Kevin Sablan liked this
Good roundup of simple ways to make a wordpress site mobile-friendly. Includes WP themes and 3rd-party services.
- Alexandre Gamela
Just was talking to http://www.friendfeed.com/garin and we came to the conclusion that if you are going to comment on a friendfeed item you should either be first or last. Why? They always are visible. So, here's your chance! :-)

zaloom!
- Kevin Johnson
If we are really cool we'll get on this list http://friendfeed.com/search...
- Robert Scoble
Kevin is first, who will be last? I just want to be the penultimate commenter!
- Robert Scoble
first and last words are all that matter on the FF.
- rob friedman
Okay. Everyone stop NOW!
- Kevin Sablan
great. now FF is going to be filled up with those annoying ass people that comment "FIRST!" on everything.
- Enrique Gutierrez
ok
- Shawn Snodgrass
Aw crap, I could sit here all night waiting to be last, so may as well comment now.
- Sharon McPherson
8th!
- rob friedman
Any worthy FF thread will engage interested parties enough to read most of the comments.
- iTad
Do I get bonus points if I end up being the thread killer?
- Kevin Johnson
Kevin you could always delete your 1st comment. :)
- rob friedman
Kevin! Yes, and we're having a great time watching this. It will get old fast, but for now it's really fun!
- Robert Scoble
Dang it I am 5 min too late. So I guess it is like posting on a blog post, you always want to be first.
- Jeff
Hey Enrique.. that would suck. Oh... LAST! Oh Jeff... Last.
- Ted Bradford II
That's why these threads just go on and on and on... people just want to have the last word. ;-P
- Chris Heath
Chris: I don't want the last word. I want the penultimate word. :-)
- Robert Scoble
Nope, I like the riffng of the conversation. Jump in anywhere. Enjoy the free flow of ideas and worry not about being seen by the scanners. Those who take the time to expand the thread have such a richer experience.
- michael sean wright
if i wasn't so tired i'd play that out Chris (as my last post was truly in jest). Late here in East TN. Gonna go tip a few cows and call it a day.
- Ted Bradford II
Ted: so was mine ... didn't you catch the winky tongue? (i'm on cape fear so i'm soon to bed as well)
- Chris Heath
Good point, unless you're actually using the RT chat aspect of FriendFeed, I guess...
- Andy Werner
I actually come back 5 days later to make comments so I can have the last word. Everyone has already forgotten what the conversation is about by then.
- Jeff
Chris- I did, but needed a segue into a cow tipping joke... cause I've never done so before. I do know this, tomorrow I will use the word 'penultimate' and dazzle family and friends. Hope alls quiet on the Cape bro. These storms have been a biotch. Annnnnnd Jeff just trumped us all. Tell him what he's won Enrique... nite all.
- Ted Bradford II
Second to last is always visible on my screen. :)
- Bwana ☠
Clever way to get the most commented upon comment on FF ever....
- Barak B
Ted, if you haven't dozed off- i'll have you know that the coastal winds tend to keep a lot of the storm systems at bay- if you're close enough to the water - a mile or 5 inland can make a big difference some days - and spot t/storms can be localized around here big time - for instance yesterday it rained (for a short period) at my house while i was at work 5 miles away getting no rain - only knew cuz the ground was wet when i went home for lunch... ok - it's really time for sleep now - g'nite FriendFeed
- Chris Heath
so in other words, last is not least?
- Julie Bovee Hill
Barak: check out this idea for a long thread (still nowhere near the longest on friendfeed, but the idea.. ) http://friendfeed.com/ajbatac...
- Chris Heath
Chris: Yes, that is a good one too. This is better though and I predict with end up with more comments.
- Barak B
Yay! I am last as of now :)
- Amit Nangare
lets see how long this lasts for! :)
- Paul Kinlan
Another one of these? From Scoble this time? Wow. BTW, last post.
- Chris Charabaruk
I will be the penultimate commenter!
- Garin Kilpatrick
That way I can be the ultimate one.
- Chris Charabaruk
Nope.
- Barak B
friendfeed should allow for "liking" comments so top comments can be the ones shown, no matter the chronology. And allow the users to watch comments by likes, threaded or chronologically.
- Charbax
A blatant attempt at gaming the FriendFeed statistics for no real useful purpose... Oooh, can I be last, Please Please!!!
- Peter Kelley
No, Peter, you may not be last. That's my position.
- Chris Charabaruk
Last Post!!!
- Richard Hurt
well, the last comment is always changing, isn't this like having your 5 nanoseconds of glory?
- Liviu Lica
This thread is now closed.

