How close were we to the planes (F-18s) taking off from the #Nimitz ? This close! (Video) - http://www.flickr.com/photos...

We were literally in between rows of F-18s taking off from the USS Nimitz.

Wow!

EWoah!

WOW! Robert you are a lucky guy! :)
- TheHenry
Wow isn't even close to describing how cool this is. Plus, over video you can't experience the noise, the wind, the jet fuel smell, and the full HD experience (behind us planes are launching too, and there's just stuff happening all over when you're on the flight deck).
- Robert Scoble
I am surprised they let you get that close! Especially that second vid with the arresting wires just in front of your feet!
- Robert
You are the coolest !!
- Eddie Wayne
Robert: I was surprised too. Eddie, no, the pilots are the coolest. The skill (and confidence) it takes to land one of these at night is just freaking amazing. We got to hang out with the Pilots at night and they are really cool people. I gave each one a Poken and we had a lot of fun with that.

Clearly they're not running background checks like they used to. ;)

"...and the full HD experience..." That's real life high def right there.

What did you use for video, Robert? Did the mic survive? :-O
- Ken Sheppardson
Does that look fun or what?
- Colin
Incredible video. Now I have Danger Zone playing in my head. What an awesome experience you all had. Mahalo for sharing!
- Nathan Kam
Ken: I was using a Canon 5D MKII with a 70-200 F2.8 lens for these with a R0DE microphone. The mic survived just fine. Colin: it was a total blast, but the highlight of the trip was taking off from the ship. What a rush and one that I'll never be able to totally explain. One of the guys just called it "dynamic." That about nails it. ;-)

Incredible Robert but what was the occasion? Not just anybody can have this experience.

Wow, what a video.

My dad was stationed on the Nimitz when I was little (he was a fighter pilot). I remember touring it as a kid and being amazed.

You need to add "Highway to the Danger Zone" as your soundtrack…
- Mistletoe Glen
Very Cool.
- John D Reasor
Ken: actually I was using a 16-35 F2.8 L series lens for most of the videos. Colin: the Navy brings many press and VIPs on board for this kind of "embark." The Navy is getting into Twitter and friendfeed and other social media and wanted us to get an upclose look at the ship and what 5,000 Navy sailors do while at sea. They know they can't do public tours so they bring people on board who can show off what they do to other people. Hope I did OK as your proxy.
- Robert Scoble
Robert, in this case I wish I didn't have a proxy :) Hopefully that day will come some day.

- Andrew Clinick
Makes me jealous, I've always wanted to be on a flightdeck of a carrier during operations.
- Jim Lavin
Jim: it's always been a dream of mine too. I've gone to many an airshow and always wanted to get on deck to see them shoot off a plane. The fact that I got to witness about 40 launches, a good many of them at night (those pictures didn't come out so well) was just a great thrill. Keep dreaming, sometimes dreams come true!
- Robert Scoble
I spent 10 years in the Air Force as a weather forecaster and I always loved to set out on the flight line and watch the jets take off. It is so fantastic to see them go from a dead stop to straight up in no time at all. Thanks for sharing the video and pics, you always seem to have so many neat things to share!

He is California's Public Utilities Commissioner too. Thinks focusing on executive pay is misguided. Says the stimulus bill is just pork and won't create short term jobs. Thinks the financial system is broken and needs an overhaul. Says that capitalism might have been harmed permanently by bankers and wall street.
- Robert Scoble
Let me guess, massive government spending ISN'T what we need right now? How about further tax cuts WITH fiscal responsibility? As we learned with the Reagan administration (and as with JFK too) tax cuts are good for the economy.

