"I bought my pops a coffee table Ali book eons ago. I'll see if I can find it. Speaking of boxing, we gotta get folks together for that Mayweather joint in March. Pac Man Fever!"

"Many a hiphop emcee has said "don't talk about it, be about it", "show and prove", "don't let your mouth write checks your body can't cash", all of them underscoring the fact that the truth more often seen than heard. Seeing really is believing."

"Skype's content, technology, and business development is truly peer to peer. There are no paywalls or lawyers to inhibit superior experience supplanting an existing behavior, using the landline phone. Joost was clumsy from day one, with inferior service, sparse content selection, technology hurdles, etc. We need to remember that at Joost's launch, YouTube was already serving up hundreds million videos streams a month. The video delivery technology war had already been won before Joost's hyped up unveiling. All that said, are we about to see the next evolution of TV and computer convergence? FIOS has Facebook/Twitter and streaming from computer integration, Boxee is building HDMI hardware at $200 price point and releasing Beta, and quality televisions have become so dirt cheap that differentiation may happen only via built in WiFi connected media centers. Interesting times lie ahead."

"See, if Flavors.me had custom domain names, this would be totally simple. Note that you can consume everything right there, on the page, ergo, it's not just a pretty start page to other destinations, but a real application for consuming content."

"100% agreement. I am also big on GreaseMonkey for rapid dev and trying out stuff. I may have a killer UX guy for you, more later tonight ..."

"I am as astonished as you are at how many entrepreneurs want to remove the humanity, the narrative, the story attached to their hard work by not making meaningful connections."

"Robert et. al. are drinking the Haterade Whitney. Twitter Lists are tools for the creator first, other people second. The idea that the name {{gasp}} doesn't give enough valuable metadata to others about the list members is complete BS. If anything, conversationlist says more about the list OWNER than almost any other listing convention I've seen. Dynamic (sign up and go), easily explained, consistent naming across users, I think it's just fine. It's a summary page for those I am most actively engaged with through the medium. Simple and transparent."

"It's as if you read my mind. This is very, very interesting, with a lot of embedded wisdom, from the solo Product founder to the liquidity/repayment provisions. I'm not saying I agree with them all, but I appreciate identifying the triggers and criteria greatly. Very innovative."