- Amit Morson

- Robert Scoble
In a different timezone you can have the advantage :)
- Rene de Vries
Okay, people, nothing to see here. Just walk on. This is the last comment. It's all clear now.
- Ruud van Wijngaarden
What if you write backwards? Does that help?
- Kieran Daly
Okay, people, nothing to see here. Just walk on. This is the last comment. It's all clear now. says Ruud van Wijngaarden
- Julian Edward
It would be nice if we could pick the number of comments shown at the top and bottom, I'd like to see the first 3 and last 3 for example.
- Kol Tregaskes
I usually read all the comments of something I'm interested in. I don't just read the top and bottom ones so I don't care where I come in. I comment on what I want to because I want to say something. It's nice if the original poster reads/responds to it, but not absolutely necessary. Most of the time the most fun/interaction comes from other commenters.
- Molly

- Julian Edward
Sounds like an online auction...Is there any deadline? Then I'll prepare my winning speech 17,3 sec beforehand.

Nope

- Peter Kelley
ok, I'll hold on to last place for visablity!
- PaulJohnson
I was going to add something witty, but i got nothing. sorry....
- Mike Nencetti
No problem. Participating is more important than winning, we say in the Netherlands.
- Ruud van Wijngaarden
It's the long-tail of real-time
- zeroinfluencer
Excellent point David ;)
- Don Bonaddio
Being last has one drawback. It makes you a thread-killer. I'm not sure some of us like being that. Sometimes I'd rather see the discussion keep going.
- George Hall (Australia)
Do like the suggestion made earlier that there should be bonus points for being the thread-killer...
- George Hall (Australia)
but who wants to be last?
- mcvictor
Ok Robert, please close this thread now. ;)
- Meryn Stol
I disagree, and I'll tell you why below...

Always happy to be last .... but it probably won't last :)
- Charlie Anzman

You'd be right Charlie :P
- Jay
And there is nothing I hate more than reading that first comment that childishly claims "First!" and nothing more. "Last!" (until the next comment comes along)
- Jim Espinoza
By the way, I'm the last commenter in a very participated thread recently started by Robert Scoble, but that didn't gain me almost any new follower. I'm fine with this though, as I'd find silly being advantaged for being the last commenter ;-)
- Opensource Obscure
Agreed :)
- Fabian De Simone
How do I stick my comment to the bottom so that it will always be last? :)
- Jeff Sayre
How long can this go on?
- Tom Landini
Last! ...for now
- Scott
So this if why Scoble goes nuts over realtime feeds - he can be the first to comment.
- Tom Landini
Well, every comment gets to be last for at least a couple of seconds. Or fractions of a second with RT.

Not everyone is on here to market themselves to infinity. Why people, other than people who actually make money off of exposure, insist on wanting the most friends on ff/fb/ms/tt is beyond me. Not everyone is a Scobilite! Yes I did just make that word up... where do I copyright it? lol

@Jeff, it's not spam if you opt in ;-)

Robert: That would be a shame. You'd be up $10 at least though :)
- Garin Kilpatrick
The last shall be last

There can be only one.
- Kevin Johnson
I seem to be last on many of Steve Gillmor's posts @techcrunchit, the kiss of death to many a conversation. I should be so lucky here.
- Aron Michalski

A good way to stop? - Scoble puts in his penultimate comment Kevin Johnson says zaloom!

first is forever....last is a very transient honor indeed.
- guruvan (Rob Nelson)
and being both is probably meaningless, but I'm still going to claim it
- Kevin Johnson
Do others ever get more than 2 comments on their posts? :)
- Cameron
I'm lucky to get 2.
- JCunwired

- Drew Lucas
So, if you are last and then someone comes behind you, should you re-comment to be last again?

- WoH: Minding her Steves
ANd so I do and then another and another :) Fun huh.
- Raymond Marr aka Knatchwa

- Garin Kilpatrick
Last
- Michael Fidler
I like most anything distilled...information, bait...(distilled bait...is that like the worm at the bottom of the mezcal?)
- guruvan (Rob Nelson)
The difference would be that in this case the worm will stay on the bottom. No matter what.
- Ruud van Wijngaarden
I reckon it'll be Ruud van Wijngaarden
- Julian Edward
I am not quite sure about that. But willing to accept it. (Wait! You just called me a worm? The most underrated but valuable animal on the planet, that brings us fertile ground and eats dead stuff? It is a nice compliment, but might be a bit much).
- Ruud van Wijngaarden
No, No! - I didn't mean you worm. Although as you say they are useful beings. I do hope you'lll be in heroic position of last commenter! This is a case of the last shall be second. (Kevin Johnson being first of course). Scoble is penultimate we would hope. I'm aiming for 5th to last!
- Julian Edward
Yesterday somebody asked: 'if you pass the number two in a race, which place are you in?' and I answered wrong. Passing the last one in this race will be hard...
- Ruud van Wijngaarden
The last comment shall be mine! :)

Woot, last comment. ;)

If only I could puncture the depths of Scoble's scratch-the-surface brain fart, techno-vangelizing, then I'd actually care WHOLE HEARTEDLY about this meaningfully retarded thread.
- The Real sofarsoShawn
The only way this thread can be made even more ridiculous and anachronistic is to move it to identi.ca.. Myspace would work, too.
- Tal Shafik
Interesting ;)
- Alex
And since you can't guarantee being last unless you are the originator of the thread or can convince the originator to end comments (but since Robert is AWOL that is unlikely) -- you better be first. ;-)
- Brian Sullivan
Stuff
- Jonathan Hardesty
Okay, admittedly being the last IS visible...but who REALLY wants to be the thread-killer?
- George Hall (Australia)
apparently, some people http://friendfeed.com/ajbatac... http://friendfeed.com/silas21... http://friendfeed.com/mikenay... (notice 2000+ comments!)
- Chris Heath