The system indeed needs an overhaul. Our economy thrives on the creation of needs for products and services consumers did not know they wanted or needed - it was unsustainable as it was.
- Bill
Although I am interested in what he has to say, and I applaud Robert for getting this interview, and I'm looking forward to reading it, I think we need to take this with a grain of salt here. What's the headline? "Longtime Republican Thinks Obama's Economic Plan Is A Bad Idea."
- Mitch Wagner
Mitch: he doesn't come off as very partisian. He has lots of friends in high places.
- Robert Scoble
I don't think it's a matter of partisanship, it's more a matter of world view. If you view tax cuts as the only viable stimulus, then everything else looks wrong. Yet these are the same guys who have never seen it coming.
- Alex Scoble
Robert you should setup a blog that is simply, "interesting people that sit next to me on planes," it would be a great RSS feed
- anna sauce
+1000 anna!
- Susan Beebe
Robert, I find that quite believable. And expect he'll have some good points to make. And Obama's stimulus plan is not above reproach. But, still, he's coming at this with a certain ideological bias, and that bias is the opposite of Obama's. Asking him to comment on Obama's fiscal plan is like asking a Windows guy his opinion of the Mac.
- Mitch Wagner
Ask him what the impact of the berlin wall was to US finance/economics at that time
- anna sauce
I'd love to hear his take on how we get out of this mess, especially since GWB made the tough decisions to right our fiscal house after years of deficit spending, before his successors allowed the creation of huge imbalances by pumping up the money supply. More than the question of how good or bad is the Obama plan, I'd like to know what he'd actually prescribe and what evidence (historical or theoretical) he'd use to support his suggestions.
- Cecyl Hobbs
Ask - what CAN be done to salvage the US...strike that...Global... economy?
- Susan Beebe
I'd also be curious to see if he believes that increased banking regulations combined with the stimulus package (whether the GOP or Obama version) will result in the flight of "smart" capital out of the U.S.
- Cecyl Hobbs
Cecyl, I'm confused by your first sentence. GWB didn't right the fiscal house after deficit spending, he inherited a balanced budget and ran up a record deficit. And he's only had one successor, who's been in office less than a month. IOW, huh?
- Mitch Wagner
Love to hear the interview, Robert. And I agree with Anna's idea :) Thanks for sharing.

Seriously, I do think this crisis gives us an opportunity to build a stronger, saner economy. Too much of the economy was built on consumer goods that are, basically luxuries. If your car is five years old and still runs well and comfortably, you just don't need a new one, and won't for many years -- and yet our economy was built on convincing you that you need a new car every 2 yrs. But I fear that getting to that saner point will be horrible.
- Mitch Wagner

- andy brudtkuhl

- Tom Landini
I think it's short-sighted to say bankers and wall street permanently harmed capitalism. They had a part to play but the greater problem is that the ponzi-scheme of credit (we're only 30 years in to mass credit card usage) and climate of over-consumption. Remember, we recently had a *negative* savings rate. [cont]
- AJ Kohn
[cont] Couple this 'live beyond our means' philosophy with the manipulation of economic benchmarks and you're able to put rose tinted glasses on the situation for decades. Nearly every President changed the way we track GDP, Unemployment and Inflation to make it look better than it is. (Try ShadowStats to get the real picture, it will not make you happy.) [cont]
- AJ Kohn
[cont] Finally, and I'll take flak for this, the post-Reagan income tax system encourages greed. That is different from encouraging success. So, a system of free credit and splurge culture, meets statistical gerrymandering, meets carpetbagger Gordon Gecko greed and you wind up where we are now. Any stimulus is running into a gale force headwind IMO.
- AJ Kohn
I sort of agree w/ Huffington when she suggested we keep a panel of those who DID forsee this meltdown long before it happened as a sort of Minority Report.

- Karoli
That reminds me of a time in the recession of 1981 when 364 economists jointly took out a full page ad criticising Mrs Thatcher's economic policies. A reporter asked her "can you name TWO economists who support you?" She said "Yes, xxx and yyy" [her two main economics advisors at the time]. She later said privately: "I'm glad they didn't ask for three!"
- Andrew Denny
The vast complexity of the issues we face make the future completely unpredictable. No one really knows what's going to happen - and even worse, what will fix it. Consumer confidence / spending is very difficult to predict, if not impossible when looking a timeframes of more than a few months. There's no such thing as the "perfect" solution, so Obama is doing the right thing by pushing SOMETHING. Action, no matter what the plan, is actually more important than the substance.
- Vince DeGeorge
Reagan! That's where the problem started. "Trickle down," until the whole thing collapses from being top-heavy!
- Phil Boiarski
The system may be broken right now, as soon as we allow citizens to start spending more of what they earn the system will start to repair itself, that's if government will stop regulating what we can sell and how we sell it. One of the biggest problems is their is no unity in government right now. I think George Washington said it best in his final speech before leaving office the Unity...

JFK said "Together we will save the planet, or together we will perish in its flames."

The kids at http://www.gen-we.org know what's at stake (watch the video). They want to end the perception that the US is a greedy and arrogant nation. In this hyper-connected world, the only way to do that is to STOP being arrogant and greedy.

