I used to live in Northern Virginia. Everyone is so rude there. It's to be expected. - Dave Friedel

Jerry once again is late to the conversation and makes a lame attempt to catch up after everyone has moved on. <yawn> - Jerry Perez
Huh, what's going on here? I didn't delete any comments. One really crude one that Dave and Akiva commented on, but that was it. And wait, Akiva and Robert are dbags? Oh, ok. Good thing they don't have to subscribe to me if they don't want to. - Veronica
I'm so confused. - Veronica
Oh, and trolls? <yawn> - Veronica
*feels oddly sleepy*----> - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from iPod
Go take a nappypoo, I'll wake you if it gets interesting. - Veronica
Your the greatest Veronica! - Ned Garcia-Mathews
No, Veronica didn't delete the comment. I'm sure that the commenter deleted it himself. It was completely inappropriate and disgusting. - Rochelle
If me not treating you differently because you have a crapload of subscribers makes me a douchebag, then I'm the Holy Grail of Douchebags. - Akiva Moskovitz
I don't really care if you give a frack who I am. But if you're going to be an asshole about it, you can go elsewhere. - Veronica
Hey, I was defending against the crude comment yet I get called a douchebag? - Akiva Moskovitz
So, you're what all Douchebags hope to be? - Jerry Perez
So... you're a chivalrous douchebag? Now I'm really confused. - Veronica
Akiva will have to duel me for THAT title... - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from iPod
I don't think I'm a douchebag at all and I'm confused as to why you called me one. - Akiva Moskovitz
This feed has more action than a public Google Wave! - Jason Wong
I think your great Veronica! - Ned Garcia-Mathews
Aren't we supposed to take a shot when someone mentions Google Wave? - Jerry Perez
Perhaps I am the one feeling a bit unchivalrous. But you yawned at me for no apparent reason other than the fact that you 1) don't know who I am (I would have been happy to enlighten you) an 2) I apparently don't subscribe to enough people on FF. - Veronica
Hah, I was actually just snarking Amy who brought up your popularity. Sorry if you thought that was about you. - Akiva Moskovitz
3) I'd be happy to get you a cup of coffee - Veronica
If you need more people to subscribe to, I'm available Veronica : ) - Jerry Perez
Friends for life, Veronica! Friends for life! - Akiva Moskovitz
We are so BFF now! And don't worry, I call Dave a douchebag all the time, it's a term of endearment. - Veronica
Jerry, you might want to start with spelling her name right. - Rochelle
Right on. And don't worry, I've been called way worse. - Akiva Moskovitz
damn it - Jerry Perez
FIAL...see what I did there? - Jerry Perez
It's nice to see the Northwest Peace Accords signed. Make sure you keep the pens for posterity. I will never again underestimate the power of douchebag diplomacy - Matthew DeVries
But Robert is still a douchebag, and the bad kind. Not the endearing kind. - Veronica
Many of us have also been told to STFU. - Jerry Perez
Lovingly!! - Veronica
Hi Veronica! Thanks for sharing the pictures. Your the best! - Jim Bednarz
Yes, lovingly. I don't disagree. - Jerry Perez
Her the best is what? - Matthew DeVries
Imagine if we had live messageboards during the unveiling of the Mona Lisa. Who would be the first to be called douchebag? - Jason Wong
We're just giving examples of how you share your love. - Jerry Perez
The best at EVERYTHING! - Jim Bednarz
An ex-boyfriend probably. - Jerry Perez
you have my attention...! - John de Back
<yawn> Just awoke from a nap. What'd I miss? - Dave Friedel
A pizza party. - Veronica
Some party. Looks like some douchebags showed up. The nap was better. - Dave Friedel
By the way, it's spelled Frak. - Dave Friedel

