Thanks, Michael. - Kol Tregaskes
More often I end up sharing directly through FF even if I find it on GReader, but sometimes I share there. http://www.google.com/reader... - Tony, Paradox of FF
http://www.google.com/reader... I'm glad you asked this right now. I just realized that several people are following me and I didn't even know it. I hope it hasn't been this way for long! - Michael Fidler
Michael, it's not been clear until very recently, you can see notifications here: http://www.google.com/reader... - Kol Tregaskes
Love yr posts :-))))) - Johni Fisher
thanks for starting this thread - here's mine http://www.google.com/reader... (mostly social media stuff, a little food, and occasional randomness) - Chris Rogers
Kol, thanks! I wish it would tell me when they started following, I'll have to keep a better eye on it now. - Michael Fidler
Mine is http://www.google.com/reader... - hope you enjoy! - outofmyarse
Just noticed that Reader now allows grouping of people you follow! Wondering: is Reader going to become a competitor (instead of complement) to FriendFeed? - Chris Rogers
http://www.google.com/reader... - Always looking for more ppl to share links! - Liza
Ah so that's your name, M F! ;-) I'm wanting to live in that area too, nice around there? - Kol Tregaskes
Yes it's alright I moved here two years ago, I was in West London before that - M F
GREAT FEED - I am finding so many great ppl to follow - this is great. - Liza

Well wave your hand Kol when you get here - M F

Hehe, M F. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Thanks for your latest bookmark there, Kim. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

Liza, oooh I love the post on generating Mandelbrot fractals in Excel! - Sally Church
@rogersdc / Chris, Google Reader is obviously been trying to become more social, but I'd really like to see FF come out with a bookmarklet that makes sub'ing RSS feeds to FF easier/faster. Right now it's a manual process involving either a new Group/Room or Imaginary Friend. Should be 2 clicks tops.. Also see: http://friendfeed.com/alexsch... - Alex Schleber
Thanks everyone! :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Here is mine : http://www.google.fr/reader.... I share (mainly on French sites and blogs) about libraries, literature and arts, human and social sciences, photography :-) - Nadine Pestourie

