It's a pity that, while aggregating the demise of named Web 2.0 companies, the authors elected to illustrate it using static graphics, rather than making it a clickable (Web1.5?) image map, at least the second part <http://img.labnol.org/di...>.With granular links pointing to, I don't know, perhaps the TechCrunch Deadpool, or the Crunchbase? - ianf ⌘

what's odd is how many of the acquired companies are still searching for revenue. it's not just the dead companies that fail to meet the first rule of a company. be inherently profitable. - Spotcher

If I understand this correctly, most prevalent post-dotcom-bust dotcom model is to build up a respectable client base assisted by press buzz and faves, then sell out to a media giant that has the financial muscle and managerial competence to turn our cottage into a true industry. - ianf ⌘

you're right, ianf, but that's not a sustainable model. the media giants will one day have to start consolidating, and then the sell it to google concept will wither on the vine, along with the venture capital lottery. - Spotcher from twhirl

plus i neglected to mention the small matter of the worst recession in over half a century. that's enough to get everyone focusing on the missing piece of the web 2.0 puzzle. profit. - Spotcher

No, on paper it's definitely not sustainable, but then strange things have happened in the past. First, there's P.T. Barnum's golden rule; second, there's far too much free capital in the industrialized world chasing after the same few viable business ideas. Neither of which looks like it'll become obsolete in this our life, or next. - ianf ⌘

y, there's always the barnum bandwagon effect. but as far as reponsible capital is concerned, a healthy balance sheet is likely to mean a whole lot more. that won't end frivolous investments and acquisitions based on nothing but it will certainly dent the market for them considerably, and choke off the sense of possibility of both entrepreneurs, private investors and vc's. - Spotcher from twhirl

How many $$$$$$$ by the drain? - Nitin Nanivadekar

All I know is future generations will look down on us as unimaginative country bumpkins, while simultaneously investing in resurrection of dead souls on Krypton (I hear it's near break even point as we speak, wanna join?) - ianf ⌘

Most of them shouldn't have existed in the first place - LANjackal

Saw your comment immediately. - Gabe Rivera

BTW, that was my first FF comment since August '08. - Gabe Rivera

Like a virgin. - MG Siegler

Welcome back then Gabe! - Simon Wicks

I'm tellin' ya. FF's back. Just bookmarked their iphone friendly site. - Mario Sundar

you don't say ;-) - Dobromir Hadzhiev

The day FF will launch real-time, the earth will stand still. - Jérôme Flipo

Jerome: wut? I myself will lurve saved searches AKA track AKA Gillmor's Grail - Gabe Rivera

I meant every smart microblogger will have to move to Friendfeed. Time will only run on Friendfeed! - Jérôme Flipo

Gillmor may spontaneously combust if track hits FF before it restarts on twitter - Adrian

I'd love to hear a list why its "irresistibly useful" for you, Gabe. I'm still quasi-resisting, although I do find it useful. - C. K. Sample III

I will repeat here: it would be great for users if Twitter and FF merged their capabilities. One completes the other. - William Mougayar

William, what does Twitter do that Friendfeed doesn't? - Jérôme Flipo

Hey Gabe - great to see you here - Hutch Carpenter

what recent features excite you - @baratunde

CK, baratunde: essentially, its capacity to extend Twitter in very useful ways. Creating small friend lists here (to track separately from your main feed) is easier here than with Twitter desktop apps, and the results come in in real time. I also turned on IM notifications for select friends. Remember Twitter had IM? They took the feature away. - Gabe Rivera

There goes the neighborhood! :-) - Robert Scoble

The last couple days on Twitter have brought me back to FF as well - Costa Walcott

Gabe - any plans to add services like FriendFeed/Backtype/Reddit etc to Link Search option in Techmeme. Tried Link Search on top headline i.e. http://blogs.zdnet.com/BTL... and got zero results from Google Blog Search/Ask and IceRocket returned 5. - Atul Arora

Atul: huh, putting a URL in FF search does come up with useful results, so I think I'll add FF to the link search list. If those other services have backlink search currently available, please list sample query urls here and I'll take a look. (BTW, to see what Atul's talking about, click "Preferences" on Techmeme, then click "Show Link Search".) - Gabe Rivera

Backtype aggregates across Reddit, YCombinator and FriendFeed - See http://www.backtype.com/comment... - Atul Arora

