"Roughly the size of a Toyota (TM) Prius, the Ox can travel between 125 and 155 miles before needing a recharge, and zips from zero to 60 miles per hour in about 8.5 seconds. Its lithium-ion batteries can be charged to 80% capacity in less than an hour, and slender solar panels integrated into the roof power the onboard electronics. Inside, the hatchback includes a bevy of high-tech gizmos such as GPS navigation, a mobile Internet connection, and a key fob that lets drivers customize the car's all-digital dashboard. Pricing has yet to be announced, but the company's current vehicles cost less than $25,000." - Karen Padham Taylor
Good luck getting a 150-mile lithium battery for anything like that price... the solar panel also seems like a gimmick (as it is on the Aptera). - ⓞnor

The Evolution of Pre-Launch Gmail In Screenshots
June 6 at 11:57 am - Link
Gotta love the comment by Francis Burdett: "All I really learned from that series of images is that Gmail Labs, product manager Keith Coleman is _seriously_ cute. I mean LOOK at the boy." - Ocean
Can't believe this "evolution" was so diverse and less evolutionary (in the conventional sense). There's little resemblance in UI between the several snapshots. Seems to me that several mini-revolutions took place in Google Labs :) - Jagtesh Chadha

Cool. But what does lunch have to do with it? :) - Chris White

Data visualization: Clinton vs Obama
June 6 at 9:26 am - Link
This is so cool. I had seen this on the front page of NYTimes.com, but thought it was just a graphic for how men voted and didn't click on anything else. Watching the boxes move around is amazing. - Ana
That is a nice tool - RAPatton

Oh, that is nice! Pardon my spam while I tag this everywhere I can. - Harvey Simmons
One quirk is the "favor neither candidate" ends up on the Obama side. - RAPatton
I believe it doesn't fully include caucus results, so will skew slightly toward Clinton. - Mike Reynolds
Very cool. It would have been nice to make the size of the boxes proportional to population. - Dror Shimshowitz

Get a room!
May 22 at 12:48 pm - Link
Hey, its a noise filter! Sweet! - David Risley
Kevin: I was thinking a concept similar to this would be great just today. (Yeah, that's the ticket) Great work! Another thought is a tab where you can see only the comments and likes made by your friendfeed subscriptions. Not their posts, just their likes and comments. (I'm sure this may already exist, and I expect Lewis Gray at any time to bring me down to size and enlighten me :-) ) - Chris Reed

Kevin, will there be a directory of public rooms? - Mike Doeff
This is awesome! How do I change the icon for the room? I can't seem to find that under "Edit room settings." - Jason Chen
I was just thinking this AM that friendfeed needed something analogous to Flickr Groups and pools. cool. - bernie
Woohoo! I'd love to be able to specify where my imported items show up ... like my personal photos and Gmail status updates to these particular rooms, and my blog to my public feed, etc. - Ocean
<?php echo "Jason Chen's question about the icon and Mike Doeff's query about a directory..."; ?> - Voyagerfan5761
Darick, that's on our wishlist too :) - Paul Buchheit
Desperately needs a room browser! - Jeremy Toeman
I wish items in rooms were shared as usual unless specifically hidden (unless the room is private). The rooms mostly correspond to topics, and that's great for active content discovery, but without the usual sharing my friends don't get to discuss the content with me. Passive content discovery is one of FF's big strengths, but the current opt-in model of rooms doesn't help. And, you know, while discussing Obama with the enthusiasts in Obamamania is nice, I want to discuss stuff with my friends. - j1m
+1 for that, pretty please. (Super-Hide should have a "everything in this room" option, naturally.) I think that's a much bigger deal than a room browser. A room browser will have trouble scaling, but "which rooms are my friends active in" would be a very friendfeedy way to navigate the space. - ⓞnor

Eating in China
May 19 at 9:02 pm - Link
Interestingly, while Satoru swears by "八分目", Nori says that it's "七分目". The latter is closer to the Chinese proverb, "七分飽" . A Google search for both shows that there are about twice as many results for 七分目. But I guess it all depends on your own internal gauge of fullness anyway. ;o) - Ocean
I'll split the difference and go 75%. - darren
Of course less than a day after this post I went to Brazilian BBQ with my gf. Yet we both ate more vegetables than meat, and left decidedly not stuffed. Imagine going to all-you-can-eat Brazilian BBQ and getting hungry again a couple hours later, with no stomach-aches or "I'm so stuffed I want to die" feelings. It's quite nice. - darren
No way! That must not have been Brazilian BBQ. Can't trust those Chinese people ... ;o) - Ocean
Admittedly, it wasn't very tasty, and this played a large part in the non-stuffing. =P - darren
