Happy birthday Ray Bradbury! | Jacket Copy | Los Angeles Times
88 Years of making this a better planet. - michael sean wright from Bookmarklet
That's a great picture. Happy birthday, Mr. Bradbury! - Chris Baskind
From Mr. Bradbury, "The best hygiene for beginning writers or intermediate writers is to write a hell of a lot of short stories. If you can write one short story a week -- doesn't matter what the quality is to start, but at least you're practicing. At the end of the year, you have 52 short stories, and I defy you to write 52 bad ones. Can't be done." - michael sean wright
Martian Chronicles, Fahrenheit 451, Dandelion Wine -- man, this guy can WRITE - TDavid
Another gem from Mr. Bradbury, "We are cups, constantly and quietly being filled. The trick is, knowing how to tip ourselves over and let the beautiful stuff out." - michael sean wright
Happy Belated Birthday. 1920 was also the year my Grandfather was born and celebrated his on the 16th, currently he is trying to sign off from Sky Broadband and move to BT. He tried inputting his email on sky's sign off page and when after the 5th time it didn't accept his address he wrote in the box "I have used this email for two years now why won't you accept it!" they did..his theory is that there are people on the other side. His last words on the call was 'Keep your head up!' - Jason
@ Jason- Great story! You mean there aren't people on the other side? - michael sean wright
Heh, I was about to say i had posted a duplicate of this article...but this was a whole year ago. Wow, we've been using Friendfeed a long time. - Jason Toney

From hedge fund q3 report: 'the divergence from fundamentals has created an extraordinary oppty for investors who can withstand volatility'
A lot of people live so close to the edge, on credit, that they really can't withstand volatility.. - William Stewart
re-phrase -- we need more idiots with pockets full of money to make more funny financial experiments, we just fcuking can't stop to entertain ourselves with process of burning out them ;) - A.T.

Fred Wilson
listening to Colin Powell endorse Obama on Meet The Press A great analysis of the choice our country faces, I hope he ends up in the cabinet
Fred, that was very well said, re: Powell. - Ken Stewart | ChangeForge
So he can help the next president start another war? I appreciate his endorsement of Obama and especially what he said aboutMuslim Americans (my 7 year-old did too). However Powell was a central figure in an Administration that invaded another country and led to the deaths of 100K Iraqi civilians. He is no less a war criminal than George Bush for doing so. - Farhan Memon
He was mistaken like the majority of American citizens. At least he realized it. He said today he worked to promote peace first, as well, and I'm inclined to believe him. - Sean Quinn from twhirl
won't help Obama. glad it won't too. this guy is such a liar. he is bitter because they lied to him... and it turns out he was lied to for a very good reason. he is angry. bitter white guy! lol too late to help. momentum is going McCain's way now... polls are a media mirage. watch. - Noah David Simon
I think it was calculated to do just that - end up in the cabinet. Where's the "Change", from Biden on it's all Old Guard! - Victor Ryden
Powell's reasons were economic. Military peeps doing Economics,like Grab Ass'n boot camp. Colin "Don't Ask Don't Tell” - Noah David Simon
For a second there my eyes deceived me and I thought that read 'Press the Meat' haha - Joe Dawson
Dare Obasanjo
Colin Powell endorses Barack Obama. Hell, yeah. Story at http://www.cnn.com/2008...

Duncan Riley
Hulu’s georetardation policies now officially beyond a joke - http://www.inquisitr.com/4677...
like Duncan says - EPIC FAIL ... hulu needs to wake up to the modern internet .. you know - that global electronic world we all like to play in (keyword being global) - Steven Hodson
Steve, even if we accept they have limitations on shows, there's ZERO excuse here with political content. It's bollocks, complete and utter bollocks. - Duncan Riley
I've been thinking of subscribing for some time; your excellent use of the word 'bollocks' sealed the deal for me. - Aaron Krug
Aaron, nice to have you on board, and reciprocate as well. Bollocks is actually a word I need to use less of...particularly in posts :-) - Duncan Riley
If you're interested in watching Hulu from outside the US there has been much success from something called the "HotSpot Shield" http://www.google.com/search... - Brandon
Brandon, we use it on abc.com at times when the Silicon Valley funded Chinese hosting sites have issues :-) - Duncan Riley
just a footnote on this: I hate the fact that FF has placed this entry as a related entry on a comment I made directly on the blog. It should be the OTHER way around - Duncan Riley
I gave up on Hulu after trying three times and striking out (from Canada). - David Muir
Duncan Riley
Melbourne Startup Camp: the good, the bad and the VC - http://www.inquisitr.com/4560...
I really wonder exactly what it's going to take to get a major US VC to set up a branch office here? That was a part of the Cutler report's findings on the local VC industry. Sounds like it couldn't happen soon enough! - Warren
Warren, I hope so. God, we could do with even half a Fred Wilson :-) - Duncan Riley
Duncan, now would be as good a time as any, I think our economy is going to stand up a lot better in the coming months thanks to our resource exports to China. We've got some pretty damn good heads in the biotech and clean energy spaces - eg Ausra went over and got money from Khosla and KPCB... - Warren