Gabe bit.ly also does link search and returns FriendFeed, Twitter and Backtype results for all bit.ly version of that URLs e.g. http://bit.ly/info/8XNa4. Since @TechmemeFH and @Techmeme are both using bit.ly the link search is simply adding the + after the URL i.e. http://bit.ly/8XNa4+ for the bit.ly based link search. - Atul Arora

Gabe, here's a link to our connect feature which shows all the conversation around a link (digg, reddit, twitter, friendfeed, hacker news, and posts that link in): http://www.backtype.com/connect... - Mike Montano

Mike - so what is bit.ly using to show comments from backtype. It shows zero comments. Is it filtering comments so that it only shows comments from the blog page? - Atul Arora

Thanks Mike, Atul. I will take a close look at this later and probably add some more link search links. - Gabe Rivera

Atul, yes they're using a method that only fetches comments from the page being queried, though full connect functionality would be a nice addition imo. - Mike Montano

Hey look Gabe is back! :) - Susan Beebe

I agree, except that it should be easier to add an external feed other than through the cumbersome creation of an "Imaginary Friend". - Derek Mahar

My mustache is more lustrous and thick after switching to FriendFeed. I have a lot more energy. Even my wife has noticed certain improvements in my usefulness around the house. Thanks FriendFeed! [I BLUSH] - Jay Cuthrell

I'm still going to say that I think links to friendfeed discussions on blog posts belong on Techmeme. ;) - Thomas Hawk

Wait, is this sarcastic Twitter Gabe or normal Gabe? What persona have you decided to adopt on FF? :) - Matt Cutts

No idea whether it's of use to TechMeme, Gabe, but FriendFeed's API will give you a list of all the entries that link to a specified URL. http://code.google.com/p... You can see it in action with http://ffcheck.com - Ken Sheppardson

I agree I like Friendfeed simplicity. - LaShea Miller

Friendfeed just gets better every day (and is incredibly responsive to user feedback!) - Charlie Anzman

like the notifications air app ... been trying it out. - Julian Lukács

FriendFeed FTW! - (jeff)isageek

@mattcutts: hah, no I'm serious here. FF's current feature set now offers great value to me. I suspect FF still has a major challenge offering a compelling and differentiated product to the Oprah crowd, but that doesn't concern me (and FF may nail that eventually). - Gabe Rivera

@thomashawk: noted. :-) - Gabe Rivera

I have already noticed a massive increase in followers on friendfeed recently. Anecdotal evidence indicates friendfeed is growing (I find it has a higher utility as well) - Jordan Willms

Let's see what Scoble says, I have no idea, he may have done it himself. - Jeremiah Owyang

Cool. No matter what -- the info came from him originally. I knew about it a couple of weeks ago, and suggested he hold onto it as long as possible, but Scoble is Scoble, a force of nature -- and nothing can stop him, not even Scoble. :-) - Dave Winer

May be, may be not ! - Jayavasanthan J

It was not. Last night he told me Mike already knew and was getting more detail. - Louis Gray

Ah thanks Louis, so Robert is his own leak? - Jeremiah Owyang

Well, Jeremiah, he promised me the exclusive on this, so we are all in the same boat. :) - Alex Scoble

To be fair, he probably specified an embargo. - Richard Lawler

Me.. I think Calacanis should thank Scoble for making it a good day to make public that he employed a felon... now everyone is going to talk about what Scoble is going to do next :-) - Ian D. Nock

I've never really understood why Robert didn't go solo. He doesn't need to stand under the umbrella of another organization, he can make it rain on his own. - Todd Hoff

Todd its easier to do the job when you don't have to do the business end. Only person that I know of that has taken the show on his own and is doing ok is Laporte. - Uncle CW™

Now Scoble in the Leo Laporte Network would be interesting. - Uncle CW™

Lets see another possible place... GigaOm... - Uncle CW™

Alex - LOL :D - Susan Beebe

Good point Just CW. I meant more leveraging his own brand for his own greater reward. Work with others on the business side and video editing :-) Maybe something like ScobleCrunchOm :-) - Todd Hoff

JustCW - ooh I like the partnership Leo Laporte idea... GigaOm is good too - Susan Beebe

I think Robert should be CMO for Friendfeed :) If not Robert, then Louis ! hehehee - Susan Beebe

