Actually, the bubble-tea revolution in Silicon Valley was started by Silicon Valley engineer importing a drink from Taiwan. :-) So was Jamba Juice, which was funded by one of the Silicon Valley VC firms. - Piaw Na

I thought it started on the East Coast first (imported from Taiwan). Now there seems to be another bubble-tea-like phenomena coming from Taiwan or Asia, these 'make your own yogurt' shops - Ray Cromwell

the irony is to build the cloud we need to be physically close to each other. hence, the cloud is more than one generation away. it takes a social shift which isn't happening. - xyz

Well, those Taiwanese startups were never VC funded. :-) Jamba Juice is the real story here. But yeah, food startups are rare, because it's rare for them to experience the kind of hypergrowth you see in technology. - Piaw Na

Page and Brin are cited as examples of startup productivity. That's just bad statistics. Most startups go belly up. Innovation comes out of large companies or institutions too (Xerox PARC, CERN). Like the "best schools are small" fallacy, looking at exceptional cases is not very helpful to understand a phenomenon. - Antonio Piccolboni

I like using Diigo than Del.icio.us - Oliver Ding

I use del.icio.us as my bookmarks. I've never used the sharing features and rarely search. I'm not sure how I could find a link again once I've stuck it in FF. - phil.gs

I use del.icio.us as a substitute for my browser bookmarks, so I can access my bookmarks from anywhere. I also have it post a daily summary to my blog, but I don't really use the sharing features. FriendFeed isn't a good choice to save bookmarks for future use. - Mike Hussein Cohen

y, diigo is the best - poorbird

Del.icio.us is basically how I control all of my "bookmarks". All the rest are just social media! Needless, it's very valuable to me - MikeonTV

I still use Del.icio.us - ok call me old school, but I like "in the cloud" apps! And as you ALL know by know... I am # 3 evangelist of FriendFeed (Scoble & Louis Gray are first/second), so I post more del.icio.us links knowing you all will see them!! yes, my way of saving my links and sharing them!! double whammy! (and yes i know how to use the bookmarklet feature! doh!) - Susan Beebe

del.icio.us interfaces great with friendfeed and it makes it easy for me to reference something. It wouldn't be great if I really had a hard time defending it. - Noah David Simon

I use Diigo (and Del.icio.us hooked up as auto replicate). I don't generally post the same stuff to FriendFeed that I bookmark. The services serve two different purposes, and as Mike said, it's not as easy to look up things again in FF. If I post something in FF it's because I want to talk about it. Posting to Diigo/Del is to archive it so I can find it again later. - Lindsay

I use del.icio.us when I know I really want to tag sometime, but nowhere near as often as I used to. - Mike Reynolds

I like this much better than del.icio.us! - Ethan Klapper

Del.icio.us is great! I put all my bookmarks there and I can easily find them. Firefox own tag system is good but del.icio.us gives popular tags so I don't need to make up them. - k00pa
