myself, I'm subscribed to 49 feeds :) - directeur via NoiseRiver
177 but I need to do some pruning which I hope that my lil project with Feedly, Toluu, and Google Reader will help take care of. - Mathew A. Koeneker
I have around 135 or 150 in google reader. refresh times within reader are mostly just a few seconds. I tend not to keep it open all day though. - Rob Diana
I don't keep Google Reader open all the time. But I've noticed that it tends to pick up new blog posts pretty fast. - Mark O'Neill
About 250 right now and dropping. I use Google Reader, so it varies how long it takes to refresh, mostly very fast for popular feeds. - Michael Hocter
I've never count them, probably more than 100. I use the iGoogle page to manage all the feeds. I don't like RSS readers. - fbrunel
fbrunel: yes but Google reader won't refresh automatically when you login. You can't refresh at all I think. They fetch when they think it's time to - directeur via NoiseRiver
What do you mean when you say "refresh them all"? I have mine set to check for updates every 30 mins when the app is open. But with Newswire (app desktop RSS on Mac) it could check them all every 5 mins for updates. - Tony
Tony, I for example use NetNewsReader. By refresh them all I meant the time it takes for the newsreader to go on all feeds and fetch them. The question in a clearer way (sorry my English's poor) when It updates how much time this update takes? - directeur via NoiseRiver
Oh, it takes anywhere from 30 secs to 2 mins to check them all for updates in my case (150 feeds). - Tony
921 feeds in Google Reader. Can't really tell how long it takes to refresh them all since I put them into folders. But my guess is perhaps 5-10 seconds for them all. Never get a delay of more than a few seconds though. - Mike Reynolds
Wow! 921? That's big! Thanks Mike for the info :) - directeur via NoiseRiver
Near two weeks I have only 1 feed. : ) That's my FF! But I think I don't miss anything. ; ) - Erhan Erdogan
Erhan! :) How do you do? Haven't seen much of you lately - directeur via NoiseRiver
I'm holidayicing my life! ; ) I'm only creating some new documents for some venture capital companies ; ) Want to have some money? : )) - Erhan Erdogan
Oh yes I need money! I need money! How much? Actually any amount is nice :) - directeur via NoiseRiver
and also "an exit strategy" heheh : )) - Erhan Erdogan
Oh! Have to write documents for money? Forget about it! ;-) - directeur via NoiseRiver
Oww. : ) You should be an American Ganster : ) We must meet soon. : ) - Erhan Erdogan
Some of you are crazy with the feeds. I subscribe to 30 or so, but I keep my list very tight. Any extra feeds will amount to extra time wasted reading through them. Updates or refreshes for my GoogleReader or NNR (as I use both) take no longer than a 20 seconds at most. - Colby Olson
Thanks Colby :) I actually read about 49 in my desktop reader too. And surprisingly it doesn't take that much (30 sec) to refresh 'em all - directeur via NoiseRiver
Good idea, having three different commenting profiles is just ridiculous. On the other hand it keeps certain companies from owning all the comments on the internet... - Czar Derek Peterman
I think each service has its strengths, but yes there are a lot of similar features. - Shey

FF3 shit! : ( I am really afraid of losing enthusiasm for mozilla. - Erhan Erdogan
wow!.. calling the latest outcome of history's one of the most complex open source projects, 'shit' is a bold move. Well, I wonder what names you call for others, IE?, Safari?, Opera?... [ I have some names for 'em too :) ] - Berk D. Demir
I had that for a while to and didn't know what it was. For me, the zoom on the page was set to one below normal. Hit CTRL+0 in FF to reset the zoom to 100% and see if that works. - Nick Munson