I don't think he could work for a particular company like FF because he has to surf the trends to stay current. An explorer always looks to the next horizon. - Todd Hoff

Robert likes playing too much with other services and software to stick with one web service. - Uncle CW™

Robert could be a sub contractor of the Leo Laporte Network. Just providing the content and Leo doing everything else. Same for GigaOm. Both of these companies are up and coming Internet Media companies. Based on the internet for the internet. The only other company that I would think Robert would jump for is Facebook, but that would be short lived due to the AOL/MySpace issues that occur with fast building Closed community Internet Services. - Uncle CW™

We will know it is the end if FF ever has a position such as CMO. - coldbrew

no surprise....at all. - Rob Sellen :o)

Jeremiah: Arrington called me. He already had the news. - Robert Scoble

In which city are you? I've been teaching basic English to slum children in Benares, 2 years ago. Lots of great souvenirs! - Jérôme Flipo

Hi Jérôme, this school is in Hyderabad. http://rainbowprimaryschool.blogspot.com/. And yep, Hutch, true! - Adam Lasnik

One of the most rewarding experiences of my life was passing out toys, coloring books and clothing with a bunch of friends in Tulum, MX. The smiles on both the childrens and parents faces were priceless. - jcunwired

Lovely lovely! :) - BeeLing

What's amazing to me is just how universal (across India) a love-of-camera has been for kids. I'm not sure if it's an issue of rarely seeing digital cameras, rarely seeing non-Indians in person, or something else... but kids in India have just gone wild (with big smiles or more) when I point my camera at them. Will share more photos later :-) - Adam Lasnik

yeah, always surprised me the lack of comments and discussion for his videos on fastcompany. I think you're right regarding the text element but also frankly videoson the web (at least for me) just a) you never know what ur going to get b) it's not skimmable as u said c) playback on nearly all browsers is never smooth. One final point though is the length of the interviews...I always feel like I have to reserve time for them and by the time I do, it feels too late. - Zee.

See, Allen, that's text too! - Steve Rubel from IM

i could do a video :) too bad the bloggerking is on a tour of australia right now - he'd be perfect for this - Allen Stern

@Allen only if it has trains. More trains please. I watch those. - Steve Rubel

when are we meeting - it's been too long! - Allen Stern

Allen: Bribe with NBA or NFL tickets. Didn't you learn ANYTHING from Robert's thread? SHEESH! - Mona Nomura

Allen we need to, I agree. But only if I get to be in a video. It's king of the web ya know? - Steve Rubel from IM

@Mona Too late for NFL tix. Unless someone gets me into the Super Bowl (us lowly PR people don't go - only the ad guys/gals). - Steve Rubel

Steve: you're right but doing video was the best thing I've ever done for my career. - Robert Scoble

This is so on the money. Just left a comment on the blog, but my reason is that I can read it a heck of a lot faster than I can watch it. - Karoli

@Scoble, I don't doubt it. And I love what you're doing and it's where the ad money is flowing too - but I do wonder about the attention issues. - Steve Rubel

Wish I could post this comment in audio or video but text still remains the king of the web. - Sweyn Venderbush

steve - i'd totally love to come by and do a video interview with you - and @mona - i didn't read any of robert's silly booster threads this weekend :) - Allen Stern

Allen, in the video do I get to say "Ronk-onk-oma. The next stop is Ronk-onk-oma followed by Spe-onk." Then I am there. - Steve Rubel from IM

wait - let's do it ON the LIRR! off-peak of course - Allen Stern

And, purely from a user's point of view... text is extremely efficient to consume (even for a visual person like me). Audio requires more effort. Video monopolizes several senses, and several distinct chunks of the brain. Videos need to be occasional, short, and impactful. - LogEx

Great post and text is certainly king and in some ways I hope it stays that way. - AJ Kohn

It think it should be an integration of different tools. The written word is always on the top and will stay so. A real hard-cover book is hard to beat. Online text is easy to scan, using different tools like RSS feeds, and then to decided to read more about. I am using a video email tool there you could see the response rate and follow the statistics in a neat way. Who has read it, how... more... - Martin Lindeskog

front office:text,back one:code. - Igor Poltavskiy

Video always feels like too much of a commitment to me. It's supposed to grab your attention for some length of time. Text is just faster, easier, simpler. - Nathan Howell