As others have said already, when the guy now in charge of the IRS can't manage to figure out his own taxes, either you need a brighter SecTreas or the tax code is WAAAY overdue for serious refactoring. (Or both.) Maybe instead of blowing trillions on a bailout, put some of that effort into deleting most of the tax code. By now, I bet you could delete 99% without losing more than 1% of the revenue - a huge win for everyone except tax accountants!

first time I've seen it, I thought someone actually tweeted it. Then all of a sudden, most of my timeline was 'tweeting' the same message.
- Dee S.
Email may be preferable on some mobile devices. But, I agree with Robert, an awful way to spam Twitter. Spam as the default=bad. Choice of "support twply on your first login" is too vague and even misleading.
- iSteeve
They seem to have a different idea of what "viral marketing" is about.
- Franz Binder
Definetely agree with iSteeve - "I support twply ... every three weeks I show them love" is vague. This does not indicate to me that every three weeks they will be sending out spam with my name attached. I hope they are shut down.
- Renee Hendricks
any 3rd application that asks for my twitter name/pswd - I don't give my info. Red flag - but just my opinion.

The thing that put it over the edge for me was "Neat Stuff!" --- It sounds like a personal endorsement instead of an announcement that someone is trying it out. Big difference between "I'm trying this out" and "I think this is the coolest thing ever"
- Jose Castillo
I don't think they should shut down, I think they need to let the people who use it tell others about it on a "hey check this tool out", basis.
- Charlieray
I agree with TheJennTaFur ... unfortunately, Twply has set a bad example for those 3rd party twitter apps who are actually developing for the betterment of the Twittersphere, not just to spread themselves thin

- Patrick Veverka
FWIW, I enabled Twply on a test account and it honored my "no tweet" request
- Dan Byler
Don't trust them now. Changed my Twitter password so they couldn't screw with my account. We need a better way to interact with Twitter from a security perspective. Some sort of trust 3rd party. Maybe Twitter could implement something that allowed us to authorize various clients through the Twitter site, rather than giving out our password to multiple companies. PeopleBrowsr, TweetDeck, etc, etc all have our password.

You know, the CAN-SPAM act is sufficiently vague on the definition of an electronic mail message that this type of stuff could feasibly be under its domain. Do they provide an opt-out mechanism for their "support" tweets? Is there a physical address?
- Mark Trapp
I agree with Scott - we need the allow/authorize feature for clients in Twitter. I m recommending everyone to change their Twitter pswd after the 'twply' thing. As soon I put my Twitter username and pwd I found something weird about it!
- Frank Da Silva
They need to be clear what it means to "support" them on your first login. I see from their Twitter stream that they'll post your "support" every three weeks. Did I miss that on their home page?
- Julie Barrett
Was this due to not reading carefully? Or are they sent even if elected not to support? Read carefully before signing up at http:/twply.com
- Brian
Brian: it's both. The opt-in was "support Twply on first login": no mention of sending out a Tweet. In addition, people are reporting that even though they clicked "No thanks" they sent out the tweet anyway. Combined with the developer of Twply's intransigence, it doesn't make for a very good experience.
- Mark Trapp
Checking out the twply page again - I m wondering where is the 'about us', 'contact us, 'help', etc... as in any other website/application or whois behind it hyperlink! Very weird indeed! Red Flag big time!! as the first 2009 starter it failed!! This is the Whois Record for the domain: http://whois.domaintools.com/twply...
- Frank Da Silva
Yeah, last thing I want is twitter invading my inbox. Part of what I like about twitter is the lack of inbox integration.

I unchecked the support box and it still sent the spam. There is no delete account on the site. Changed my password. This is a spam hack. FAIL.
- Mark Interrante
unchecked the support box, same as everyone else, still sent the tweet
- Patphelan
If you're an active Twitter user and 1) you see two or three people with the same tweet in near succession and 2) go check out the service and 3) see the "Support twply..." radio button, and you can't put it all together to know it's going to send the same message on your behalf if you opt-in, well then, i don't know what to tell you. I guess stop breathing through your mouth?
- Morgan
...if on the otherhand you checked no and it still sent it then that is total fail. @mark trapp's comment about CAN-SPAM and the opt-out of notices is also an interesting angle.

An interesting dilemma - I hate spam and would like to boycott anything promoted that way. Usually it's junk - Viagra or whatever - but occasionally it's something I would actually have liked had it been promoted honestly. I agree with Frank Scavo and @smaentz though: Twitter should have a better access-control system, like Flickr: give Twply read-only access, no risk of this happening in the first place.

Mike - I'd say this one was just as quick - http://www.centernetworks.com/justhac...

Scott: it's probably worth me pointing out that TweetDeck accesses your Twitter username password from your local machine only, it is not stored centrally. There's no point saving this data centrally, poses way to much of a security risk and responsibilty on the developers shoulders.
- Iain Dodsworth
I don't know if I'd consider 825 sign-ups (according to their sale notice) all that effective, especially considering the number of big names that talked about it. It did net the guy a quick 1,200 bucks, though.
