"Niyi: you can do that by using the "send message" button. From there you can post to your profile, send directly to a contact or also post to a group which is neat functionality." - Lou Paglia

Metrics are always top of mind. This is a great way to look at things to keep the metrics you track relevant and assign goals to them. - Lou Paglia

Foursquare is going to be an interesting company to watch because it is clear location data and location based connections are one of the hot frontiers. - Lou Paglia

"Still wonder whether it is the entrepreneur leaving to go back to their country is the biggest loss for the US or the same thing happening with people in the sciences who get their PhD's in their respective discipline and doing phenomenal research to just have to go back their countries. This happens every year as well and should very much be part of this conversation. Both are big losses for the US and are potentially very correlated." - Lou Paglia

"This has huge potential. Will they go only B2B against the likes of Hoover's, D, DJ and other players like Yahoo! Finance and Google Finance. There is a real compelling possibility where they could integrate the likes of Gist capability. I'm still not a believer in "enterprise" tracking and "personal" tracking. I want one universal dashboard that I can segment." - Lou Paglia

@defrag it is okay. that doesn't include to and fro nor does it include TV timeouts :) - Lou Paglia

"This is a nice approach and one of those that seems "obvious" but is not b/c that is not often how companies think. The typical approach is "we built this API, they should thank us" when the real goal is "use" and a lift to overall engagement, whatever that may be. Very smart of have the developer community "participate" in the revenue model, it is a win-win incentive. As David says below, it is like what Apple and FB does for apps. I'm not sure with the business model of Twitter's API, but as revenue models gear up there, it will be interesting to see if this type of model takes hold and develops diverse set of revenue models on the communication stack." - Lou Paglia

Search on logo click: "bar code". Ahh, the teaser logos... - Kevin Fox

scan...bzzzt....beep....beep...bzzzt... - Morgan Haley

I love this version. And Seesmic in Twhirl is so addictive - Loic Le Meur

Wow, this is pretty old. I got excited for a second, thought Loic had seen the light and was starting to care about Twhirl again. NOPE. - Shawn Farner

at a certain point, it is just easier to buy a new one. depressing but accurate - Lou Paglia

"The paint contains an aluminium-iron oxide which resonates at the same frequency as wi-fi - or other radio waves - meaning the airborne data is absorbed and blocked. By coating an entire room, signals can't get in and, crucially, can't get out. Developed at the University of Tokyo, the paint could cost as little as £10 per kilogram, researchers say." - Tom Stocky from Bookmarklet

I must have used that paint in my last house without knowing it! - Lou Paglia

"Max: Matt and Toni have built a company in Automattic that is pretty remarkable that it builds such great stuff and is basically completely virtual. The have engineers all around the world. They have an office in SF which is normally empty except for socials and I think the last I heard their highest employee count in any one city was four." - Lou Paglia

i will miss training camp in Albany if this is the last year they have it there. it will not be close to the same at the Meadowlands. I enjoyed going up for a few days, hanging out at the fields, etc. Certainly won't do that in East Rutherford. - Lou Paglia

not sure how you judge QBs when they have 1.5 seconds after the ball is snapped. - Lou Paglia

Those all seem pretty standard for electronic retail, including Apple Stores. Of course, Apple fancies the positions up with nicer sounding titles. What Microsoft calls a “Retail Technical Advisor”, Apple calls a “Genius”. And what Microsoft calls a “Retail Customer Service Associate”, Apple calls a “Concierge”. What Microsoft calls a “Retail Sales Associate”, Apple calls a “Personal Shopping Specialist”, and so on. - MG Siegler from Bookmarklet

It's just whitewash, though, no? The job's probably the same and the influence possibility probably as well... - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)

Yes, I just got home from my Microsoft retail technical advisory appointment and they were able to fix my problem. Rolls right off the tongue. - Lou Paglia from iPhone

Doesn't it drive you guys crazy that the field shapes aren't standardized? - Andrew C

I'm 47% cheap shots by volume, maybe a little less by weight. - Andrew C

yes, the prices at Yankees stadium is a bit unreal - Lou Paglia

is anyone awake yet? - Lou Paglia

bueller?....bueller? - Lou Paglia

"will it replace BackType. still haven't really figured out how to use that service since it is standalone except for routing all of my comments across the web to a widget on my blog." - Lou Paglia

Interesting article, I like that our WRs aren't set in stone, so many young guys will be good to see them all get reps and see who steps up - Lou Paglia from iPhone

nice! welcome Vin. (yes, we are related) - Lou Paglia

my brother Vin is here too. and he is scared of GPS technologies! - Lou Paglia

pumping twitter feeds in the Giants Friendfeed group as well; http://www.friendfeed.com/giants - Lou Paglia

Oh come on, this has the potential to be interesting - Becca

The original question was going to be "if you were in charge of your country," but I figured this would make it simpler and people would know what I meant - Becca

this is a great turn of events, would be great to see him win a spot. not good that Boley is still out with injury - Lou Paglia

Nicks being out is starting to sound and feel a lot like Manningham last year and many WRs rookies with the GMen of years past. If he isn't back soon, he really could fall behind. At least Barden is making very good progress. - Lou Paglia

too bad, was sounding like he was having a good camp, hopefully it is pre-cautionary - Lou Paglia

something to think about now that FF was purchased by Facebook and we are wondering if it will stay around - Lou Paglia

i'm watching the live updates and can't imagine wanting to go back to static refreshing... - Lou Paglia

just not hopping to a new service just that. FF is too good. Let's see what happens. - Lou Paglia