Nathan: do you watch the Superbowl in ASCII? You must be very fun to take on a movie date "no, dear, I would rather just read the Amazon movie reviews." - Robert Scoble

When I want to be entertained, I watch video—movies, TV, YouTube, whatever. But when I want something explained to me, if it's not face-to-face, then it's gotta be text. I don't have time otherwise. - Victor Ganata

who brought the whale? - Noah David Simon

Tuned in for details --> - Dave Winer

cool andrew - that didn't take to long ;) - mike "glemak" dunn

nice !! - Peter Dawson

I bet every1 noticed that the inbetween is "notarized" - every other action is precise in fwd/reverse order :)_ - Peter Dawson

Hoping to hear your big news soon... - Elisabeth McLaury Lewin

Thanks yall, Ive been waiting almost four years for this day. :D - Andrew Baron

waits and waits... - Dawn M. Armfield

Nice to know that hard work and talent stiill have value. - Mark Forman

Still waiting. Tap tap. Hello is this thing on?? - Dave Winer

Should I stay up and wait for the news? - Francine Hardaway from twhirl

May be a week or so due to PR strategy with new partner. I wish I could blog it right now, but alas, I must keep mum from here on out. - Andrew Baron

Life no longer on hold. Roger that. Over. - Dave Winer

10-4 Dave, ready to roll. - Andrew Baron

Whatever it is.. Congratulations! Hope you get more time to play ultimate frisbee ;) - Arjun Ram

Go Andrew, GO! :-D - Luca Conti

My bet is that the new partner news is Revision3. They seem to be getting everyone on board lately. - Ralph Whitbeck

Nope, not Rev3 - Andrew Baron

BBC ? - Majento

ugggh, more shtick about something new and trying to create a buzz. Just announce it already. Goes for everyone in Web 2.0. - Ken

Nope, not BCC - Andrew Baron

:D (PS Andrew, if you keep saying 'nope, not ____' and people keep guessing, when you don't say 'nope not ___,' they'll know) - Ronen

Ronen, that was one of the first things I figured out, I think I was about 3 years old at the time. :D Anyway, I forgot, so thanks. I'll stop confirming or denying but I will finally say this. A much bigger company than anyone has suggested yet. - Andrew Baron

It prevents others from suing to protect it, so you're essentially taking that copyright/trademark out of the protectionist game. That's my take on it anyhow YMMV. - Eric Rost

I actually thought about you when I saw these words trending on Twitter last evening. I feel your pain. :) - Vijayendra (V-Mo) Mohanty

I know that, but I was hoping the (empty) threat of a lawsuit would deter. I think any kind of a suit would have a pretty negative impact on my brand. More so than losing the trademark. In effect, Twitter has cost me my trademark. The real risk now is that someone will do a tech news roundtable podcast and call it TWiT. I guess I'd have to sue then, but I think I've weakened my defense. - Leo Laporte

At least everyone who knows TWiT will forever associate those sites more with This Week in Tech than with Twitter.. a bit of reverse karma? - Eric Rost

@Eric - I guess that makes sense, but it still doesn't open the door for Leo to lament it's use by others though (I'm not trying to offend or take the piss out of you Leo, you and Patrick are among my favorite people in all of media, not just for your takes on tech, but on just academia in general) - Matthew DeVries

@Matt - Luckily (as the No Rights Reserved movement seems to be embracing as well) its a free country where we can piss and moan about whatever we wish! With no penalties even. :) - Eric Rost

We all know what the real TWiT is... accept no substitutes. ;) - John Denver

We all know but what about the uninitiated? - Bob Maltais

@Eric - Well played ;) - Matthew DeVries

I assume asking them nicely to change to "tweet" instead of "twit" wouldn't work? - Robin

You have to sue leo, if twitter goes mainstream, you will see hundreds of 3rd party services with twit*.com names like twit_this.com and twit_that.com and you will suffer. I actually thought twit_or_fit was one of your sites for a few seconds. - David Lloyd

@Leo - "I know that, but I was hoping the (empty) threat of a lawsuit would deter." You'd be in a better position that I to know, but are you sure these other places know you exist? TWiT is the Meet The Press of the tech/Gadget/Web2.0 world, but it's not quite the same as me opening a short order burger window and calling it McDonal's. I think you'd be within your rights and remain "not a jerk" just to write a personal note "hey, you know I'm here right?" - Matthew DeVries