Veronica
Watched the first 4 episodes of "V" last night -- still trying to decide if I Iiked it, or if it was too heavy handed. Thoughts?
I liked it, but it wasn't super great. It showed promise, and i am very glad they compressed 6 episodes into 4 because the fast pace kept it from being FlashforwaRd - RAPatton
It's okay but it needs to do more, but probbly keep watching it, You watch the new stargate universe? It's decent up until last weeks episode which was the worst so far. - Fee501st from iPhone
Trying to figure out the underlying message. Are vaccines good or bad? - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF) from iPod
I watched the original V and this one represents it well. It has a lot more action and hits a lot of different topics, If you are thinking about whether you should like it or not, I believe it has doing its job in provoking thought (not a common feature in most TV shows.) I like it. New LOST season will be very good also. - echostreamer
They have re-made V???? I used to love that as a kid - Alan Tickhill
The vaccine thing annoyed me, actually. - Veronica
I watched the original as kid as well It seems like they are moving faster with the story line - Ardith
I was so-so until they showed the V fleet. Now I'm anticipating where the series is going. - Rob Haas
I like it - walterh
The vaccine thing (H1N1 swine flu) is relevant & worth bringing up in the V episode. It is much weaker than the regular flu, yet many state worker (NY) were being mandated to get vaccinated until they sued & won (not mandatory any more.) How can the state force people to get vaccinated? I think that's what they were addressing in the episode of V. Well done V. - echostreamer
So far so good! - midnightgolfer
I like it! - tbsponsor
you're still thinking after 4 eps means you want it to be good/great but it's not so you're undecided. i think that means its a flop. ---at least that's how it starts. - jomarhilario
i'm a bit frustrated that rather than have Juliet from Lost (whatever this character's name is) ask the friendly V guy, "So why are they here? What is their real plan?" they didn't bother with that at all so that they could keep the suspense of the show going. It will be interesting to see how the show changes due to all the behind the scenes drama going on with who is running the show. - jccalhoun
The Fifth Column makes it interesting. And I'll watch anything with Morena Baccarin or Elizabeth Mitchell..."Juliette from Lost" in it. - Josh Haley from iPhone
Juliet should have a bazillion questions for the 5th column V. But for an FBI agent she has a startling lack of curiosity. I think the show is okay overall but the pace is whipsaw: First episode felt rushed, second episode glacial, and the third and fourth weren't great. I think the show is pretty good overall, though. - Stephen Mack
yEah, that sounds about right. Not sure it's very easy to balance so many facets in just four episodes. Plus, they haven't even gotten to the BIG reveal yet. - Josh Haley from iPhone
I really like it. I think the Vaccine thing was great. It would have caused people to die and the blame would have been on humans instead of V, causing people to mistrust each other more. This would cause people to turn to the V more, make us that much more devoted to them. - Dario Gomez

this is underfaksink at its worzt - Petr Buben
Petr, I have no idea what you mean, but thank you. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
@Kol .. :] that, partially, might have been the purpose.... I don't know it exactly either. :] .. was I reflecting on a cat under the fax, and that it is hard to fax that way ... /?:] ... "underfaxing at its worst" .. - Petr Buben
Ah, OK, Petr. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

Try rolling the cat through a press first. Flat cats fit into the fax easier. - Bob Blunk
Fax, Petr. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
even a flat cat... faxes just can't handle the hair. You'd have to shave the cat first, else the hair will burn and stick to the drum... a mess! (I am extrapolating from transparencies, mind, i don't have access to a cat to test) - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Hehe, Joelle. This is now tied for the 'likes' top stop. One more then, hehe. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

Am I the only one who saw this and their first thought was - My goodness did someone break that cats neck? It still freaks me out a little - Steve C
Steve, it does look a little out of place, but cats are pretty bendy. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
They fax much better if you flatten them first. What? - Kevin Pedraja
LOL, Kevin. - Kol Tregaskes
i can also imagine the cat going there cause it is snug and warm - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Ey, it would be a tad warm on there, especially after a long working day. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

Good point, Jimminy. Has anyone's water turned to blood, yet? Anyone? - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
Its actually clearing up over here in Sydney.. it looks like light fog but no red color - Jay

I can feel, smell and taste it in my nose and throat. Just waiting for my asthmatic lungs to revolt. - Mellissa Claus

Creepy sky. <--- incredibly obvious I know. But, wow, creep sky. - SAM
Creepy looking indeed. These are sandstorms, eh? Closest to that I've ever seen was when we had a major forest fire several years ago. - Jan Ole Peek
You guys okay, Johnny? That's got to be pretty scary, even for someone who isn't asthmatic. Were I in your shoes, I'd be wishing for some valium to go with my inhaler. - Ladybug Heather

