I wonder if he owes a royalty to the estate of Wm Safire, who coined "natering nabobs..." for Spiro Agnew. - Michael Markman
If he does, I do, too. What cracks me up is that Dems are using it like they invented it (myself included). - Karoli

Truthdig - Reports - Obama TV: How the President Revived Health Care
"President Barack Obama has been a calming force in the debate over health care reform, bringing a tone of rationality to counter the influence of right-wing talk radio, Fox News and the Republicans’ staged “grass-roots” town hall meetings. He’s not turning the other cheek. Rather, he’s sticking it to his critics with intelligence and wit. It’s easy to criticize Obama as he becomes the public face of health reform. He is annoyingly general. The reform bill he is likely to sign will be a hodgepodge of compromises, some terrible. But we should be thankful for the civilized tone that Obama is bringing to a debate that was beginning to descend into ideological hysteria and unrelated arguments over race." - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet

The Future of Books | The Daily Dish | By Andrew Sullivan - http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_dai...
"Could come with the downfall of book stores. Anthony Grafton explains and worries about monopoly control of information: "For years, Google has kept rolling out one new application after another, from Street View to Fast Flip, and rolling over most of the competition as it does so. They’ve just done it again: [Thursday], Google announced that they would allow On Demand Books to produce paperback versions of two million out-of-copyright digitized texts on the Espresso Book Machine, which can print and bind a book in less than five minutes. For the recommended $8 a copy—the price of a paperback romance—readers will be able to buy anything from “Moby Dick” to “Dame Curtsey’s Book of Candy Making,” The Google-On Demand partnership could transform retail bookselling—especially of books for university courses."" - Sean McBride from Bookmarklet

They lead the charge against much. Wall Street pouts at the notion that big insurer profits will have to come from elsewhere. Death panels are transferred to bundled viatical settlements. - Karoli

Tears of Rage: The Great Bob Dylan Audio Scandal | The Cinch Review - http://www.cinchreview.com/bob-dyl...
"Put as simply as possible: It has become undeniable to me, based on research and ultimately through direct personal comparison, that the CD editions I purchased of both of Bob Dylan’s albums Modern Times and Together Through Life contain significantly damaged versions of Bob Dylan’s original recordings. The vinyl long-playing records of both of these, by contrast, contain the recordings as I believe they must have been intended by the artist to sound to the listener" - Cliff Gerrish from Bookmarklet
Makes me want to order the Vinyl - Michael Markman
What !?! What tracks on Together Through Life are damaged? How are they different on the vinyl? - Igor Goldkind
The post is about the current practice of applying radical compression to music. Where wide dynamic range (loud louds, and soft softs) was a hallmark of early hi-fi, modern pop music is crushed so that it's all loud through and through--like TV commericals or AM radio. Maybe it's useful for listening in noisy environments where the recording needs to punch through a lot of ambient noise... more... - Michael Markman