LOL here we go again :o) http://www.google.com/reader... I share a lot of blogs and funny stuff that I read, it's neat how I can share and it gets posted all over by friendfeed. - David Gross
Thank you. - Kol Tregaskes
Don't know that I have one, as I eschew most things Google.... - Mike Shields
Not sure if I've already shared it, but my URL is http://www.google.com/reader.... - Tyson Key
Thank you guys. - Kol Tregaskes
your welcome kol - Moved to Facebook from IM
I think that I over-loaded my poor G-Reader by adding all of you. ;-) - Mathew A. Koeneker
Here is my feed: http://l.clipotech.com/shared - I will try to add all of you on this list :) - Svartling
Don't forget to add all out new contacts in to groups. Otherwise we cant comment on each others shared items. - Svartling
http://www.google.com/reader... - Almost exclusively tech, including humor/cartoons and productivity. - Mahendra (SkepticGeek)
http://www.google.com/reader... - I share items about productivity, gaming, movies, and misc. stuff from the Google "cool" via Recommendations feed. Thanks Kol for starting this thread because I've been trying to cut down on the number of feeds I subscribe to and instead just follow interesting people. - Dusty Edenfield
Svartling: good point about adding people to groups. I noticed I couldn't comment on items that were shared by some users. - Dusty Edenfield
Thanks everyone. - Kol Tregaskes
I've (we) written a lot of more good tips on how to use Google Reader in Google Reader comments. It's too bad we don't have permalinks in Greader so we can share our notes and comments. Otherwise I could have posted a link here. Here are some on friendfeed: http://friendfeed.com/svartli... - Svartling
here's mine! Love some of the new features... http://www.google.com/reader... - tomit
I don't think I added mine yet: http://www.google.com/reader... - LogEx
Thank you. - Kol Tregaskes
I guess I best start sharing stuff, then. :D - http://www.google.com/reader... - Bette Cooper
http://www.google.com/reader... - I guess I'm a bit late to the party, but here's mine. I share mainly technology, photography, design... and other random stuff. - Ryan - @magicofpi
Thank you all. - Kol Tregaskes
Yes! The list I was looking for! I'll get my info on here as soon as I get on my netbook - Kamilah Gill from email
Thanks for posting this Kol. Never paid any attention to my shared items folder before but just did! - Martha
The conversation is really blowing up (in a good way) on Reader. The most important reminder currently is to set up groups and allow commenting. That is NOT on by default! - Vince DeGeorge
Vince, exactly! - Kol Tregaskes
Not sure how I missed this thread. I share lots of tech news, some programming stuff and a little more at http://www.google.com/reader... - Rob Diana
There is also a group that collected a bunch of reader shares at http://friendfeed.com/share-y... - Rob Diana
http://www.google.com/reader... - Or just go to: Sharing settings on your google reader shared items and search for: Avi Joseph - Avi Joseph
Thank you all. I think I have subscribed you all now (except those feed in languages I don't understand) Here is mine again: http://www.google.com/reader... - Svartling
I've started to follow a few of the people here but there's quite a few, so will take me a while :) - My currently fairly bare feed is: http://www.google.com/reader... - Roy Herrod
http://www.google.com/reader... - topics include a bit of everything, but there's a fair about of Android-related stuff in there - Chuck Falzone
http://www.google.com/reader... - German - mostly politics and crude funny things. Maybe some new technology - JoeD
Thank everyone. - Kol Tregaskes
There are a few entries here you might like to read to help you. This one: http://ff.im/6CkQj explains about adding people to groups to allow them to comment and why some don't stay in groups. In this one: http://ff.im/6F9pQ I suggest a way to track a large number of shared items using PostRank. This: http://ff.im/6Ci0P and this: http://ff.im/6AM35 has a few tips on using GReader as a lifestreaming service. And this: http://ff.im/6EMT1 gives a few examples of GReader bundles. - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... I mostly share ART with a little bit this and that thrown in for good measure. - Kimber Scott
http://www.google.com/reader... - I completely moved to Google Reader / Twitter / Posterous - Ryo / Fuck Facebook
Ryo: Same here :) "completely moved to Google Reader / Twitter / Posterous" All my followers, please subscribe to me on Google Reader: http://www.google.com/reader... or my lifestream: http://l.clipotech.com/lifestr... - Svartling