@Nick, yes this is reproducable with Firefox 3.0 on OS X with second "zoom out" level. No problem with Safari. Gecko layout engine get's confused about Friendfeed, CSS based rounded tab button hack. - Berk D. Demir via twhirl
yeah, i reproduced it by changing zoom... ctrl +/- to overcome it... You've probably changed the zoom unintentionally.. It's not a defect. - Kemal Yaylali
like yerine başka bir fonksyon olsaydi keşke bu haber için. gerçekten üzgünüm. türkiye son dönem sanat ve sanatçılara karşı kemerine bir yeni çentik daha eklemiş oldu. deviantart profillerinden çıkıp national geographic dahil ödüllere ve tanınırlığa sahip olmanın bedeli bu olmamalı. - elif kavalci
Tutuklanması ve işinden uzaklaştırılması çok uçuk. Diyelim ki, fotoğrafını çektiği insanlar veya yakınları rahatsız oldu, şikayette bulundu. Elbet bir çözümü olmalıydı ama tutuklama ne yahu?. İlla yasadışı olduğu söyleniyorsa tazminatı da içeren para cezası ver gitsin. İçeri almak nedir ya? - Kemal Yaylali
Kendisine gerçekten komplo kuruldu ama neden hala anlamıyorum. Özelliklede basın yargısız infaz yaptı. Kendisini çok yakından tanıyan bir sürü arkadaşım var ve hiç kimse anlam veremiyor. Suçlama unsuru olan fotoğraflar fotomontaj ve çok kötü montajlanmış üstelikte. Kendi çekimlerinde kullandığı tüm modellere, model sözleşmesi imzalatmı. Hatta model sözleşmesi nedir ne değildir bilmezken, onun fotokritik.com'daki köşesinde yayınlaması sonrasında öğrenmiştim. Bu işte bir iş var ama hadi hayırlısı... - Okan
Allah, Allah cok ilginc. En kotusu boyle giderse bu tip haberlere sasirma yetimizi kaybedecegiz. - Turker Keskinpala

Hamdolsun! ;-) Yarın görüşürüz Yusuf ; ) - Erhan Erdogan
@Erhan felsefi duygularımı insan sevgim ile çoşturdun. Sağolasın :) Yarın güzel bir gün olacak. Ömer'e beni sormuşsun. Merak ettim, heyecan yaptım ;) - Yusuf İBİLİ
Seni sana sorarım yarın, felsefeden girmişsen ; ) Merak ettim, gitmediysen görüşelim diyecektim. Kalmışsın ne güzel : ) - Erhan Erdogan
Bildiğin gibi yemeksepeti'nde ki üstlendiğim proje de üstüne titriyoruz. Cuma gidiş diye beklerken bugün toplantı da Nevzat ve Cem Bey arkadaşlar Salı'ya kadar da buradasınız deyince bende tatlı bir gülümseme ve tebessüm oldu. :) Aslında biraz tuhaf olduk o an, sonra Cem Bey'e söyleyince detayları hepimiz sevindik tabi. Ama en çok ben. ;) Çok istiyordum kalmayı ve olması ayrı bir mutluluk. Yarın bol bol konuşuruz, benim de sana soracağım o kadar güzel şeyler var ki.. - Yusuf İBİLİ
@Tunççççççççççç Kıllllllllııııınnççççççççç'a sor ona sor ona sor - dağlara sor çöle sor bir tekkk bana sorma ona sorr : ))) Gitsen de Konya'da bulurdum ki seni, ben bi' ordayım bi' burda, napacağız yeri yurdu şu fani dünyada. : ))))) - Erhan Erdogan
Tunç'un ellerinden öpmek gerek. Cidden. Hayata anlam katan yazıları, deneyimleri ve etkinlikleri ile bizleri düşünmeye yöneltiyor ve birbirimize bağlıyor. - Yusuf İBİLİ
Bak ya, üşenmemiş yazmış. Alacağın olsun Tunç, öpmüyoruz elinden. :) Bu arada kaç kişi olduk toplamda ? Gördüğüm ortak yorum "mekana sığabilecek miyiz?" - Yusuf İBİLİ
Yusuf sen konuşma hazırlasana yarın için nolurrr bak : )))) Girişin bu yazdıkların olsun, ama ne olur : ))) - Erhan Erdogan
Sir yarın için aradığımız şey bu olabilir mi? Herkes 1 dakikalık günün anlam ve önemini belirten konuşma yapsın masanın başına geçip ; ) (Yusuf senin metin hazır ama:)) Veya günü de geçelim, 1 dakika içinde geleceğini bir yıl sonrasını, hayallerindeki yaşamı, vs.. bir konu bulalım?! - Erhan Erdogan
Ben konuşurum yeri gelir konuşmaya teşvik ederim. Sorun değil. İçimde ki felsefe tüm taksime yeter :) Bence Tunç bir akış belirlemeli. Hadi höp mezeler geldi yumulun rakı ya balığa olursa ben daha Erhan'ı Ömer'i göremeden doyamadan hesap gelir kendimizden geçeriz. Herkes kendini tanıtsın ve vakit olursa kısaca düşüncelerini mutlaka aktarsın diyorum. - Yusuf İBİLİ