So wrong! - Arthur Guy
Hoff gets sick in his pants ,,, - johnpiercy
I've heard they can create miracles. - Andrew Trinh
No. They. Didn't. - Carmen
I would comment I like this, but that might mean I <heart> the Hoff... Hoff is so campy he is fun. - Ken Stewart | ChangeForge
thats just wrong - (jeff)isageek
brain bleach, please? - Admiral Anika
It's so hilarious it's wrong. ;) - Mona Nomura
Too funny! - David Cook
HAHAHA!! that's *awesome* and by awesome i mean DISGUSTING! :-) - tracy apps from twhirl
I had forgotten he played Nick Fury in 1998 until I saw it this weekend. - Rev. Dr. W!cKeD Rock
Wow. Suddenly, a kiss from Andrea Von Strucker doesn't seem so bad. - Steven Perez
I've been using the Hoff for years, I've never had smoother skin! - Mike Lewis
Noooooo! Nasty mental image, get out!!!!! I cast you out, Satan! - Dread Pirate PJ
LOL and EWW at the same time! :D - Ron
Does this soap contain alcohol? - Ken Stewart | ChangeForge
Depends if you want it to dispense alcohol. ;) - Mona Nomura
Brings a whole new meaning to the term "facial." - ::Kristen::
Yup, don't really want to touch the Hoff there thanks - Toby Graham
lol Mona. You are so wrong for this. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
This is so wrong. - Kevin Bondelli
I hope that's soap! - Morton Fox
I always feel iffy about those dispensers. All it takes is one disgruntled worker... - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
EEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwww! - Susan Beebe
GYAH! - Mo Kargas
OMG, Rah! That's it. Just hot water for me. - Ayşe E.