http://www.google.com/reader... share various science research and news - Colby from iPod
http://www.google.com/reader... -- nothing shared yet; still learning several social networks & services, so it might take me a while... - Dennis Jernberg
Those of you above whom I already follow on FF/Twitter/etc., I've subscribed to your feeds. As for the rest of you: if you follow me on GReader, I'll follow you back. - Dennis Jernberg
I'm sharing some pages now, including a few of my past blog entries. - Dennis Jernberg
easier to just follow and edit groups from search url>http://www.google.com/reader... - Ru Viljoen
Because I have issues with data duplication, I have merged this list with the google reader shares room feeds. You can view the Google spreadsheet at http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc... - Rob Diana
There are a bunch of shared feeds that I could not resolve the Google username for because they did not have a named profile set up. - Rob Diana
tristanhambling, your link didn't work. :-( - Kol Tregaskes
Thank you very much, Rob! - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... Right now I'm testing it in comparison to Netvibes. It's yet to be seen if I end up making the switch. - Brad Williamson
http://www.google.com/reader... Mainly photography related things. - Sven
It would be really handy to have all these shared feeds as an opml file. Has anyone added everyone? Care to export an opml of the shared feeds? - Paul Jacobson
Paul, can do that but it will be out of date the moment I post it as I'm getting more new users all the time. - Kol Tregaskes
Maybe someone could hook up something via Yahoo Pipes (or whatever) to automatically generate the OPML? - Tristan Seligmann
Damond, I'm getting that deja vu feeling. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Whoa, hey, I'm late to this. I'm here: http://www.google.com/reader... :-) - Jordan Hofker
I'm http://www.google.com/reader... Not really comfortable with the custom URL though since it can only be your gmail username. Makes it really easy for spamspiders I think. - TobiasVerhoog.com
Tobias, possibly but not had any problems myself though Gmail has the best spam filters around so I probably not noticed. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... Please dont tell me I have to add everyone manually like I did with Facebook yesterday?? *sigh* - Julia Ault
http://www.google.com/reader... link to my bundle with all my feeds that i have in friendfeed too - Chris Hofmann
http://www.google.com/reader... mostly webdev, photography news, music, world news which i get interested. plus half of them may be article in Japanese. sorry. :-p - browneyes
Thanks all! - Kol Tregaskes
spread those tentacles thats what i say (I'm generally sharing comics, animation, and interesting weirdeness) : http://www.google.com/reader... - Paul Greer
Exactly, Paul. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
There are a few people that have not added me to a group and so I cannot reply to some of your comments. :-( - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... - OK I'm in. Late as always. Will post my thoughts, feedback and pleading requests for help over in Google Reader so please follow me over there. Eat your own dog food and all that. - Andy C
MF/Kol = I live in Kingston on Thames. It's OK apart from the traffic (continually gridlocked) and the shops (girls just lurve them). Handy for getting into London both airports and out to the Thames Valley for work type things. Richmond Park and the river in walking distance is great too. - Andy C
phew.. - Paul Greer
Andy, Richmond Park and the others around there are the appeal really. Good place to go photographing and cycling while being very close to London I think. - Kol Tregaskes
Teddington (across the river from Kingston Upon Thames, is where I think I'd like to live. Just 'cos it's cheaper than everywhere else around it. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
@Kol many years ago, we made the mistake of asking an estate agent in Surbiton whether it was any cheaper than Kingston. She replied 'No - of course not. We are on the fast line to Waterloo' and looked at us as if we were dog excrement. - Andy C
I've checked rental prices in the area several times over the last 2 years and Teddington is definitely cheaper. I'm not buying, no way I can afford that. ;-) All a pip-dream anyway, need a steady job and I've not had that for a while. :-( - Kol Tregaskes
Thanks guys. - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... GReader, Twitter, and Delicious (plus my own sites) are my primary hubs now. Y'all please join me on GReader. - Chris Baskind