Serbest tanımak lazım Yusuf, ismin mesleğin ne önemi var : )) - Erhan Erdogan
@Erhan 1 dk fazla olabilir. Güncel listeye baktığımızda (http://www.fikiratolyesi.com/2...) 80'den fazla kişi olduğunu görüyoruz. Ha bunu 90'a tamamlarsak ve devre arası verirsek maç havasında götürebiliriz :) - Yusuf İBİLİ
Abi serbet olsun buna karşı geldiğim yok :) Herkes kendine göre takılsın, tanıtsın işte. Tunç daha iyi bilir ben bilmem! Biz beraberiz :) - Yusuf İBİLİ
Erhan sen içmeden böyle çoşuyosan, içince nolucak görücez akşama :) Yusuf iyi olmuş kaldığın, herkesi aynı anda aradan çıkarırsın. - Harun Pekşen
"One question for Ear-a-round is whether it can be made cheaper than fencing. At $600 a cow, that is not obviously yet so. Dr Rus, however, is working on getting the price of the hardware down to the $100 that farmers will pay. Meanwhile Dr Anderson is about to start working out how many cows actually need to be fitted with Ear-a-rounds to control an entire herd. He hopes that, by identifying a herd’s leaders and fitting out them alone, this number can be reduced to a handful." - Paul Buchheit via Bookmarklet
That's just calling out for a good WiFi hotspot caption, but I've got nothing. - Ken Sheppardson
Of course, once you put this thing on the head of a herd leader all the other cows will laugh at him. Maybe it can be concealed under a top-hat. - Ethan Jewett via twhirl
Oh. I pictured virtual cows mooing 'en garde!' - Andy Wibbels
This is less sophisticated technology than an iPhone. I'm sure with an AT&T subsidy they can get the cost to $199 per cow (with 2 year contract). Seriously, though, this has other implications -- changes in movement could be provide diagnostics for cattle illness (moving slowly, not roaming as far, etc.), or telemetry could be added (temperature, heartbeat)... whole "cattle drives" could be conducted over the web... at least until the hackers break in and steer your herd onto an interstate... :-D - Karim
Paul - lol "just like people." so there are cow "influentials?" - Karim
erhan'a soracak ne buluyorsunuz ki? : ) - tunc kilinc
@tunc gel kahve içelim diyecektim. @yusuf bana seni sordu erhan :) - Ömer Enis
Erhan beni mi sordu? :) E hayırlara gelsin, ne dedi ki? Yarın tanışacağız, kaynaşacağız zaten. Aslında rakı-balık bahane paylaşım şahane. - Yusuf İBİLİ
Yusuf açıklamayı yaptım başka yerde : ) - Erhan Erdogan
Yanıt yetiştiremedim yalnız, üstüme mi geldiniz ne : )) Yarın hepinize yeterim : )) Her türlü ; ) - Erhan Erdogan
öyle bir ihtimal yok :D (ya hep ya hiç) : ) - Erhan Erdogan

@erhan @osman Parsera gerçekten hastenedeydi. Sağlık raporu alabilmek için yoksa tatil yalan olacaktı. Pazartesi çıkıyoruz tatile. Pazar sabahı uygunuz 10-12 arası ayrıca nike topumuzuda var sıkılırsak alır topumuzu gideriz :) - hasan toprakkaya

Hi Garry, where is your mate? -these was my post at Webrazzi, so it is my "Like", not Arda Kutsal's heheh- :D Did you like Turkish early adopters for your new fabulous 'post-blogging' startup? ; ) - Erhan Erdogan
posterous will post to wordpress and tumblr very soon. we want to be your distribution point for everything. - Garry Tan
I think you should wait for several months for these additions. Wait for higher mobile usages and also your own brand awareness as a blog service. You will be called as a technology like Twitter style(140 char.) or a digg style - wait for posterous style callings first. ; ) - Erhan Erdogan
nice, so it will be integrating all web 2.0ish social networking together? - Appy
