Microsoft has filed a document with the SEC showing that top executives at the software giant have received pay cuts. Basically, some millionaires are making a few million less than they normally would. In related news, Kleenex was having a hard time moving tissue boxes off the shelves this week. Meanwhile, Steve Ballmer released a 1,300 word dissertation on his thoughts regarding the "new normal" which is translating into the "new efficiency." Basically, people are saving more and spending less. You would think that would translate into a lower Windows 7 price, but somehow I doubt that's gonna happen. Instead, Ballmer talked about how upgrading to Windows 7 will save companies money in the long run. Pay now, benefit later. That must have been the theme for those pay cut conversations with the execs as well.

Beginning tomorrow (September 30), Google will send out 100,000 invites to Google Wave. The product has received a lot of buzz, both for being innovative and not quite ready. Actually, Google admits it's not ready for prime time, which is one of the reasons why the invites are limited. If you're not familiar, Google Wave is a collaborative tool that features real-time features. They're still working on features, including group definitions, draft mode and permissions. Those who can expect an invite are developers who participated in an earlier preview, the first people to sign up for invites and select Google Apps customers.

Are You Employing Leverage? A few months back I had a chat with ShoeMoney and we talked about a lot of marketing stuff. He always speaks of the importance of being able to leverage success to build other related projects. It is typically worth far more money to be a lead player with projects that build off of each other than it is to be a #10 player in many different markets trying to build disconnected brands that can't feed off each other. Even traditional slow moving publishing organizations like newspapers are aggressively leveraging network effects in their SEO strategy. Networks Allow You to Come From Behind When you look at Theme Forest they came late to the market, and yet are many times as large as competing businesses that are twice as old. Envato was launched in 2006, and in spite of coming late to market they were nearly instantly successful. Owning popular blogs helped them create thriving marketplaces, and the marketplaces help them make the blogs more popular. The...

I hate Facebook's "friend suggestion" feature. I frequently accidentally try and add these people thinking I'm approving friend requests. I wish they didn't have that.
Tell me about it. I almost accidentally approved clients listed on another co-worker's facebook, because they were "suggested". YIKES!!!

I do like FF and use it almost every day.

@Robert RE "I have enough noise in my life. I don't need to have more" - isn't it a lot of noise having 26K subscriptions and 46K subscribers on your frf account? I'm kind of surprised - you create a community that large around yourself, yet when you see a new and unusual activity you just block it right away.
- Махатма Бугоганди
@Robert, patience? Who's talking about patience? It's about curiosity, not patience.

Well, not stopped - just moved to some other place. And do you really know what it was and what it was about to bring you?

I think I have to qualify my earlier answer. I don't have many friends on Friendfeed, but I do use it as a news aggregator. With groups and rooms, I used it like Techmeme.

In fact, I spend more time there locking things down, than sharing, which I did pretty freely on FF, even if only 10 people cared.

From "massively small products" shop Particle, itself a startup newly out of stealth mode, comes a new app: Robo.to, pitched to us as a digital calling card. Although the app first struck us as a skinnier Retaggr with an animated GIF-esque Flash avatar slapped on the top, something quirky and cute drew us back and elicited deeper digging. We read on the Particle blog that their goal was "to design something a user can easily navigate, without really thinking too hard about it." We turned back to the adorable Robo.to app; had we simply been thinking too hard?
