oh yeah? well i just had an mind-blowing hot chocolate with THE most important person in North America. I wish I could share, but I've got to rush to my submarine - Baratunde Thurston
Oh yeah? Me, I've got a petit-dejeuner with the most important person in the world! and I mean it! It's was with my Mom! - directeur
@baratunde don't tell them about the Submarine! To the BUNKER! - Erin Kotecki Vest
remember you were asking about the passive-aggressive thing? this is related... the general populace don't like to hear "i know a cool secret and i'm not telling you"... its just not friendly. - Jeremy Toeman
good point Jeremy, I just can't refrain from sharing, even when I can't share so there is no negative objective, just can't refrain :) - Loic Le Meur via twhirl
TEASE! Points for Baratunde and directeur though. - Yolanda
Loic, I understand you think you're doing some amazing things but comments like this show me that you have a higher-than-thou persona, which many people don't like. - Kambiz Kamrani
I think that I saw a post with a nifty chart showing the phases of early adoption. This would seem to fall into the myspace meme of "I'm cooler than you." Perhaps, I just misinterpret. Not really a big deal to me personally. I do hope that you were fed well. ;) - Mathew A. Koeneker
just 3 years old, but older ones look up to you, nice one kiddo - Dobromir Hadzhiev
~~~~~~ CONGRATULATIONS MIKE and TEAM !!! ~~~~~~ Excellent coverage and down to earth analysis... keep it up! (remember your famous "twitter" post??) I loved that post man! such in-depth analysis! wow! - Susan Beebe
WTG techcrunch. You have changed the game. now get some sleep! - Laurent Courtines via twhirl
Congratulations - Keep up the awesome reporting - Josh Smith
Only three years? I remember when Dave Winer did a podcast warning you that advertising was going to really hurt TechCrunch. Keep up the good work. You are always a go to source. - Christian Burns
Excellent work Seesmic team. Looking forward to the Seesmic integration. One thing though: would LOVE to have the actual comment appear for FF notifications and not just that there is "someting" newin the parent item. Right now I have to stop what I'm doing and go back to Twhirl to find out what the "something" is (hope that made sense) - Scott O'Raw via twhirl
twhirl is the killer messaging app :) - Adrian via twhirl
Is scroll issue fixed? Its annoying.. really.. - Jigar Mehta via bTT
It's slow, and the scrolling is barely usable... Is it because of my 512MB RAM? - directeur
I like it, I like havin two windows. What I don't like is having empty lines for @ and (heart) replies, i.e. if there's nothing there, don't tell me there's nothing there for every single entry - Ivan Pope via twhirl
I really like the Friendfeed interface with the avatar. well done. - ryangraves
You told us about having Nike for so long! that's the beginning of a new era, not only video partners, but partners using a video tool! lots of opportunities are coming! - ledretch
create seesmic rooms where nike can showcase new shoes, tips, run contests for fans to post seesmic video responses and mingle - Pokai
do a cool Seesmic product demo with Nike's classic theme "Just Do It!" all over that demo ...do it with fast upbeat dance music in background and lots of "Just Do It" all over the place to get Nike excited about Seesmic! - Susan Beebe
“Seesmic, Friendfeed and Twitter next to each other in a test version of Twhirl. Adding tons of Friendfeed experience improvements in there, Marco rocks.”