Good for real-time advertising platforms - also it would be nice on windscreen. Imagine you're controlling windscreen wipers with your palm. : ) But it is not so creative, sure lots of competitors they have. - Erhan Erdogan
Haven't been in a Blockbuster (or similar) for nearly 4 years (during baby run-up) and still feel good about the time I save. Time - our most precious resource these days. - AJ Kohn
ive heard of people hunkering down but never bunkering in! 9 movies - i hope you got the weekly rental :) - Allen Stern
Mr Arrington, you're a good looking guy with a job. Please don't take this the wrong way, sir, but you have no business renting 9 movies at the local blockbuster and sitting at home alone with your dog. Jesus, you were on the top 100 of Time magazine. I think you should be getting the chicks, bro. I'm seriously. Ride this wave while it lasts. get the chicks! - Richard
@Michael Tefft: I have a Roku and it's terrible. Not the device - the selection at Netflix. It's really really bad. My wife and I haven't found anything to watch on it yet. :( AppleTV, and to a lesser extent, Unbox on TiVo and movies on Xbox 360 ftw. - Don MacAskill
Have fun! I love the unlimited monthly plan at Blockbuster for watching 18-hrs TV/day when I'm sick... - Mitchell Tsai
@richard some people chill better alone .. when you deal with deadlines and people in your face all the time , the last thing you want to do is go to a busy crowded club . Im a fulltime firefighter in canada , after being couped up inside with 4 guys for 10hrs , I look forward to "alone" time . - fotographic

Mike, that sounds like an awesome time. If anyone deserves some time off it is you! Let us know how the movies went. Take Care. - Shannon Coolican
Hangin' at home with no cell, IM, twitter, etc. and watching movies sounds like a good day to me. Hell, I should do that this weekend and catch up on all the movies I haven't seen. - Miiko Mentz
It would be really nice if posterous posts were imported with image thumbnails. - Jason Wehmhoener
Yes, please... add posterous support! We'd love to do anything it takes to help FriendFeed add Posterous as a supported feed. You name the API, we'll make it happen in 48 hours or less. -garry (cofounder, posterous) - Garry Tan
"courtesy of the same guys who brought us those cool little mini-cards, Moo.com. They are launching full-sized business cards with a new partner, LinkedIn, which makes sense in the business space, so maybe that be-suited VC won’t snigger at your tiny Moo cards any more." - Erhan Erdogan via Bookmarklet
Posting ratings of products/services at 42% was second only to uploading photos, followed by maintaining or updating a blog at 39%. It's surprising that we're not seeing many more leading websites launching mobile versions of their services with a design - Erhan Erdogan
ha. friendfeed comment sections are beginning to be as funny as the reddit comment sections. hmmm...probably just all the same users. - mike via twhirl
Possibly. And other clones have come along. But with identi.ca I have *never* seen such a rush of Twitter faithful to a new clone. We. Are. Frustrated. ;-( - Barbara K. Baker
they might fall apart but its where everyone built their networks, no way to export all the friends, the conversations. you can emulate some of the more active relationships when you move to a new network but the piecemeal people get left behind. twitter is special - Paul Rj Muller via twhirl
Yes Friendster indeed ... and MySpace swept in and cleaned up the pieces, just as FriendFeed looks poised to do ... - Mark Jeffrey
A new FF mashup - It's useful when using it with a service. With FFSpy it is possible to find cool sharings from new faces. Watching and "like"ing diigo and delicious shares is awesome! - Erhan Erdogan