Nope, sorry can't help you there, David. - Kol Tregaskes
Jesse, I saw your share of this FriendFeed thread on Google Reader! - John E. Bredehoft

Is socialmedian a FriendFeed alternative? Check out the two FF groups for socialmedian - Rising: http://friendfeed.com/socialm... and socialmedian - Popular: http://friendfeed.com/socialm... #whatsyoururl - Kol Tregaskes
I guess it could be, although I stopped really using it months ago. http://www.socialmedian.com/mathewb... - Mathew™ one of a kind
heh mine's http://www.socialmedian.com/wangyip - the default picture seems close enough to me that i might just leave it heheh - Wang Yip
Thanks guys. - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.socialmedian.com/emmeffe... I rarely use it these days though - M F
Thank you. - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.socialmedian.com/vmlemon - I haven't used it for ages, though. - Tyson Key
It wants me to sign in with my Facebook account... - Dennis Jernberg
Okay. It's http://www.socialmedian.com/jbug (using the same short username I use for my Posterous and Streamy accounts). - Dennis Jernberg
http://www.socialmedian.com/michael... - I think socialmedian is best positioned to take over where friendfeed leaves off. There are a few things that need to be updated, but it wouldn't take much work. - Michael Fidler
Didn't they say that SocialMedian wouldn't receive any new features, after the Xing acquisition? - Tyson Key
No, they didn't say anything! Jason's been surprisingly silent about all of this, so it's hard to guess if they have something planned or not. - Michael Fidler
http://socialmedian/chrisloft - I haven't logged on here for a while, but it still streams up-to-date content - Chris Loft
thank you all for the connections.. add to your bar the "clip it! on s|m" and enjoy! - Demetrios the Traveller
Kol, you've posted a ton of lifestreaming and social media venues over the last couple of days. I'm sorry if I missed this info in your other posts, but do you have any favorites? Standouts? - Jim Hearts FF
As a replacement for FF? There is nothing close but NoseRub (see Identoo: https://identoo.com/koltreg...) seems very interesting. See entry here: http://ff.im/6wpJq - Kol Tregaskes
Kol, does all our data now belong to FB? - Denise Young
Denise, there is no news on what is going to happen to FF now FB own it. All we know is that the FF team will be split to various places in FB and that FF is probably close and maybe integrate into FB. Personally I don't like FB so if it doesn't look exactly like FF then I'm not following it to FB but who knows maybe FB Lite might be a solution - though this is unrelated to FF atm. - Kol Tregaskes
its so sad. i have already zapped out most of my links in FF as a precautionary measure. - Denise Young
How about streamy? - TrafficBug
may want to read this abt streamy - http://www.socialmedian.com/story... - TrafficBug
I tried socialmedian, didn't like it the least. - 'Like' robot (frɐnc)
http://www.socialmedian.com/rogersd... - an interesting service, but not sure that it offers much value over others - I'd really like to see the SocialMedian team do something (not sure what yet) that makes it stand out - Chris Rogers
Plaxo has been bandied around somewhat, here, TrafficBug. Your mileage may vary with it, though. - Tyson Key

Suggested reading (Programming) : Elements of Programming (2009), http://ifile.it/0892st5
Elements of Programming provides a different understanding of programming than is presented elsewhere. Its major premise is that practical programming, like other areas of science and engineering, must be based on a solid mathematical foundation. The book shows that algorithms implemented in a real programming language, such as C++, can operate in the most general mathematical setting. For example, the fast exponentiation algorithm is defined to work with any associative operation. Using abstract algorithms leads to efficient, reliable, secure, and economical software. - Ivan Pavlov

Do Single Women Seek Attached Men? - http://ivan.newsvine.com/_news...
Researchers have debated for years whether men or women are likelier to engage in "mate poaching." Some surveys indicated that men had a stronger tendency to go after other people's partners, but was that just because men were more likely to admit engaging in this behavior? Now there's experimental evidence that single women are particularly drawn to other people's partners, according to a report in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology by two social psychologists, Melissa Burkley and Jessica Parker of Oklahoma State University. - Ivan Pavlov

It was released in 2002, I think. And was not updated. - Ivan Pavlov
It was (and is) a good idea, I think they could integrate this into Google toolbar then you could use IE8 style accelerators and the system would recognize the context of the word and give further info about it, for example if it is a geographical place name and you select the word and press the accelerator key then it could give time, map, recent news stories, and an ad perhaps. Things like in Kosmix, if you search Alanis Morrisette it gives you albums, bio, video, music clips, pictures, etc. - TrafficBug