Is twitter's api actually back up at 50 req/hr? - Shawn Farner
The old Twhirl works for me in linux for me, it just won't remember my password. - Daniel E. Renfer via twhirl
Yes Marco does. Twhirl is becoming my info hub. And if Twitter dies, who cares I'm sure Pownce, Jaiku or whatever could be swapped in - Tris Hussey via twhirl
I hate Facebook because of this. Who are THEY to tell me you have too many friends? - Robert Scoble
They have good reason for that but still... there are power users like you and Scoble (and whole bunch of others) that would like to have more connections than what is possible. - Daniel Schildt
I guess guys like you and Scoble should not have user profiles but be groups, to be honest. I'm sure the groups have larger limits. - Gerard van Schip
Gerard: the problem with groups is that they don't have things like apps. - Robert Scoble
You can never have too many friends... facebook must be wrong! :) - Lucretia Pruitt
Loic, Robert: Is Facebook slow for you guys? - i.e. is there any truth to Facebook's claim that the 5,000 friend limit is there for performance reasons? - Mike Doeff
Mike: it's sometimes slow, yes, but never as bad as Twitter's direct messaging capabilities are for me. - Robert Scoble
Mike, yes it is sometimes slow but they fixed the add a friend now much faster. However I can't add any anymore but you know that already! - Loic Le Meur
Igor: the bans are only if WE add more people, not if people add us. I haven't added someone myself to Facebook in a very long time. In fact, I really don't use Facebook much at all. - Robert Scoble
Loic, try to add yourself as a friend to yourself and check what happens ! - Ron Shoshani
why the hell would I want to add myself as a friend to myself !? - Loic Le Meur
@Ron S -- Shhhh!! Doing this will open up a Scrabuloous paradox and rip the fabric of space and time and release the Zuck demon to reign over the universe for four Quatoon-epochs. (That's pretty much what's happening anyway, but we don't want to accelerate te process.) - john conroy
Lucky you!! Think of all the poking you're going to get!! - Mark O'Neill
that's hillarious & 1 of the reasons I hate facebook! Who r they 2 tell Anyone they've got TOO many friends! Wth?! Is there such a thing?! Shheeeesh! (shakes head) - Deborah Micek
In Soviet Russia, you do not have too many friends. Too many friends..have..you? - Mike Lewis
Loic, in your avatar on Seesmic you look just like a British comedian, Lenny Henry, has anyone ever told you that? - Ivan Pope via twhirl
TV is not a total waste of time, Video on the web is not a total waste of time. Watching a talking head drink coffee and orange juice and pontificate is however a total waste of time. - Brian Sullivan
Brian, thank you so much for your compliments - Loic Le Meur
I was afraid you've lost your mind; too much sun, too much wine at your last brunch ;) you've scared me! Seesmic, a waste of time!? wow... - ledretch via twhirl
As Loic says: "you choose. You don't have to be there." We all choose where we wish to invest our attention. Some of the things I deem interesting and engaging are a total bore to others. There you go. Oh, and I HATE tv. - melmcbride
Great decision with the acquisition Loic, hope you already know how to deal with copyrighted content over there :) - Svetlana Gladkova
Svetlana, yes, I found a solution with copyrighted content on Google, we will turn off video upload on YouTube. - Loic Le Meur
Loic, I hope you aren't going to turn it all off, I like some of the things over there especially the record companies who put up there content for people to listen to and enjoy!! - Paul
Of course... everything should be filmed real-time! Even the copyrighted material... :) - directeur
Dave are you buying Youtube too? Ah. We're competing then, we should talk to try not to make the acquisition price not go too high. - Loic Le Meur
I offered them $82 billion, maybe I should try lowering the offer? - Dave Winer
Let's see, I've got a dime, a penny and a piece of gum with pocket lint all over it. Can I buy a share? - Jack Carlson
Dave, you are definitely pushing the prices too high, not good for any of us, let's agree on the right market value. I am happy to leave it to you if you do a good API I can work on. - Loic Le Meur
وای مریم اینو از کجا پیدا کردی ,خیلی خوشمزن:)) - shandiz
i suddenly remembered my obsession with jello molds, esp rainbow ones. - edythe
My favorite drink when out was coffee, Kahlúa, and Baileys (had to teach them how) so I could be a wide awake drunk from the start of the night on. This is nearly that with jello. WOW - Michael W. May via twhirl
yes. i wish i could spend a whole couple of days just making jello molds... - edythe
I gotta get Maryam on FriendFeed or Twitter (or both). Then you'd know they are watching a movie while I goof off online. - Robert Scoble
I got mrsth on FriendFeed. She still doesn't like how much time I spend on here though :) - Thomas Hawk
I won't put my girlfriend on Twitter because I'd never hear the end of it about how late I stay up. With Twitter there'd be document proof and "around midnight" wouldn't fly as my story to her anymore. - Michael Beck
Michael, but at least if you are on Twitter at midnight you aren't getting into any real trouble that she should be worried about, right? - Thomas Hawk
@Thomas - I agree with that statement 100%! It's just the point that I'm awake so late and not in bed. You know how [some] women are... lol - Michael Beck
You checked! Tout de même! How do we say "tout de même" in ENG btw! cannot wait for this version! Will it be able to work when XMPP is down? Or should we have two version to stay tuned? - ledretch via twhirl