Special Gillmor Gang realtime rerun 1PM Pacific today http://www.building43.com/realtim...
I missed this Gillmor Gang the first time, I was working... - Cliff Gerrish
lot of buffering right now, unwatchable, or is it just me? - HansVanRock
Working for me. Seems pretty smooth. - Cliff Gerrish
thought mine had buffering probs till I realized I had it opened in two windows - Michael Metz
geez, i've been looking all over for this. JUST NOW found it. - Karoli
anyone know if it's available on itunes? - Michael Metz
I understand it'll eventually be available on YouTube. - Cliff Gerrish
this is cracking me up. LOL... - Karoli
Where was Feldman? Love the setting he's in. - Karoli
dude, scoble's feed looks like mine. and he has a zillion more follows. - Karoli
can't get the video on my iphone. what's up with that? - Karoli
got it -- ustream viewer on iPhone. not as smooth as it is on the mac - Karoli
that's "punked", not "pwned", but it's all good :) - Kurtiss Hare
thx kurtis - Steve Gillmor
holy shit. Loren trusts CNN? that's his first mistake. - Karoli
thx for watching RObert - Steve Gillmor
So, was this the first episode since the new setup? - Kurtiss Hare
more in that I sort of know how the feed went but can get a different view while watching. both are similar experiences - Steve Gillmor
totally impressed w/video quality and stream on my mac...iphone is a little more herky-jerky via UStream app. - Karoli
Robert, me too. I used to listen to Newsgang LIve afterwards too, because being in it and seeing it later are so different. - Karoli
Kurtis yes, we had several false starts - Steve Gillmor
I'll buy one. - Kurtiss Hare
I'm enjoying this - thanks for replaying it, Steve - Hilary Talbot
ROFL...we are definitely in a theater. - Karoli
lol, the meltdowns continue - Mark
Does David Sanborn appreciate cell phone use during his live sets? - Kurtiss Hare
this is great. love it. such high theatre. - Karoli
"cell phone off" doesn't mean the same thing as "ringer off" does it? Too much talking... not enough listening... - Ken Sheppardson
I'm waiting for him to stream one of those live sets. (and don't tell Loren I tweet from church...LOL) - Karoli
david sanborn loves when people tweet about his show during concerts - Steve Gillmor
this is AWESOME - Mark
feldman is ALL OVER Scoble - Mark
this is better watching the second time around - Jay Cuthrell
Loren should do his own talk show - Jesse Stay
+1 Jesse (same thought just 2 seconds to late) - HansVanRock
Loren -is- his own talk show - Jay Cuthrell
lolllllllllllllllllllll - Mark
Great great delivery - Jay Cuthrell
I tuned in late and got hit in the face with this... hm. Missed what brought down Loren's wrath on Robert. - Ken Sheppardson
Loren's all over the place, by his own logic, why should CNN be authoritative when they're not the ones making the news? - Kurtiss Hare
Ken - There is a FF thread over in building43 that covered the back and forth for the original live airing - Jay Cuthrell
this is the point where i want to thank Steve that Gillmor Gang is back - HansVanRock
steve, where did you just post your reply re: Sanborn loving tweets during sets? I can't find it on this thread...(confusion) - Karoli
what the fuck just happened - Mark
rock on, Steve. great show, so glad it's back. - Karoli
thats it? - HansVanRock
AND SCENE - Jay Cuthrell
with all the respect to you GANG you can do this better in close doors sorry - Johni Fisher
Keith Jarrett would probably just end the concert. Suppose it depends on the artistic temperament. - Kurtiss Hare
Loren and Scoble at each other's throats. Theatre. Drama. Fake blood. Professional wrestling at its most amateur. - Michael Markman
Sigh. Somebody lemme know where there's an RSS feed for the bootleg audio, will ya? - Ken Sheppardson
Ken, have you looked over on UStream? There may be video there... - Karoli
I checked UStream but the only archives are Steve playing with the initial setup. - Jay Cuthrell
there will be a YouTube version soon - Steve Gillmor
The quality of the broadcast (technology) is outstanding - Jay Cuthrell
Steve : why always to fight ? - Johni Fisher
where can I subscribe to this show? - No Agenda Forums
Johni life can be a struggle - Steve Gillmor
there will be an RSS feed on gillmorgang.techcrunch.com - Steve Gillmor
Steve DO you really think that Feldman is a Gang member ? speaking as he spoke to Robert ? - Johni Fisher
The Gillmor Gang is who I say it is - Steve Gillmor
and ? - Johni Fisher
just subscribed to http://friendfeed.com/realtim... having it sent to FF notifier popup. - Karoli
Johni, Feldman might be a LIfetime Gang member. Just sayin'. :) - Karoli
and what? - Steve Gillmor
Thanks Steve. Looking forward to listening. - No Agenda Forums
GG is amorphous, but I sure do miss a voice like Udell's, back in the day. - Kurtiss Hare
thanks for listening No Agenda - Steve Gillmor
I was thinking about the limitations on TV broadcast video for a simulcast with sidebar conversation... not sure how many people have 62" TV's yet that would support offload to a interstital and separate chat window (reminds me of early AOL experiments with interactive pre-IPTV) - Jay Cuthrell
I talk with Udell all the time, just not on the air recently - Steve Gillmor
[ (TV) (sidebar) ] would be a pretty big screen - Jay Cuthrell
okay, later. Lots of fun, Steve, thanks for rerunning for lamers like me who missed the first round. - Karoli
good to see you Karoli - Steve Gillmor
I just like how varied the personalities are on the show. Bass. Drums. Guitar. Harmonica. - Jay Cuthrell
back to work... later folks - Jay Cuthrell
If anyone missed this rerun there's an MP3 here: http://feeds2.feedburner.com/bootleg... - Jack
thx jack - Christopher Harris
Thx for the bootleg Jack! - Kahlil Lechelt
Yes thanks very much for the bootlegs Jack, much appreciated all around. - Michael Breslin
btw thank you for recording the prev show! - Michael Pinto
Listened to the bootleg feed, great show. I doubt I'll ever watch live as I'm more a radio guy. Loren's comment as being a trusted source for reporting the Michael Jackson funeral has a disturbing similarity to Blackwater being a trusted source for the US Military. I'm all for keeping Feldman and Keen on the show and it was great hearing Calacanis again, Scoble on the other hand.... It's your show Steve - Jason Adams
Just returned from holiday to discover that Steve has put the gang back together. Great first show. Love the fact that Steve no longer sounds like a call-in guest on his own show. Thanks to whoever set up the bootleg mp3 feed - vital for this long-term listener. Keep up the good work, chaps and chapesses! - Richard Carter, FCD from iPhone