Even $250 would be steep. :( - Josh Haley
I think I might start a change jar at home for something like this - I can't quite justify buying it outright, but if it is from "lost" change, I'm thinking that might be more doable. - Jennifer Dittrich
i promise to buy this for you someday... all the kids will be working for a living and we'll all chip in to get it for you. so... you'll just have to wait until we have successfully educated our four children enough for them to go to college and get really great jobs doing what they love. by then it will probably going for five times the amount. it will be worth the wait, though. - Trish Haley
Why is Lego so bloody expensive? - Michael Forian
a friend has been working on this for a very very long time. its rather cool looking though!! - Rachel Lea Fox
Trish, that was so sweet. <3 - joey
Awwww! - Josh Haley from iPhone

Pssst! It's my birthday today, and this post is relevant. - Josh Haley
On my list as well along with the Deathstar, Although I did get the Imperial Star Destroyer last Christmas from my son/me and that wasn't cheap! For the size of the Falcon it isn't that expensive, try findind or buying Boba Fett's Slave I if you want to see expensive for a small set! - Russell G

Apple nabs 91% of "premium" computer revenue in June - Ars Technica - http://arstechnica.com/apple...
If you need any more reasons why Apple isn't jumping into the cheap netbook fray, a look at some analysis form NPD on recent computer sales should make Apple's point of view crystal clear. For the month of June, slightly more than 9 out of every 10 dollars spent on a computer over $1,000 went to Apple. That's a significant increase from the share of revenue Apple had of the higher-end PC market last year, which was already an impressive 66 percent. - Leo Laporte

Isint this kind of pointless??? Apple defines the term "premium computer". - Roberto Bonini
Roberto, there's been a lot of hay lately made about apple having a very small piece of the market, but this stat shows that they own the market... the thing is that apple's market is only in computers over $1,000 and they don't really care to be in the mass market - techcrunch analogized it as camry vs porsche (not a very good analogy imho, but still makes sense) - Chris Heath

I'm late to this one, but I didn't realize Apple commanded so much of the high-end PC market, stunning, really, wow! —"You need look no further than numbers released today by NPD to understand Apple’s strategy. Its revenue share of the “premium” price market — that is, computers over $1,000 — is a staggering 91%. This means that 9 out of every 10 retail dollars that is spent on PCs in that price range, goes to Apple." - .LAG liked that from Bookmarklet

