Any Quaker who leaves over this shouldn't have been a Quaker to begin with. - Nick Bergus

I shared this last week, but Gruber says it well. And when Gruber and Kottke both link to something, it's usually pretty good. Just saying. - Nick Bergus

But now NASA has morphed into its second career as a social media star. - Nick Bergus

You know, for listening to your rare 45s while out in the field or on the construction site. - Nick Bergus

Don't judge me, but this might be my most favorite tweet ever. - Nick Bergus

I'm not sure why Google doesn't just build an iPhone Gmail app, unless they want to give Android the advantage of a native app (which works really well, BTW, and usually gets new mail pushed to it before it shows in the Web interface [and, yes, I often have Gmail open on my phone and my desktop. Don't you?]). - Nick Bergus

There's more than an hour of video here, and some much of the humor is forced, but it effectively breaks down every problem of "Star Wars Episode 1" - Nick Bergus

Again: who cares about these stupid Mashable circle-jerk awards? - Nick Bergus

Some people have no sense of humor. - Nick Bergus

Pros of the new Google phone: uses the 1 Ghz Snapdragon and runs Android 2.1. Cons: this odd partnership with T-mobile with sucky EDGE in Iowa. - Nick Bergus

This might be my most favorite link blurb ever. - Nick Bergus

Just doing my part to continue circulation. - Nick Bergus

Of course there is a third option: AT&T does have network issues but they're compounded by the iPhone AND other iPhone problems get blamed on AT&T. - Nick Bergus

Again with the hatred of hardware keyboards. - Nick Bergus

Problem with lists: Nook is No. 2 and it hasn't gotten great reviews and most won't ship until next year, so... draw your own conclusions. - Nick Bergus

I'm glad Gruber admits Michael Arrington was probably right on this one, but where is the "gosh, I was probably really wrong when I said it was total bullshit"? (One could argue that he didn't claim it was total BS, but he said that the claim "puts Arrington on the same side as the almost-always-full-of-shit Scott Moritz. On the other side: Andy Rubin, vice president of engineering for Android at Google, who just two weeks ago said Google would not 'compete with its customers' and 'We’re not making hardware. We’re enabling other people to build hardware.'" That's saying it's total BS.) The headline, less than a month ago was "Filed Away for Future Claim Chowder: Mike Arrington Says Google Is Making Its Own Android Phone" (http://bit.ly/5zjgI0) One of the problems with tech reporting -- and other reporting, too -- is people seem to have a hard time saying "I was wrong." I don't want "that guy was right," or "my source told me differently," or "the available information suggested... - Nick Bergus

I'm really not sure what to make of this. I keep marking it as unread because I don't know what to do with it but know I have to do something. - Nick Bergus

I recently marked as read more than 1,000 and deleted a bunch of feeds since I found myself starting with shared items then going to just a few of my favorite feeds anyway. So far it feels more manageable and I find myself reading a wider variety of feeds since it doesn't feel like I'm constantly behind. - Nick Bergus

With more than 6 days to go, the blog has already been bid up to $2,600 (http://bit.ly/8gm5zb). Clearly people have been ignoring the advice of how to bid on eBay (http://bit.ly/7Tnv5j). - Nick Bergus

If I liked gaudy ass basketball shoes, I'd buy those. - Nick Bergus

That would have been one fucked up Star Wars flick. - Nick Bergus

But Apple Legal needs to be fucked with since it thinks it can own the word "Pod" and patent multitouch gestures. - Nick Bergus

I think that's a dumb analogy. - Nick Bergus

Even though this has been all over the place, I haven't followed it because, unless this is something I can get on an existing device, I don't really care about it. If someone built a tablet build for reading and surfing, I'm interested, but I don't want a Sports Illustrated tablet. A tablet edition of Sports Illustrated? That i'd think about. - Nick Bergus

Genius idea, but how about reviewing magazines as if they're marijuana dispensaries? - Nick Bergus

Ray Lewis might have killed a guy after a Super Bowl. Mike Paul is an idiot. - Nick Bergus

I originally saw this developers at a Microsoft-sponsored event. - Nick Bergus

So how long do I have to wait for the update? - Nick Bergus
