The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even one term, but America – I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you – we as a people will get there. - Kim

Who will be the next Doctor Who now that David Tennant says he will be leaving the show. A number of us really think Dylan Moran would be the perfect choice. - Kim

"Thanks for writing this up. I really enjoyed reading your thoughts about this. It would be great if they put some of the money into Torchwood - I didn't know they were going to have a truncated season and I really enjoy that show too. I wonder what Dylan Moran would think if he knew so many people thought he would make an awesome Doctor Who. Even if he wasn't interested, I'm sure he would be flattered." - Kim

"Excellent way to make your point Jacob. And I love Yahtzee's reviews - very funny and very different. Even if you don't really play games, his Indie games are a hoot." - Kim

"I used to post on a lot of different topics but it seems to have focused on WordPress, a little bit of Twitter and the odd article with personal information (my readers seem to like the personal stuff). So, my article ideas usually come from things I've been trying out on my test site or from questions that people ask me. Other ideas pop into my head all the time - I just have to be sure to write them down immediately or I won't remember them. I have over 70 drafts right now containing various things that I might want to write about. Even if I don't write them all on the weekend, I usually plan out what I'm posting that week in advance." - Kim

“Got my first Qwitter unfollowing email. I'm devastated.”

email is true, devastated hardly :) - Mike Fruchter
:) I don't think Qwitter is going to take off, so I wouldn't worry about it :) Oh, and .. install digsby! - Tim Hoeck
I'm intrigued by this. Why would you worry about who's unsubscribing enough to sign up to Qwitter in the first place? They either follow or don't. Maybe it's because I have few followers that I really would only care if someone I had had email or other exchanges unsubscribed and in that case, I would hope I'd know why they did it. Weird. - WorldofHiglet
@Tim, It's on the list! - Mike Fruchter
Don't feel bad Mike ... I'm up to 6 ??? BUT, the ratio of new people to 'quitters' is 9-1. Some people just have bad taste :) - Charlie Anzman
Would be nice if there was a Qwitter for Friendfeed. - Morton Fox
If I were you, I would hunt them down, make them give you 5 reasons why they unsubscribed. - Tim Hoeck
Now I know why I don't use Qwitter. Who follows you isn't important. Who you are following IS VERY IMPORTANT. Oh, by the way, I'm following you because you rock. So screw the losers who don't want to follow someone who rocks! - Robert Scoble
WorldofHiglet, personally it does not bother me. The " I'm devastated" was just being humorous. In all seriousness, I like the idea of unfollowing notifications. I wrote a post that touched on it a while back. http://michaelfruchter.com/blo... - Mike Fruchter
Got my first yesterday. I've been grieving all day. NOT. - Jack Carlson
LOL, Jack - Derrick
:) I didn't actually think you were devastated....just wondered why you would sign up for it at all. Needed a way to fill the old inbox? ;) - WorldofHiglet
Robert, that is why I follow you as well, ROCK ON :-) - Mike Fruchter
@Charlie, 6? You are the most likable guy on FF! - Mike Fruchter
I had to go look and it's for those that want to quit smoking it seems - Ian May
I'm trying out Qwitter simply because I value feedback, positive and negative. Feedback is part of the conversation of life. - Jack Carlson
Ian: ..well that would make more sense...! - WorldofHiglet
ok, Jack, but does it tell you why they quit? Because if not, I can't see the value. - WorldofHiglet
@Ian, wrong Qwitter. This is the one http://useqwitter.com - Mike Fruchter
It appears the site is down currently. - Mike Fruchter
Mike, don't worry, you have 200+ people who love following you, me included. heh - Daynah
@WorldofHiglet, no particular reason. I always need to try all the new toys out :) - Mike Fruchter
Now that's reason I can relate to! :) - WorldofHiglet
Daynah, likewise :-) - Mike Fruchter
Got it Mike. Yeah, I don't care how many followers I have per se. It's a new toy like you said. - Ian May
@WorldofHiglet - It tells you what you last tweet was before they unfollowed you. Sometimes it makes sense, other times it's a coincidence. I signed up for the humor. Someone unfollowed me after I said thank you to someone else. :-) - Kim
When I got mine I read my tweet a few times and realized, no, you will never please everyone at every tweet - Chris