FriendFeed on a Saturday afternoon isn't the same without @stevegillmor's gang.
Do your own on TinyChat - Chris Saad
Really? - Jim Connolly
Scoble Gang - Mark
You really should go back to doing it audio only, easier and better. - Mason Lee
Yeah - what about a 'Scoble's gang?' You know everyone worth talking to. - Jim Connolly
But yeah, I agree-- I miss that podcast, especially when it went somewhat deeper into things like "track" and the future of communications - Mason Lee
Scoble's Gang reporting sir! - Özgür D. Cyric
I'll get the Scoble Snacks! (Sorry, someone had to.) - Darren Landrum
Darren: Loved that! :-) - Jim Connolly
Heh. Thanks everyone! Gives me something to think about. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
I'll help you folks out. Steve: "If we can just get track back, then the gesture economy will finally take hold" Arrington: "Mufflers again, let's talk sports cars." Doc: "Is VRM a muffler or sports car?" Jason: "This show was sponsored by Building 43." Scoble: "Heehee." - Matt Terenzio
Matt: add some drama and that is pretty close. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
Wow. Only a little? Can't wait for Scoble Gang - Steve Gillmor
Steve: I can't wait either but I already have Scoble Gang. It is called FriendFeed. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
I thought we were a mob... now i'm confused - Chris Heath
HAHAhahahaha yea! =] It's called FF! - Özgür D. Cyric
C'mon Robert. The yearning mob awaits - Steve Gillmor
Chris: gang, mob, what's the difference? - Robert Scoble from iPhone
but steve, the mob awaits you too! - Chris Heath
semantics - Chris Heath
and spelling - Chris Heath
the mob can [redacted] itself - Steve Gillmor
that's funny steve, cuz i just [redacted] myself moments ago... and plan to [redact] later tonight as well :-P - Chris Heath
may cause blindness - Steve Gillmor
Do not taunt Happy Fun Mob - Jay Cuthrell
FriendFeed is a gateway drug to Gillmor Gang. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
"can't we all just get along?" - Chris Heath
I've listened to several back episodes of Gillmor Gang over the last few days. They were surprisingly good. Steve comes across as cranky, yes, but underneath he is usually making valid points. - Laura Norvig
I miss Gilmore Gang :( - Robert Burgin
I agree Laura, and I also miss the GG - Chris Heath
How far back did you go Laura? - Chris Heath
Agree with Laura, I miss the gang, steve tells it like he sees it and doesn't just jump onto the newest thing just because its new .. Bring back the Gang ! - Aaron Dyer
Best part of GG were the inevitable meltdowns every few weeks - Mark
Give the order Scoble Sir! I'll have their... well... keyboards!! :P - Özgür D. Cyric
Sometimes meltdowns need to happen to re-focus us all, strong and differing opinions are a GOOD thing - Aaron Dyer
GG reminded me of an open mic night where everyone ends up playing 12-bar blues.... but sometimes you get a jazz guy in there that mixes things up a bit. - Jay Cuthrell
Chris, I listened to 3 episodes from March. I'm just going through all the ones that happen to be on my iPod that I never had a chance to listen to. - Laura Norvig
Scoble -- Do it. The Scoble Mob. - Dave Winer
"The Scoble Mob(ile)" would make a neat logo and imply the disjointed and anywhere anytime nature of the "mob" - Jay Cuthrell
The Gillmor Gang was the best show on the internet in my opinion. I miss it tremendously. Scoble Gang wouldn't be the same even though he still could make a good show. You need Steve at the helm to set the tone. - Wo
so wheres the link to "The Scoble Mob"? Who's going to be on today? - BryanSchuetz
I'm sure Leo would let you put it on the TWIT Robert - BryanSchuetz
Yeah I agree GG was great, and I miss it alot. Scoble is great and was great addition to the gang. But not many can do what Steve did so well. Cut into the bone of the conversation with just one "cranky" rant. I'm pretty sure I would subscribe to a scobleshow also though. I wasn't fond of the change over to Twit, it kinda changed the dynamics of the show. Nothing bad about Leo, the show just wasn't the same with him co holding the reins. - Rasmus Lauridsen
I for one, would love to see Leo [redacted] arrington in the mouth with his mighty "mob", over and over again - Michael Thomas
Indeed, bring back The Gang... - Richard Eckel
In a few days I think Arrington is going to announce he worked with twitter and the police to track the hacker down. - Mark
Steve's a sweet teddybear with strong opinions...just not a great fit on TWiT. I'm sure a new iteration will appear when the time is right. - Web Pixie
I guess nature does not abhor a vacuum. - Jim Posner
FriendFeed on a Sunday morning, very early, so early in fact my ass is still in bed and not listening to a podcast isn't the same without @stevegillmor's gang :P - Johnny Worthington
What does Gillmor do for a day job? I mean, he posts maybe 1 article a week, a couple of tweets. What does he *do* ? - Mark
He comes up with ideas for the schmuck with the puppets - Dave Winer
Hahaha - Mark
lol - Aaron Thorn
I wonder sometimes how Tech people make their living. I mean, your financial past Dave is known (you made some nice bucks back in the day), Leo Laporte has his network, Scoble has his paying gigs with rackspace, but the likes of Feldman and Gillmor and a bunch of others make me wonder what pays the bills! - Mark
Heck, Shel Isreal has a new book coming out! baby needs a new pair of shoes - Mark
Mark: Steve Gillmor's RealTIme Crunchup had 500 people at it. You don't think he figured out how to get paid for that? And why do you need to get paid to talk on the Internet? I did this before I got paid for it. I'm just very fortunate to have found a way to do it all the time. - Robert Scoble
anybody know how blocking works on friendfeed? Is it bidirectional or does it merely silence the idiots? - Steve Gillmor
Steve: if you block someone you no longer can see their stuff and they can no longer see your stuff. The rest of us are unaffected. - Robert Scoble
600, Robert. - Steve Gillmor
Actually, that's not completely true, because the folks you block can't see you anymore they can't comment on your stuff, so we'll notice that over time your items have fewer and fewer idiots commenting on them. That will increase your personal brand. On the other hand, if you block someone who has a lot of engagement (an idiot like me, for instance) then you'll see the artifacts of their interactions with other people. - Robert Scoble
... I do miss it as well. - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
I'm sure that if you did a Gillmor Gang, you would all say that Chrome OS is in fact Android 2.0 and it's going to kill Microsoft, Intel and Apple. - Charbax
Charbax: whenever a blogger says something kills something else that just means it's more interesting than something else. Nothing more. So, if that's true, you'd be right. - Robert Scoble
ok, but isn't new tech supposed to sometimes really cannibalize established tech. If Google OS powers $100 laptops with ARM processors all of a sudden, then who's going to buy Windows/OSX stuff anymore. And how can the old Silicon Valley giants then still make money. - Charbax
Charbax: it's pretty rare that new stuff actually "kills" old stuff and when it does it takes years to happen. Heck, the Web has been killing AOL now for about a decade and AOL still is around. I don't think Google Chrome will get me to stop buying OSX or Windows but it could change my behavior and that is interesting. - Robert Scoble
All major laptop OEMs showed 50 sub-$200 ARM netbook designs at Computex last month, I filmed them all http://techvideoblog.com/... (my Computex videos were on Engadget a dozen times in that week). I think Chrome OS is actually just Google optimizing the browser for all these new cheaper embedded Linux laptops. - Charbax
scoble's definition may work for him, but when I say something's dead, it has a specific meaning -- and it's not that is no longer interesting. RSS has always been and continues to be interesting. But it's still dead. - Steve Gillmor
Charbax: right. Hi Steve. Someday I'll get the Gillmor translation guide figured all out. - Robert Scoble
I miss the Gillmor Gang! The industry is very dull without it... - Michael Pinto
start with Saturday Night Live first 2 seasons - Steve Gillmor
Keep Arrington away and it'll be fine. He killed The Gillmor Gang. Office is dead. Now The Gillmor Gang is dead. "Well now everything dies baby that's a fact But maybe everything that dies someday comes back" haha I make myself laugh, that's what's really important here. - Diego Barros 
Diego: I figure Gillmor Gang will come back right around the same time we stop talking about it. :-) - Robert Scoble
I disagree, Arrington's a tool and the perfect foil on Gillmor Gang. Renew it, intact. Saturdays on FF, TC & Twitter are a bore now... - Thom Kennon
Robert: I'm sure it will, and I think we are all sure it will come back. Just need the dust to settle. Maybe the Gang needs a new home away from TechCrunch (or it may stay there). But yes, it will be back, Steve can't stay away. Oh and BTW, I love Steve's work. That's why I'm here talking about it. - Diego Barros 
They will be back Just will take time - Aaron Thorn
Thom: You think he's the tool every show needs? - Diego Barros 
That's worth elaborating. Respectively, I hear the same broad sweeping, provocative statements that don't include anything in support of that statement as to why. I understand it's the only way to make a point effectively in a short window of time but I've heard too many people say "RSS is Dead" without much to support that claim/point of view. It's like someone trying to drive fashion. - Benjamin Taylor
The iphone represents less than 1% of the global mobile phone market, yet Apple amasses $20 Billion treasury, so I guess you are right. it'll probably take them at least a few years to burn up all that money unless they quickly fire most of their 85 thousand employees. - Charbax
Diego, yep. It keeps things interesting and makes the less toolish look (and act) more brill. - Thom Kennon
Is there any way to listen to the old shows? - Robert D'Alesio
I miss Gillmour gang - calacanis and winers new weekly shows are good but I'd pay to hear Steve and his crew again weekly - andrew from iPhone
RSS is Dead. RSS is live. RSS lives. - Matt Terenzio
It's alive. Alive! - Matt Terenzio
Like others have said, definitely miss it. My podcast lineup's not the same with iTunes showing my GG feed broken. - Micah Wittman
I second the motion to set up the Scoble Mob! - Adrian Scicluna
I agree - Robert Burgin