- George Hall (Australia)
Hey, this one's from May... it's about to hit its own anniversary!
- Chris Heath
I'm surprised this only has a little over 200 comments.
- Jason Williams
201
- David Gross
213 ? Original Zlaloom! + 212 more comments including this one. The last one.
- Julian Edward
don't be so sure about that... there's lots of people who like to be thread killers or last... just wait and watch
- Chris Heath
yes - that's very true
- Julian Edward
Sage words Robert - Sage words indeed!

See??? I told you!

I'm guilty of #4, but #7 is so pervasive that I believe it's the accepted norm now.
- Kevin Fox

#1 is the one I find most common and most irritating.
- Mahendra (SkepticGeek)
In college, I had papers turned back because of the i.e./e.g. distinction, so it's ingrained. What about nauseous vs. nauseated? Or neglecting an 's' when forming the possessive of singular a noun that ends in 's'?
- Mark Trapp
affect/effect really bug me (when I read it). i.e., e.g. I'm totally guilty of that.
- anna sauce
i.e. / e.g. has never given me much trouble, i just remind myself of the latin and decide which phrase fits.
- Daniel J. Pritchett
... what's the Latin?
- anna sauce
Languages need to change all the time. Even Stephen Fry says it's not worth worrying about. Although I'm often found guilty of being pedantic, if he says it's fine to user "fewer" instead of "less" then it's fine by me.
- Tony Ruscoe
id est (that is) vs. exempli gratia (for example)
- Daniel J. Pritchett
Anna: i.e. — id est, that is. e.g. — exempli gratiā, for example. The way I was taught to remember the difference is that i.e. could also stand for "in essence," which designates not an exemplar, but the essence of what it actually is.
- Mark Trapp
Wow, not I feel ready for the National Grammar Rodeo in Canada
- RAPatton
Its funny because as a non native English speaker, I've never made those mistakes. I make tons of mistakes, but their are all different than those ones (i.e place of the words, which have a big affect on the fluidity of my sentences). If I were born American, then I would probably of forgotten those basic grammar rules just after school...
- Jérôme
#9 is problematic for programmers, always need a "then" statement.
- Victor Ryden 美久太阿
It's (<- see what I did there) a great list, but it does not tell people the reason why they are incorrect, or used incorrectly, and how to stop doing it.
- Tim Hoeck
LOL @ Jérôme. That was painful.
- Anika
Tim: the list is for "flagrant" mistakes, which presumes that the mistakes are commonly made due to lapse of judgement, not a lack of knowledge about their correct use.
- Mark Trapp
"loose" for "lose" annoys me like no other.
- Darren
Seeing #5 always makes me laugh.
- John (bird whisperer)
The sad thing about this list is that I see those mistakes so regularly at work, that I've had to learn to ignore them when I read e-mails or presentations. Because otherwise, I will stab my own face off with my letter opener. So much for being surrounded by educated professionals...
- Hookuh Tinypants
Loose for lose drives me right up the wall. So do all of the others.
- Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
Here are five or six more common errors, I recommend memorizing the list: http://www.wsu.edu/~brians...
- Patrick
#7 spawned one of the better professor vs. professor discussions I overheard in college; basically, one argued for the rule, the other argued that it was arbitrary, stupid and outdated. they were much more eloquent than I can reconstruct.
- Jennifer Dittrich
I'm glad I never did any of the mistakes. Except for #9. Years of programming in BASIC (or any variants of) have ingrained in me that "If" must be followed by "then" or I'll get an error message.

I *am* a Grammar Nazi. Don't get me started on "apostrophes".
- m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
I'm not a grammar nazi, but I do judge people's intelligence by how they write... are those necessarily the same thing?
- anna sauce
I don't do these 10, but a [#11] often trips me up (but Word's grammar checker catches me) "that" versus "which" -> "which" should be used only when picking between two items, but a 40-yr-old habit has me writing "which" all the time when I shouldn't. [#12] that really sounds weird to me is improper use of "we"/"us"

On Mobiles, There’s No Stopping Webkit - http://gigaom.com/2009...
Mike Chelen, Jesper Lind and Kevin Sablan liked this
"Today Research in Motion bought Touch Mobile, a Toronto-based company developing a Webkit-based mobile browser. Maybe it’s time for Microsoft to throw in the towel and officially get on the Webkit bandwagon as well. With the BlackBerry still the reigning champion of the smartphone business, at least in North America, the Webkit is about to get a big boost. Even Mozilla’s Firefox Mobile has an uphill climb ahead, though one can’t blame them for trying. Many mobile industry insiders believe that the browser is one of the biggest drivers of the mobile Internet boom."
