"BumpTop is a fresh and engaging new way to interact with your computer desktop. You can pile and toss documents like on a real desk. Break free from the rigid and mechanical style of standard point-and-click desktops. Interact by pushing, pulling and piling documents with elegant, self revealing gestures. BumpTop's stunning interface makes clever use of 3D presentation and smooth physics-based animations for an engaging, vivid user experience. BumpTop has people talking. A video of the BumpTop interface is the most watched video of software on YouTube, ever. Other stories include NY Times, PCWorld, MIT Tech Review, Digg (twice) and others. BumpTop was also presented at TED 2007.

I'm sorry, but why simulate a interaction system that we only (used to) deal with because of the restraints of physical space? Sometimes, it doesn't make sense. That said, I would still love to try this out.
- Chieze Okoye
I'd like an invite. This would be greatly efficient when applied to touch interface (Microsoft Surface). The renovation is that when digitals contain physics, they can be more easily sorted (like the crumple, pile, hang, card decks, etc)
- brainno722 (Peter)
I've been waiting for awhile for this to become active. I love the concept of organizing like the real world.
- Shawn aka ringking
I guess I just don't see why this would be any better than a Windows GUI-like folder system augmented with a good system-wide search (a la Google Desktop, Windows Search or Spotlight). I just need convincing that directly mimicking the physical interaction like this is, at the end of the day, actually 'better' somehow than simply approximating it (as we do now). It seems like a lot of 3d overhead for not much gain (if any at all)...
- Chieze Okoye
...That said, I *could* see how something like this on Surface would be pretty awesome for fiddling with.

I completely agree. Twitter is a crowd of noise. Friendfeed is always conversations and information. Friendfeed is not only friendlier but once you modify your feed & lists you can consume a great deal more information (and of things you'd actually like to read).

- Robert Scoble
alright, I understand, but what point is he trying to make?
- Ahmed
yes, Robert, what is the point? The man came out with a video depicting a black tech bloggers as being interested in mostly substance abuse and tracking prostitutes. he then followed this up with videos telling black people they were lame, saying that black people would never "get it together," and absolving white people of racism. so what was his point? that you can get attention or be a comedian to skinheads by "pretending" to be a racist fuckwit? can you please explain?
- Karim
I like how the word "Dope" has recently entered the Web 2.0 lexicon. We can thank Loren for that.
- Hugh MacLeod
Karim: the point he is making is we're all self-centered dopes who will talk about him if he does nothing more than block and then refollow you. Even better, when he abuses us with his "comedy" we talk about him even more. But, this week is all about his blocking and then turning nice. you should see how many people are talking about him. It's brilliant. And evil.

Robert, at most he is showing that *some* people are self-centered dopes. That's not "brilliant." It's not even news. I'm at a loss to understand your fascination with him and sycophantic adulation of him, given his racist videos for one, and his abuse of you personally for another.
- Karim
+++ Karim... well said... like you say it show THEM as dopes... :o)
- Rob Sellen :o)
Years ago, I'd decided that appearing mildly amused at a person's attempts to cause me discomfort would both make him feel ineffective and as unhappy as he was trying to make me. I wonder if that was Robert's strategy, but giving the offender compliments is an entirely different thing, I think. [grammar corrected]
- MiniMage TKDteacher of FF
Mirroring is the best tactic.... mirror the idiots..and they dont know how to react. :o)
- Rob Sellen :o)
Yes, that's exactly my point, Mini. Any idiot with a $50 web cam can sit in their underwear and make racist videos or act out on Twitter. But as near as I can tell, only one of them gets regularly advertised by Scoble,.
- Karim
Karim: all good points. I never said I was not a dope. To me this is like that twitter phishing attack that was going around yesterday. It is worthy of a conversation because I see so many people falling for this. We're all egotistical baaaahhhhssssttttaaaarrrrrrdddddsssss and sometimes we let that show a bit too much.
- Robert Scoble
yeah, Robert, but you don't *laud* phishing attacks, you don't call them "brilliant." last i saw you talking about phishing attacks, you were saying, "Bad stuff. Be warned." (http://friendfeed.com/e...) and "Do not click [phishing] links..." (http://friendfeed.com/e...)
- Karim
when you said your son fell victim to the phishing attack, you didn't say (like you did above) that the phishing authors are "playing us like violins and we are falling for it. We are dopes!" you didn't say "we are all big actors in [the phisher's] play." you didn't smugly gloat that the phisher now has "a database of 3000 dopes to have fun with."
- Karim
i guess maybe the guy behind the phishing attack could start sending out racist tweets claiming that black people are lame. then you could call him "brilliant" like loren feldman?

There is a way to select "this blog has multiple authors" and have it only pull in those that I write, but you'll see Mashable, TechCrunch etc. don't make any distinction. The alternative is that "guest" posts would not show up on my feed, but only on theirs, and that would lower the visibility.

chicken feet are tasty, but annoying to eat.
- clarke thomas
I love the context that the censors are being more protectionist than nationalist (if there's a difference).
- Andrew
The censors are doing 1 other major thing....limiting the information to the public. If Chinese citizens truly knew how much in the dark ages they are, there'd be a revolt.
- clarke thomas
There isn't much meat on chicken feet. In that sense, those are as bad as wings.

Robert, Every time a coworker of mine travels to China, they come back a bit surprised. Was your trip what you expected? If so, how? If not, how was it different?
- Steve Olson
You only know few about China, 对于中国你了解甚少。
- Chris Qie
Steve: I was in China 12 years ago, so I already was prepared. I'm always blown away by rate of change here. It makes New York seem like a country village. Makes Vegas seem minor league.

I am well, thank you. I am sad about Prop 8 in California, because I have friends there for whom it is bad news... other than that, I am great! It is heartening to hear people from around the world celebrating our new president. I think this is a huge moment for the whole world. I am excited by the potential... <3

I agree, it is sad about Prop 8, it's something that should be and needs to be addressed and sooner than later but I'm very excited about the prospects of your new President ... it was definitely the right result! Night B, sweet dreams! <3

Yea, right. China is a communist country the same way the Republican party is the party of small business standing up against Wall Street and the investment bankers and against "socialism".

Hilarious. You will learn aplenty in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, but precious little about communism. Have a great trip; sorry I will miss you in SH.

haha. Good luck on your trip.

By the way, one thing I recommend for any visitor to China is visit a bookstore if possible (even the ones in airports). You'll be shocked at all the business management / capitalism books you'll find (and one tiny shelf of Communist stuff).