Teen Girl Falls In Open Manhole While Texting - http://www.zee.me/blog...
Teen Girl Falls In Open Manhole While Texting
Yes, and the family is going to sue NYC. Sorry, if you trip/fall/bump into something while walking and NOT paying attention to surroundings you should not claim it is the fault of someone else. *facepalm* - Janet
i agree but, how many of us text/email and walk at the same time - plenty. I do it but mainly keep it my eye out for people and lamp posts...not a big hole in the ground - Zee.
Dude. A manhole? That probably means she was also crossing a street...haven't seen many manholes in the middle of sidewalks. Just sayin. - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
Ok the girl should have been watching where she was going, however if the manhole was open it should of been blocked, - Kim Landwehr
Rah, manholes do exist on sidewalks. Some cities ban utilities from having manholes in the street, so they must go in the sidewalks. - Beau Liening
definitely seen them in London, got one outside my apartment block - Zee.
I'm sure they exist on sidewalks, just never noticed any in NYC. Kim is right, it should have been blocked if it was open, but this chick is still a moron. Next, people who crash into stuff while driving and texting will be looking for damages :) - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
Just saying someone in that city is going to have a lot of explain to do. Of course the girl will now spend the next month saying yes I fell in a manhole. Yes I was texting. - Kim Landwehr
Rahsheen your right....she is a moron.....should the city workers been a little bit more careful then they were....yes.....but c'mon....a manhole is a big ass hole! How could you not see that, even if you are texting. If you're going to walk on a public street and text at the same time, pay attention where you're walking. - Bonnie Foster
The mother is what's wrong with America. - Ed Shahzade /NextInstinct
+1 Ed - Hutch Carpenter
She should have been watching where she was going, but when you walk along a sidewalk or cross a street, you don't generally expect there to be a gaping hole in front of you. So the manhole should either have been covered or blocked with a movable barrier. It's not safe to leave it open like that, even for people who aren't texting. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)
I agree with you, John. - Kimber Scott
Sure, the manhole should have been blocked/covered IF the city or a utility removed it. However, covers get stolen all the time... - W_B_K

