What startups can learn from fluffy bunnies - http://www.inquisitr.com/3022...
only you could spin fluffy bunnies into a startup story. "Fluffy bunnies are cute: In a week where Scoble called every company presenting at DEMO awful due to their websites, style remains an important factor in the mix. Fluffy bunnies are nice to look at, and so should your website. You may have the best idea in the world, but people will be repulsed if your website looks like a Chinese Crested Dog instead of a fluffy bunny. - McFrugal

TC50: Payola or a dodgy site from Ashton Kutcher, I know which I’d pick - http://www.inquisitr.com/2984...
are you seriously saying that this site was at the conference? - McFrugal
yes. - Duncan Riley
I don't want to be overly harsh, but I just can't see how this site qualifies. I also noted in the post: I have no issue with it being picked from the marketing/ exposure point, however when you set up a conference as being the best of the best, letting one slide doesn't help your credibility - Duncan Riley
Wait. You're sure that wasn't a case of the conference being Punk'd? I'm skeptical. - Siona van Dijk
Siona +1 - Duncan Riley
it had no place. It's a video show. There are hundreds better. And this should be on YouTube or Blip. - Andru Edwards
Sorry Duncan, but to basically everyone excpet for you Ashton is an A lister, I live in L.A. and call tell you for sure he is an A-Lister - Andrew Fielding
Andrew, A list, C list...what ever, the site didn't deserve to be there on merit alone - Duncan Riley
I saw BlahGirls first. I was non-plussed but assumed it was picked for publicity purposes. Then I saw Other Inbox, and about died. An entire company based around a catch-all email address, which anyone can do by checking a single box on their email settings page!?!? And then you get 1,000 inboxes instead of one? I fear what the companies *not* chosen were like, if this is the cream of the crop. - Marina Martin
Before launching a new product/service, I wish people would take a moment to ask themselves, "Is the best we could do? Is this the best use of our time, resources, and talent?" - Marina Martin

Arrington is making a list of every non-TC50 story on Techmeme so as to cut this months retainer to Gabe. Michael's a hard man, even with best friends.... - Duncan Riley from Bookmarklet
Michael Arrington takes a brief break between ventriloquist shows - Jason Carreira
hahahaa...great photo - Zee.
Actually, headline is wrong, consider this a caption contest, and go for it! - Duncan Riley
Michael, you're pulling too hard. - McFrugal
Gabe: so I fucked up on the TC50 coverage, sue me, I promise you that the coverage will never hit Techmeme. - Duncan Riley
+1 Jason. Mine wasn't even half as good. - Cyndy
Gabe: why are you taking this pic? This is a love that speaks no name, your picture can never do it justice. - Duncan Riley
bahahaha... from anonymous this morning: "Mike: Gabe, see I don't even need you anymore to get a lead, I just click that button you setup for me and instantly I get a lead. You just sit there and deflect any startups who want to talk to me" - Cyndy
"Dude, is that your foot?" "Yeah, why?" "Nothing, just making sure..." - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Gabe: It's that time of the month, my partner doesn't understand - Duncan Riley
Tina, that's fantastic. Easily one of the best i've seen on here. - Zee.
Nice to see people still using pen and paper - even when they have all manner of computers and software on hand... - Jonathan Beckett
Gabe doesn't look very happy. :( - Yolanda
"I have herpes." - Dave Winer
Lol, way to end it Dave! :) - Zee.
Heh. It seems to be the universal punchline, always good for a laugh. :-) - Dave Winer
I often get pointed at FriendFeed only to discover crap like this. Duncan Riley, you are a real dirtbag and you have too much talent to waste it like this. - Steve Gillmor
Steve, do you say the same thing, in public, to Arrington when he pushes Feldman's abuse and Gabe, when he defends it and calls Feldman a "friend." Not to mention the regular thrashing I get from Calacanis. Where's your outrage then Steve? And that dirtbag thing -- that's really too far. - Dave Winer
@Steve Lighten up Francis. - Jason Carreira
I call it as I see it Dave. Feldman is a friend of mine too, and when he offends me I let him know. This thread is just peurile crap. - Steve Gillmor
You got some friends who treat people pretty bad Steve. - Dave Winer
BTW, now I guess I have to ask -- what are your groundrules for name-calling at Bearhugcamp? - Dave Winer
Namecalling at BearHug Camp will be streamed live. Most likely it will not be productive, just like it isn't here. - Steve Gillmor
If you can't take the heat, stay out of the tech-kitchen. You web 2.0 celebtards are too thin skinned. You should have seen how we went after each other in the enterprise Java space. - Jason Carreira
"I smell merger!" - Morgan Warstler
To clarify there will be no namecalling tolerated at BearHug Camp. - Steve Gillmor
Not to beat a dead horse, and I won't be doing any name-calling, but there's no way to be sure that there won't be any, however we can agree that it's off-topic and will be stopped if it happens. - Dave Winer
Agreed - Steve Gillmor
Dave, listen to me real good, No one controls me in any way. You got that. I goof on you because you are goofable. A tired old relic fighting to stay relevant. It's over Dave, all this shit is passing you by. No one cares about your crap. It's a new world Dave, and you're not part of it. - loren feldman
can't we all just get along? -Rodney told me that - Noah David Simon

Cool. When our continuous build breaks my Mac blows a foghorn and then sometimes speaks: "Zombies have attacked. Zombies have attacked. This is not a drill. Seek shelter immediately. <pause> Just kidding, the build is broken". ........ I'm such a nerd. - Capn' One Eye - adrift

Is Google Analytics under-reporting your traffic? - http://www.inquisitr.com/2836...
interesting - McFrugal
how big was the gap? - Stephen Jones
at the biggest point, 4-5k - Duncan Riley
I'm a user of both Google Analytics and Nielsen NetRatings, both of their codes are at the bottom of my pages and both are pretty much accurate on page view counts - no doubt because the load on my pages is very very low at around 25kB. However, their unique user counts are very dissimilar: Analytics reports 3-5 times what Nielsen does. This bugs me greatly. I would love to know the reason for the discrepancy. - Paul Montgomery
Heh. Without looking at the body of the article, I can answer yes. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins
interesting that I have a similar issue with Quantcast, although that's actually below the Analytics count pre-shift the code - Duncan Riley
See again: lies, damn lies, and Web stats - Cyndy
I am not sure about GA, but for an in-house web analytics which I am building, I have also noticed the same thing. That a long page load can make the user leave even before any tracking js at the footer of the page can be executed. Hence for my site, I have the tracking code at the top. Some were skeptical though when I told them this.. - Winston Teo
As a backup to the GA code, I use two additional systems. As I work for Gomez, I am using the Actual XF that among other things tracks page views. I also created my own tracker (http://bit.ly/4rEHVj) to confirm the hits. - Stephen Pierzchala
Duncan Riley
yes - McFrugal
Thank you, for this Duncan :) I love blogging -- but that's because I talk WAY too much LOL - Mona Nomura
Mona, and never let anyone silence you - Duncan Riley
Of course. - Louis Gray
Hm? Did someone say something? ;) <small> noted. Thank you :) </small> - Mona Nomura
It will be a lot more fun when someone lights those fireworks mortars :o "ooooh .. that one looks like a kitteh!" - Mattb4rd

FeedBurner Rorts: Nice numbers if you can get them - http://www.inquisitr.com/2147...
"Erick Schonfeld had the temerity to go moral on others in covering the Feedburner rorts story while championing TechCrunch’s subscriber count, without once mentioning the known fact that the count is inflated, grossly perhaps, by TechCrunch being offered as a standard initial feed on a range of services." ouch - McFrugal