No matter how many new features Zoho adds to its products, I will never use it because its the ugliest of all web office suites. Agree or disagree? http://www.zoho.com/index.html
Picture 22.png
Sooooooo disagree. Google Docs? Butt-ass ugly. Zoho, much more functional and it looks like an ap! Love Zoho! - ‘-.-’ Tutivillus Grift
GE chose Zoho. Draw your own conclusions. Prefer MSO on this end, but that's just me - LANjackal
Disagree. I agree it doesn't look very sexy, but it works and is free. - Rutger Blom
Totally disagree. It's clean looking to me. And way better at integration that Google Docs. I can do so much more with Zoho. Best part? If you have a problem, it's usually fixed within a day. I'm *still* waiting for someone from Google to respond to an issue from 2 years ago. - Anika
No that would be unfair since no one has gotten their hands on it yet. In any case, MS says the UI should be the same as Office's desktop apps. If that's the case, it's got my vote for sure - LANjackal from IM
... if they can pull it off while keeping the app responsive and snappy, that is - LANjackal from IM
wow, i completely disagree with you guys regarding microsoft office online...I feel like Microsoft have still not got the desktop version right, we're going to be years off anything half decent for the web app versions. - Zee.
i just think its still full of bugs, hard to get what you actually want done done...if you check out Apple's iwork, that's much closer to a decent word processing app - Zee.
I used to love Zoho, but then it started acting up a little -- some mysterious bugs, some revisions disappearing, some trouble accessing data -- and I gave up on it. This was probably a year and a half ago. Sounds like maybe those problems are fixed. - Nathan Rein
Online Office Survey: http://bit.ly/BmPwk - Mark Layton
Sorry wrong link. Try it again. - Mark Layton
i have no problem with google docs - Chris Heath
Yeah, same @Chris, but i agree its not the prettiest of apps - Zee.
Zee: You definitely don't have to like MS Office, use what you want. But I'm curious as to exactly what "bugs" you're referring to. There are many criticisms of MS Office, but "buggy" isn't usually one of them. Could you elaborate? - LANjackal from IM
I vote for Office Web - don't write off almost 20 years of UI learnings too quickly. - Daniel Lizio-Katzen
LAN sure, but am on my iPhone at the moment. Will respond properly when back on my comp - Zee. from iPhone
can someone name an ATTRACTIVE online office suite?I use Google Docs just by default. I admit Office 2010 intirigues but I don't expect much from MS. - Leo Laporte from BuddyFeed
I give GDocs props for its simple interface, at least - LANjackal from IM
Agree. Buzzword is nice, but has no desktop version. - Zachary TG
Adobe AIR? *retches, vomits* - LANjackal from IM
Oh I know, I exorcised Gears from my PC earlier this year - LANjackal from IM
+1 - LANjackal from IM
I prefer ThinkFree to either ZoHo or GoogleDocs. Better roundtrip w/MSFT, smarter featureset. - Merredith Branscombe
I think Google Docs is the most straightforward, and integrates with my Google Apps. They need CRM and project management components, though. Zoho has a decent CRM but email integration has been promised but not delivered for a long, long time. Although much maligned, I still gravitate back to Entourage's project center for linking email, calendar events, tasks, files, etc. Will Office or Google add online CRM and project management first? - Steve Wright
I like Zoho--it's good and fast for certain specific tasks. Makes it incredibly easy to deploy a simple db online quickly, for instance. I'm a fan. - Kathy Fitch
I think the children's builiding blocks image is . . .. childish. Google Apps . . . stark. - Jim Adams
Zoho is a real mixture of styles around a central theme, gproducts tend to do the same thing but its a lesser impact theme - definitely a google style to the apps and products. Zoho seems to try to achieve more style and miss, google is minimal but i suppose they can if part of the brand is the simplicity - whitespace as a brand guideline - pjeedai