Why Teens Aren’t Using Twitter: It Doesn’t Feel Safe - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
My nieces (24 and 21) grumble it takes too much time they don't have and lacks the privacy of sharing with just friends a la Facebook. Nor do they really see the point of Twitter. - Sally Church
Neither of my kids use it, though my younger one is more likely to than my older one. My youngest will soon be 18 and he says it's because no one he knows uses it. He does blip occasionally. My older one also says no one in her crowd uses it. At 27, she is almost set in her ways. She isn't interested in trying anything that someone she knows isn't using. Both have accounts and they simply sit there. - Sheryl
Another thought that occurred to me, on facebook, I can't speak about myspace having never had an account, my kids, my less tech interested friends as well, they are all using facebook but also play games together there, take quizzes, exchange information. Twitter isn't that sort of environment. If they want to IM, they simply use msn or gtalk. Twitter seems to offer virtually nothing they can't find in other ways. At least on the face of it. - Sheryl
I don't expect a large number of teens on twitter anytime soon. How many teens have blogs or do any king of publishing on the web outside the social networking sites? I don't think of twitter as a social networkign site just because it has a built in aggregator. There are content producers on twitter and then there are consumers. Unfortunately it's expensive (time wise) to consume from... more... - Hoop
@Luke, I'd say this quote "Facebook is about connecting people, and sharing information with each other. The way my friends and I see it, Facebook is a closed network." says to me they aren't doing it for privacy reasons (or still haven't clued in to the whole "network" concept). Anyone who thinks that Facebook is a closed network is in for a big surprise when someone who is a friend of... more... - Kenton
It sounds like it isn't just a safety issue -- teens aren't seeing much value in Twitter. "What? No quizzes? I can't poke anyone? FAIL." Maybe Twitter will have to get more feature-rich before it can become truly mainstream. - Steve Lynch from twhirl
Twitter has privavcy controls, not quite as good as Facebooks and I don't really get their purpose on a micro-blog but it has them. Anyone got a link to an artcle that might help me understand why we would care though? - Hoop
Hell, I ended up gravitating towards Twitter and FriendFeed, and maybe even stuff like last.fm exactly because not many people I know use them, as stupid/strange as it sounds, and I feel that I don't have to worry about "What will distant family member X, or that neighbour I lived next door to 5 years ago think about this?" when I go about my daily rounds of IRCing and social media time... - Tyson Key
Sometimes actual functionality is obfuscated by Appearance/Form/Presentation. If we analyze Facebook and Twitter side-by-side, one can observe how to the untrained and new user eye, Facebook appears as an encapsulated container, whereas Twitter, despite the fact that under the surface one can still apply Privacy and therefore limit the network, can appear open and "unprotected".... more... - Ciro