"After reading this article today I did some research on permalink structure but did not come up with a definitive answer. I do use yoast.com for a lot of my WordPress information and in one of his SEO articles he recommended only using the post name. But I am not clear as to why it would be better - I should probably ask him. There is a plugin you can use if you do decide to change your permalink structure - I installed it when I changed mine and didn't have a single problem. This is the plugin http://urbangiraffe.com/plugin... and if you are interested in the yoast article it is http://yoast.com/articles/word..." - Kim

"Mike - Wow! You've covered it all. It actually seems exhausting to me :-) I agree with Mark that there are differing views on permalinks. I actually prefer to remove the date from mine and use only the post title. And I was really happy to see your mention of diigo. While I still prefer delicious, diigo does allow you to bookmark to all three sites like you mentioned. When I first started doing that it was more for bookmark insurance - if one site disappeared my bookmarks would still exist somewhere else. Only later did I think of the social aspect of it. I am, however, often hesitant to share my own stuff. You suggested sharing your own content in Google reader. Is that really an acceptable practice? On a side note, I am slowly trying to spend more time with friendfeed :-)" - Kim

"Thanks Jacob. Commentluv is at http://www.fiddyp.co.uk/commen...... but I'm not sure if it works with disqus or not. The one that lists the top commenters with their gravatars is ZdComments Widget at http://www.zen-dreams.com/en/2...... Time is good too - I answer every comment and I know you do too. If I ever got a ton of comments I don't know if I could keep that up. I also visit the sites of the people who visit mine and comment if I have anything to say about what they've written. I've been sick the last couple of days and too fuzzy headed to really work so I started going through my list of twitter followers and visiting and commenting too but I know under normal circumstances I wouldn't have time to do that. I've found some interesting and some strange stuff :-)" - Kim

"Any users? On my site I have a top commenters section with links to their websites. I also use the commentluv plugin so the commenters also get links back to their last article. I'm also slowly working on a theme that I will release for free. Do you have any other ideas?" - Kim

"I think that overall the tech community needs to calm down about the current financial situation, especially if they can ride it out by scaling back by simply not buying new clothes or eating out less frequently. I'd say they don't really have any problems then. There are a lot of people losing their homes and their jobs. There are hard-working people who aren't paid a livable wage and don't know how they are going to afford heat this winter. These are the people who should be freaking out not the people who might have to put off purchasing an iPhone. I'm not trying to be negative here - I just thing the tech community as a whole needs to put things in perspective." - Kim

"Whenever I visit I always end up commenting on 2 or 3 articles :-) Perhaps it is an age difference but I was not taught to multitask while growing up. I can do it but find it distracting and that it decreases my productivity. Why is it increasingly becoming a required skill when study after study shows that it makes us less productive and more prone to make mistakes (and that isn't just old people but everyone)? This link is just one example that I found http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03......" - Kim

"Thanks for writing about this, Jacob. I saw the Wired article yesterday and completely dismissed what they were saying. It's amuses me that they are telling me to stop blogging on a blog. It's like when people announce they are leaving twitter forever on twitter. And I should stop blogging because Calacanis did? Puhleez ... The article also smacks of early adopter-itis. "Well, we were blogging 4 years ago and now it's becoming mainstream so it's time to move on." There is an awful lot of crap out there and spammers and trolls but that doesn't mean we should stop what we're doing - especially if we enjoy it. And no one has ever left a comment on my site telling me to suck mccain's ass. I kinda wish someone would (now, don't run over there and do that Jacob :-) because it would make me laugh so hard." - Kim