I wouldn't call Zoho ugly, or even cluttered. It feels like you are using Office imo. Can't wait for the upcoming Google Docs redesign though! - Tomy Thomson
Damn! You hit the hammer right on the spot. Zoho is like a big rip-off of Google products. Although, I do have to say that it has been technically implemented well. - Rohit
Zee - I happen to disagree. BUT, that's just me. That said, I'd love to hear your thoughts about how do you think it'd look better. Rodrigo / Zoho - Rodrigo Vaca
Disagree!!! and disagree more. GDocs is amateur as far as UI is concerned; Zoho might not be "IT" but is it waaay better and have nice and more features than any other web-tools with this level of elegance - Ashish Tiwari
If Zoho is the ugliest, what web office suite looks better? Definitely not Google Docs. - Dusty Edenfield
@Dusty, i definitely think Google Docs looks better...but yeah, above all is Buzzword.com - Zee.
Ok. Forgot about Buzzword. They've got it as far as design. How about features though? Last I checked they were behind Zoho. - Dusty Edenfield
I prefer Zoho to all other office suites. - Ivan Pavlov
Strongly Agree. ..though I've only used the 'Notes' feature. - 'Like' robot (frɐnc)
disagree. I uses google docs because it's well connected with gmail. but I don't think Zoho is ugly. - Orli Yakuel
I am used to using Google Docs, so I find that Zoho does not feel right to me. I almost think it is too cluttered. If I wanted all that I would just use Word (which I do regularly). Offisync really helps for a combo Word/gDocs user. - Sean Brady
I totally agree. - Vince DeGeorge
@Steve Wright, We just announced the Zoho CRM-Mail integration - http://bit.ly/1AS0th. Arvind / Zoho - Arvind
Holden: I was merely referring to the design aspect. If you compare a few of Zoho's offerings on one side and Google Docs and Microsoft Office on the other, I think you might get the picture then. You are right that Zoho has done a lot with Google Gears than Google itself has, and that is something I already commended them for earlier, but my point is that there isn't much innovation from the UI part to enhance user experience, which is where Zoho lacks. - Rohit
Totally disagree, Zoho is by far better than its competitors, Not only its brilliant interface, but also its various applications are amazing. - Tardid
Everybody Knows: You can't be all things to all people. You can't do all things at once. You can't do all things equally well. You can't do all things better than everyone else. "You" applies to Zoho as well. Continue rocking "You".... - Francis.K.Ruben
this is what you see when you login at zoho.com "You are logged into Zoho. You can select the service you need from the list below, or visit https://personal.zoho.com to start." what i understood/expected after looking at personal.zoho.com is a page like iGoogle or netvibes kinda page but the link redirected me to business,zoho.com which is nothing but viewing whole app in an iframe and... more... - naveen
I really didn't like the Zoho.com page it looks really amateur and i haven't seen a site where block heading center aligned and in a serif font, smaller than contents. Looks like some school kid designed the site. Blue ball like bullet points really SUCKS!!! Twitter and Facebook logos are as big as company logo and untitled press/customer testimonial column. Different fonts and very early 90's look - naveen
LMAO @Naveen. Those products most certainly do not do the same thing as evidenced by their names. Planner is entirely different that Projects. That's like saying Notepad is the same as PowerPoint. - Anika
disagree, Zoho is much better than Google Docs, just doesn't have the PR/name recognition of Google! - Brian from BuddyFeed
@LAMO what i'm trying to say is if they integrate all those Almost same but different apps as one it will be a killer and can give options to user to turn-on/off few features. - naveen
I heard that some developer designed www.zoho.com not a designer though they have a lead designer who don't have any clue whats going on.... - naveen
update: lead designer + manager (who ever reviewed the design) = amateur - naveen