Yeah, twit_or_fit is a direct challenge to TwitFit. - Martin Johnson

at least a change to their logo/presence to not look so similar would be a plus - Bob Maltais

Remember too the longer you leave it, the less protection you have. Imagine if twitter sold to facebook or something, and you had ot protect your name, the courts would say "why didn't you protect it when the company was worth nothing?" - David Lloyd

Send them all a strongly worded memo. Large fonts. CAPS. Oughtta do the trick... - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)

You could go all Web 1.0 on their ass have your minions spam their boards and email their users and sign them up for porn and stuff, I mean since we're being all reactionary and brave with not-our-money. - Matthew DeVries

I say send them a passive aggressive note too. - Robin

There is only one TWiT and long may it stand!! - Bill

I defy anyone to name a single person in tech who is loved by his fans more than Leo - David Lloyd

Steve Jobs? - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF

I can't, Leo FTW! - Martin Johnson

I'd say one of the "girls" in tech, but (I just posted this in a TWiT forums thread) I'm starting to realize that backlash that often accompanies impact in the geek world is making "pretty" geek girls the most closeted subpopulation in the western world. More than furries, more than Perfect Strangers Fanfic/Cosplayers. It's harder for a "pretty" girl to make points/friends in a nerd population than it is for nerds to make in the "coolkid" cliques (jocks, preps, etc.). - Matthew DeVries

Hey, just when I was thinking about getting all gussied up and making some new profile pics LOL - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF

Cause you write Perfect Strangers fanfic? ;) - Matthew DeVries

you mean ALL rights reserved? - Josh Haley

Me? I don't write any fanfic...and I can't for the life of me place Perfect Strangers, unless it's that Balki show (and why would anyone still be writing about that; it aint Star Trek!). - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF

How do reserved rights work with a common dictionary word? I suppose one could easily go after TWiTorFit or TWiTBlogs, but those do not exist, or at least do not appear to be the issue. - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF

Apple is a dictionary word. - David Lloyd

And Applebee's restaurants are still going strong? - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF

To be fair, trying to build a brand around the word Twit made no sense to start with. Way too common. Further, Twit is a name of a specific show, and not very useful as a meta-brand anyway. - Soulhuntre from twhirl

A Google search seems to indicate a fair lot of businesses named "Apple Tree." - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF

@Soulhuntre - If we were just talking about today, I'd have to agree with you, a better brand would have just been to start around Leo himself "Leo's Media", but I imagine he's looking to give it a non-leo name with the hopes that over the next 20 years it builds to include not just him, but other non-him talent, then what happens? You don't want to rename mid-stream. I used to be a fan of VirginRadio's music stream, then they for no logical reason changed their name to Absolute. It killed my love.... - Matthew DeVries

Robert Scoble tweeted about http://www.twitlonger.com/ yet another "twit" - Robin

@dariusmdev - I agree not to use the name "Leo" in it, but essentially naming the network "this week in tech" was way, way too lomiting from the start and the term "twit" was never, ever goign to be really protectable. - Soulhuntre

I vote that Leo changes the name of his space to Today In Tech, surely there's nothing on the internet that would want to occupy that name :) - Matthew DeVries

But if I called my hamburger restaurant MacDonald's rather than McDonald's, I don't think I would be in business for very long. - Barry Biddlecomb from twhirl

@Barry that comparison is way off base. You are talking about two businesses in the same biz. What does Twitblogs, TwittoFit, twitlonger have in common with TWiT on any level? None of them are in the same biz, none of them use similar graphics, phrasing, placement, or association on their site. Additionally twit is a word like water, or hat and this means it is even more difficult to have broad protections against unrelated use. - Roger Kondrat

chicken feet are tasty, but annoying to eat. - clarke thomas

I love the context that the censors are being more protectionist than nationalist (if there's a difference). - Andrew

The censors are doing 1 other major thing....limiting the information to the public. If Chinese citizens truly knew how much in the dark ages they are, there'd be a revolt. - clarke thomas

There isn't much meat on chicken feet. In that sense, those are as bad as wings. - Morton Fox

Robert, Every time a coworker of mine travels to China, they come back a bit surprised. Was your trip what you expected? If so, how? If not, how was it different? - Steve Olson