For those on the other side of the planet will you be able to grab the show via RSS - oh I forgot RSS is dead, right? - John Chrisoulakis
So happy GG is coming back (again). Literally the highlight of an otherwise rough day. Don't care what network it's on, as long as Steve gets to herd his intellectually stimulating mix of "cats". Thanks Steve. :) - Dr. Apps from twhirl
Good! - John Wright

I might be able to come out of hiding now... we'll see. - Aron Michalski
Excellent news to end the week! Look forward to it. - Diego Barros 
What a one-two punch. Gillmor serves it up on Thurs aft and the Bad Hair Boys knock it out of the park in the early evening! :-) - Dave Winer
Good news. So who's on the show? - Michael Metz
Probably too much to ask, but for posterity, please repost the GG archives! There, I said it. - Scott Mace
There go my afternoons! - Robert Scoble from iPhone
Will be interesting to see, will Mr. Arrington be participating...lol - Johann Diaz from Nambu
Missed the Gang so much and with the NGL Studio, it will be a tough act to follow for the Bad Hair boys :) #TechThursday FTW - Alberto Saavedra
why wouldn't Arrington be in it sometimes? It really was Leo who was a "take my ball and go home" crybaby - Rasmus Lauridsen
Way to go. Looking forward to it. - Oliver Kohl
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! - Susan Beebe
This news has made my month! I can't wait... - Chris Aldrich
i'm hoping that timeshifting options will be available - i probably won't ever be able to catch it live - Chris Heath
But, but, but...what about podshow? - Mark Hunter
Very happy to hear this, but I also wonder about RSS support. - Robert
w00t!! - Kevin Nunez
Now that's what I'm talkin' about. - Vezquex: God of FF

Steve's back! - Harald Felgner

Looks like this most recent OS X update fixed the Time Machine issues. If I disconnected external drive from MacBook long enough for it to attempt and fail a backup, I'd have to reboot to make it succeed. This started a few months ago, before that didn't happen. After updating this morning, back in business. Just plugged up and backed up. Nice.
I may have spoke too soon. The first backup after I hooked up the Time Machine drive succeeded, but all the ones after that were the same "X files backed up, 93 bytes) that I always used to get. Will I have to wait for 10.6 for this to get fixed? Worse, will 10.6 come out and not even fix it? - Dave Slusher