Geek 1.0 vs Geek 2.0
2780453718_c76bb03144_o.jpg
D+D FTW!!! - Mladen Srdić
all hail to interwebz goddess! - Mladen Srdić
Ahhh! I dunno, but I feel that I still fall under Geek 1.0 - Ron
I want a pocket protector!! @Mladen: I <3 the Internet :) - Mona Nomura
Mona: Geek 1.0 and everything, but high waters? no way. lol - Ron
intertubes ftw !eleven! :D - Mladen Srdić
What's wrong with high waters? They're now called 'capris' - Mona Nomura
Mona: If you're a guy with high waters, you're a dork. LOL - Ron
Hey, that's sexist! :p - Mona Nomura
Not quite, just biting reality. hahaha =p - Ron
there's nothing wrong with being a nerd / geek / dork! revenge of the nerds ftw! - Mona Nomura
I refuse to admit that an Apple nerd is the second iteration of the original geek. I'd buy that the geek and the nerd both fork from the same dork tree, though. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins
Also, say that second sentence five times fast out loud. :) - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins
+1 Mark. The internet is seemingly filled with 'geeks' who can't fix their own computers. (I said can't, not won't) - Yuvi
Funny >the geek and the nerd both fork from the same dork tree, though. - Russellreno
Very nice! You could replace the D&D by a deck of Magic the gathering in Geek 1.0 - João Almeida from twhirl
Geek 1.5 ("The Transitional"): 1. Trusty Palm V (in all its form factor glory) in hand, 2. Inserted into casual conversation: "AOL! - Pssf! Not even on dial-up anymore -- once you go to BroadBand, you can't go back! And High-waters, w/ pair of scissors applied, have become DYI shorts that are the new source of fashion ridicule. - Micah Wittman from twhirl
If my ADND gaming group is any indication, the game is still D&D, but character sheets are on the computers. I fully believe I combine the best of both worlds; with a Tablet PC my character sheets are both digital and handwritten. I've got to admit the spreadsheet users have it nice, when it comes to stat penalties and recalculating...uh, I think I should shut up, now. - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF
3.0 will be you in a virtual world - Ryan
Does anyone actually have night vision contact lenses? I'd buy one right away! - Elliott Ng
Matt Cutts
Settlers of Catan looks really difficult to understand but it's actually a lot of fun.
it is one of the best games in the last 10 years, have you tried all the different add-ons? - Frank Spychalski
Frank, I'm just trying to keep up when playing the generic vanilla game right now. :) - Matt Cutts
It's great! Try Cities and Knights once you feel like you're up for it. - Ozan Onay
Cities&Knights + Seafarers makes the game more complex but it's worth it. if you ever visit the Munich office we can play a round - Frank Spychalski
Yuvi
Thinking of releasing the code (somewhat messy, but cleanup-able) that runs thestatbot.com as open source. Suggestions/Ideas?
Incase you don't know (many won't, I'm sure), it allows you to collect rather detailed statistics of Flickr Accounts, Blogs, forums, etc. It's nowhere complete - The analysis subsystem is complete, and so are the Flickr and Techmeme data collection subsystems. Twitter Data Collection Subsystem used to work till Twitter turned Developer Hostile. - Yuvi
id love to chat with you about doing some work for me - can you send me an email? - Allen Stern
@Allen - I am not able to locate an email address for you at CenterNetworks.com (mine is yuvipanda@gmail.com) - Yuvi
How does code.google.com/p/thestatbot sound? :-) You can give people access to improve it for you. :D - Voyagerfan5761
Well, giving people access gives me more incentives to improve it for myself too :) - Yuvi
I would recommend that you cleanup the code first before releasing it. What license are you considering? - Hassan Ibraheem
@Hassan - Obviously will be cleaned up. And ofcourse I intend to continue development. I am leaning towards something non-GPL, but compatible with the GPL.... - Yuvi
Would be great to do some of our own analysis. You'd definitely make a small cadre of analytics nerds very happy! - Ozan Onay

@surinders says "...on a per-capita basis, the stars were Australia and Jamaica" @kmto noticed that too.

Do they even make cassettes anymore? - Jonathan.Rivera
Who cares, it's awesome! :) - Mona Nomura
I often think that my kids have not even seen a cassette, then I remember my walkman. Right on! - Loic Le Meur
+1 @ Mona N.! - JA Castillo
It would be badass to say the least, but I am gonna call BS* on this. "Sony expects to sell hundreds of these devices within the first year" and "Walk-Pods". I don't think so. :-( - cmiper

Dude, cassettes are so much awesome. How'd you get so lucky and land Cyndy, sunshine? Sheesh! - Mona Nomura from fftogo
I hated cassettes too... with vinyl you go to a track, hell with 8 tracks you kinda go to a track :P Cassettes, portable, and that was all it had going for it. *edit* though, I have seen some cool cassette label art - Michael W. May
So fake! - Nick Austad from twhirl

That makes two of us Mona ;) - Emma
I bet a trillion dollars (pounds?) someone on FriendFeed can make this LOL - Mona Nomura
Not sure a cassette would ever fit in an ipod case (let alone with mechanism). Is this why the pics only show it half-in? Could certainly go with an early HanGo or Creative route. Perhaps it's time to dig out my SSI Neo and rip its gizzards out... - Rob

"Twitter connections change over time. We tend to follow more people as we go, but we also remove connections depending our interest and attention span. At least I do. Since I look at the whole network activity from a very thin slice (a list) I prefer to cure my network, I remove some people to be able to keep up with others." - Erhan Erdogan

From a *Microsoft* recruiter's email this morning: "I came across your profile through our resume database (Google Search) and I will like to talk to you regarding our current openings." Seriously? Your resume database is Google Search? Points for honesty there...
I'm surprised it's not "Microsoft Live" search! (Note, I'm not actually surprised) - Cyrus Lendvay
I thought their resume database was the Google employee directory. - Amir Gharaat
@Amir hahahaha - Josh Wills
I don't think that they've ever managed to hire many people from Google though. Certainly the original push (when they were calling all of the engineers) was fruitless. - Paul Buchheit