You only know few about China, 对于中国你了解甚少。 - Chris Qie

Steve: I was in China 12 years ago, so I already was prepared. I'm always blown away by rate of change here. It makes New York seem like a country village. Makes Vegas seem minor league. - Robert Scoble

Yes, Twitter needs re-tweet. - Sweyn Venderbush from twhirl

Twhirl has one. But it would be nice if it was native to Twitter. For that matter, FriendFeed needs one, too. - Josh Bancroft

you should try Tweenky. it's the best feature there. http://beta.tweenky.com/ and you'll like it anyway because the page refreshing itself. - Orli Yakuel

Twitter needs another button: "hide" because you want to get updates from your friends, but sometimes they don't know where to stop ;-) - Orli Yakuel

use twhirl - Ouriel Ohayon

ouriel: twhirl is nice, but I often don't want to start it for a variety of reasons not the least of which is I read Twitter on my iPhone a lot and switch back and forth between FF and Twitter a TON. - Robert Scoble

TweetDeck, dude. Makes Twitter so much better. - Jason Falls

Twitter doesn't care about their UI - their main API lead is writing a book right now so they'll get to that when he's done. - Jesse Stay

Hiya Robert... I use Slandr on my E71. It has a re-tweet button. Massively useful. Nothing to stop you from using Slandr on your normal browser. Blue skies Love Roy - Roy Blumenthal from fftogo

Hey guys, if you haven't already looked at it, http://itweet.net has a retweet button. iTweet.net is what Twitter.com SHOULD be. - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah

Posty and TweetDeck both have that. - Louis Gray

FriendFeed has that too - it's called "like" :-) - Jesse Stay from twhirl

Robert - Tweetdeck offers that feature, but you're wanting it on iPhone...soo that's a problem. Jesse LOL - good idea! - Susan Beebe

Don't you think the easiest way to RT is from inside FF? - Bernie Goldbach

Because when you RT from FF you get context and better meaning. - Bernie Goldbach

I asked Ev about the ability to retweet. In his usual, highly productive mindset he asked "Why can't you retweet?" thinking there was a bug. I said I meant the lazy way, like Twhirl (main reason I use it + shortening). He replied "Oh". "Well maybe" :) - Ed Shahzade /NextInstinct

I don't like re-tweeting except when other people are re-tweeting my tweets. However, I was also going to mention Slandr. thanks to Roy Blumenthal I'll check it out online too - Cathleen Rittereiser

good sugestion Robert. - Michael McGimpsey from twhirl

Bernie, that brings up an entirely different UI issue for Twitter. They have the capability to do threads on the backend. Another UI issue they're neglecting. FF is beating them to the punch on everything. - Jesse Stay from twhirl

Just use Twhirl, there is a retweet button. Comes in very handy. - Tracy Lee Carroll from twhirl

@Gregory Lent If the link is ff.im, that's someone's ff to twitter post - Ed Shahzade /NextInstinct

I use Tweetdeck and that has a retweet button too - Ian May

It really needs one. - Vera Hannaford

Use Twhirl for your Tweeting - David Rosam from twhirl

definitely needs - Murat Bişkin

My hubby may have made similar comments about me, but he got me a tshirt that says "Wargame Widow: Time after time after time." - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF

Yeah my wife is a WoW Widow and the iPhone doesn't help.... - Andy Lewandowski

I'm a wow widow to my wife, and I recently started up a relationship with my iphone, so we're even :) - Nick

my girlfriend calls my iPhone my other girlfriend - Brad Davis Seal

In the early days of the PC, didn't we hear complaints from Computer Widows. (A back formation from football widows). Plus ça change... - Michael Markman

Sarah Austin??? It's my real name :) Sarah Meyers was a stage name. - Sarah Austin

More sites with pics of hot blondes are always in demand. - James Joyner

Press the F5 button a lot and the addiction gets even better LOL - Susan Beebe

Welcome to the addiction Sarah. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg

how come yesterday when we had coffee you said CN was your new favorite web site? - Allen Stern

You and me both Sarah. I hope to talk to you more on this. - Dennis Jackson

who's your daddy :-) - Dobromir Hadzhiev

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww :) - Mike Reynolds

My sister gave birth on the 5th and still hasn't posted pics. These make me want to see them even more! (Very cute by the way!) - David Cook

How nice! - Steve Rubel

More photos on my younger sister's .Mac Gallery: http://gallery.mac.com/malinda... - Louis Gray