Murdoch CEO Labels Bloggers “Political Extremists”
"A stinging attack by John Hartigan, the CEO of Rupert Murdoch’s News Limited, labels bloggers and alternative media outlets as “political extremists”. Hartigan implies that bloggers should be jailed as they are in oppressive police states like China and Burma. In a speech to the National Press Club, Hartigan savagely dismissed blogs as, “Something of such little intellectual value as to be barely discernible from massive ignorance.”" - Sean McBride from Bookmarklet
"Hartigan doesn’t seem to grasp the fact that the mainstream media is always found wanting because they habitually lie about news events and spin stories to suit the demands of their corporate owners. This is the very reason why blogs and alternative media outlets have become so popular and have eaten into the mainstream media’s audience share, because people are sick of being treated like idiots, sick of being lied to, and are desperately in search of the truth." - Sean McBride
"Indeed, Hartigan’s boss Rupert Murdoch confessed to the fact that his media empire tried to shape public opinion to support the war in Iraq In other words, Murdoch’s many prominent news outlets wantonly put out propaganda supporting the manufactured case for invasion. Murdoch admitted to this while lamenting the corporate media’s “loss of power” to alternative media and Internet blogs,... more... - Sean McBride
It would be great fun to watch a debate on policy issues between Rupert Murdoch, John Hartigan, Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity on the one hand, and Glenn Greenwald, Andrew Sullivan, Jeremy Scahill and Juan Cole on the other. - Sean McBride
Why maintream media outlets, and their owners, high officials and hired pundits, are in meltdown mode and are wildly lashing out: a single blogger, Andrew Sullivan, exerted much more influence among opinion elites on discussion about recent Iranian unrest than Fox News, The New York Times and The Washington Post combined. Their multi-billion dollar infrastructures are increasingly meaningless. They are losing power fast, and they are angry and desperate. Thus John Hartigan's intemperate comments. - Sean McBride
"In addition, while mainstream media routinely uses anonymous sources and little more than bluster and hot air to back up their stories, blogs provide links to almost every claim they make so readers can research the source evidence for themselves. This is the opposite from Hartigan’s claim that blogs make “radical sweeping statements without evidence.” Indeed, this phrase perfectly characterizes tactics employed by the mass media on a daily basis." - Sean McBride

Or, in other news: water is wet *sigh* - Rene Wirtz
Har har. Who the fuck cares what this shithead thinks? Raise your hand? - Cole Jolley
*raises hand* Why? Because the people who share their social status will think this as well. It will bring a negative effect upon alternative media. - Michael Forian
I thought we all agreed to start typing it as Fox News (R) - Matthew DeVries
(R) for retarded, right? - alphaxion
sure, that too - Matthew DeVries
Oh nos! A negative "effect" upon alternative media. Is that like a death ray? Back-room deals to squelch the life force of alternative media cash flow from their vulture capitalist comrades back at the Bilderberg lounge! Shudder! Hint: it is alternative because they aren't participants. Sniff test: if they are, then it isn't alternative. - Cole Jolley
Don't laugh at this, ironic as it may seem. Small media is starting to get under their skirts, and the MSM is moving to discredit it as a commercial competitor. As the FUD campaign continues, they will enlist political allies. This is serious. They want to strangle the baby in its bed. - Chris Baskind

Just listened to John McCain on Face The Nation, and agree with Joe Klein, he would have been a disaster as President. http://swampland.blogs.time.com/2009...
Dave, is it just me or are you actually a consistently negative person? I've been following your comments and such and it seems like you dislike lots of things. What are some things you DO like? (genuinely interested) - Scott Magdalein

BTW this is a *happy* post -- geez -- I'm happy McCain is just a Senator and not President. No joke, not funny. - Dave Winer