World's largest snake shows tropics were hotter in the past - http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_rel...
The largest snake the world has ever known -- as long as a school bus and as heavy as a small car -- ruled tropical ecosystems only 6 million years after the demise of the fearsome Tyrannosaurus rex, according to a new discovery published in the journal Nature. - Ivan Pavlov

A Comeback for Lamarckian Evolution? - http://cellnews.newsvine.com/_news...
The effects of an animal's environment during adolescence can be passed down to future offspring, according to two new studies. If applicable to humans, the research, done on rodents, suggests that the impact of both childhood education and early abuse could span generations. - Ivan Pavlov

says it's good to see development in Chrome is going backwards, only kidding, hope they iron out the problems with the alpha soon.
I don't have the chance to run into problem, because I am on a Mac, and still anxiously waiting ;o) - Seth Greenblatt from twhirl
No Mac version? :-( - Kol Tregaskes
Of Google's few desktop applications (Google earth, Picasa, Chrome) the one they developed inhouse is ....well.... overly buggy. - Amit Morson
And it doesn't work on 64-bit Windows 7 beta... - Jemm
I didn't have many issues with Chrome aside from the fact that it's very barebones. - Amit Morson
I tried Chrome for a week and gave up. It just doesn't work for me. I prefer to see Firefox eating less RAM. - Ivan Pavlov
Barebones it may be, but for me I'm only missing a few things that I can do in Firefox. If they add those few things it will be great. As for problems with Chrome, well if you're on the alpha version you have to expect problems. Alpha is *very* early stages, if it were at beta stage I'd be worried but you have to put up with the problems in alpha. - Kol Tregaskes
And having used Flock and Firefox today while Chrome is not working I can safely say there is no way I'm moving back to anything other than Chrome!! FrF and Flock are SO slow!! :-( - Kol Tregaskes

Websites 'must be saved for history' | Technology | The Observer - http://www.guardian.co.uk/technol...
"Historians face a "black hole" of lost material unless urgent action is taken to preserve websites and other digital records, the head of the British Library has warned." - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie) from Bookmarklet
"When Barack Obama was inaugurated as US president last week, all traces of George Bush disappeared from the White House website, including a booklet entitled 100 Things Americans May Not Know About the Bush Administration, which is no longer accessible. There were more than 150 websites relating to the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, she continues, but these, too, vanished instantly at the end of the games and are now stored only by the National Library of Australia. " - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
On a much more mundane and personal note, I still kick myself for not having made a copy of the gamesdomain website before it got bought by yahoo (who did a new site losing all the archive - bad job!). It had a great set of reviews and news about the early days of computer games! And no, it didnt make it into archive.org - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
http://web.archive.org might have copies of some of the sites mentioned. - Ivan Pavlov
Haven't they heard about the Wayback Machine? - Nicholas James
well the wayback machine is very spotty - it doesnt get all sites and doesn't get all pages for a site. The whole point *is* that there needs to be some cooperative systematic effort to keep things that will have an interested 20+ years from now - an effort that cannot just be left to archive.org and their limited funding - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)

Anyone know of a site to get an idea of cost of living / lifestyle in different places across Europe?
There is some information (by country) at http://www.globalpropertyguide.com/Europe... but not much. - Ivan Pavlov
thanks, thats a start - I'm mostly curious to figure out what is an average / good salary - i.e. how far for example 80000 euros go etc. - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
i wonder if it is data we can gather over social media - and get a simple calculator that says "to have the same lifestyle as X pounds in london you need Y euros in dusseldorf" - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Every year the Economist prints a Big Mac index showing relative cost of eating @ McDonald's in major cities around the world...while done somewhat tongue in cheek it might be useful to use as a preliminary screen before drilling down into a morass of different factors. - David HC Soul
Interesting question, Joelle, I'll check out these links. - Kol Tregaskes
Ideally I would like something like http://www.gapminder.org but I guess that's too much to ask for. - Ivan Pavlov
this one's always worth checking out http://www.lonelyplanet.com/ - sofarsoShawn
In a way from my perspective it is "how much do you need a month to have a decent flat with comfort basics - rent, taxes, utilities, groceries, broadband, healthcare" so I can figure out how much disposable/investable income a job represents - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Depends how much you spend and where you want to live. But the Europeans make less money than Americans. What will cost you a lot in Europe is coffee shops and eating out. If you make your own food it will be cheap. - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
Joelle, would you be interested in knowing this from The Netherlands? I could ask around here... Maybe there are people from outer European countries here too. Probably. I'd say. - Meryn Stol
I'm particularly interested in finding this out about major cities in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany - Switzerland and Denmark I can figure out. These are the countries where I sometimes get an call saying "would you be interested in a position in X" and I have no clue whether the salary is good or insulting ;) - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
This is pretty nice: http://www.erieri.co.uk/index... It will set you back GBP 487 though ;) Don't the big career sites have stats on salaries per position, per country? - Meryn Stol
That is another angle I guess - I might ask some of my recruiter friends (the ones I used to hire from :D ) they might have access to this - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
