"Yes, the product is still in “beta,” but this is ridiculous." hahahhaaha - Mona N.
Yeah, it took much longer than normal for the closing market prices to show up correctly - Alex "Chameleon" Scoble
the problem alex is that it what it very clearly says is the closing price, is not. - MG Siegler
The funny thing is, I'm pretty sure it was right, or at least closer to right, about 20 minutes after market close. Maybe their after market trading code is messed. - Chris White
@chris - yeah i'm pretty sure it was too... i just noticed it while running some numbers - that didn't match earlier ones - MG Siegler
There were a LOT of corrections that came out after close today. Had to go back and edit. - Cyndy
Cyndy, are you saying the Google Finance quotes are correct now? - Chris White
Wow. This is extremely f'd up. I know they likely have disclaimers, etc. But, I use Google when I trade and did exactly so today. Really, really upset about this. - Christopher Sacca
let em know chris - i did before publishing, but have yet to hear back - MG Siegler
finally looks like the issues is resolved. no word still from google on what was up. was wrong for something like 12 hours. - MG Siegler
Got another version of this letter, ca. 1971. Will have to dig it up, out of the archives. Kesey & Ellison didn't reply to my fan letters, but Heinlein (his wife, actually) and Disch did. - Steven Black
That's great Steven, I would love to see that one as well. - Scott Beale
nicely written .. how were copies made back then? carbon paper? - Gregory Lent
Either mimeod or offset. They must have sent scores out a week. - Steven Black
Crap, I just figured out what I'm doing wrong. I never broadcast from being in bed with a naked chick. Mind you, that said, all the naked chicks I'm likely to be in bed with would defenestrate me for broadcasting while being in bed with a naked chick ... - Alexander Williams
Recycling my comment from 1938media.com -- if Scoble doesn't like what the aliens have to say about his DNA, how will he block them? - Omar Gallaga
If you think nuclear proliferation is bad... have we not learned from the folly of the Genesis Device? Klingons -will- weaponize Robert Scoble. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v... - qthrul
not sure ... it may increasingly look like Nixon Kennedy in 1960 ... but time is compressed extremely & the legal landscape has just expanded (voter registration, libel accusations, etc) - Scott Moskowitz
Sarcasm on the internet in general scales terribly. Once you enter information in to the monotone, monospaced cyberspace, it gets interpreted several different ways. These are hard lessons I learned on IRC :) - Glenn Batuyong
is it sarcasm or twitter your saying doesn't scale ? ;) - weblivz

Yeah, the people who know me understand that I'm being sarcastic, but you would be amazed at how many people sent me Chrome info, eventhough I posted about it on LS yesterday. - Scott Beale
The other thing I forget is that a big part of my audience is not tech, so it's possible that they haven't seen as much Chrome coverage as the rest of us. - Scott Beale
according to some reports they won't see any converage at all if they're using that browser. ok, yeah, i'm being sarcastic, i like it. - weblivz

Paul, you laugh but almost every time I post something to Twitter there is at least one person that asks "What's X?" and usually it is something very easy to figure out with a search. For example: http://twitter.com/StationA/st... - Scott Beale
Michael, if I have to mark up my sarcasm with tags, then the terrorists have won. - Scott Beale
But I bet you don't get nearly as many "What's X" questions on FriendFeed. Probably a combination of the site providing better media/link/conversation tools and the totally awesome audience. ;o) - Paul Reynolds
I don't on FF, but my guess is that it is because it is still very tech centric. Twitter is really starting to get out there way beyond the early adopters and all of our inside jokes don't always register. - Scott Beale
Please don't tell me you're going to dash my dream that Al Gore created it, I've been counting on verification of that theory for years - Daltonsbriefs
You mean to tell me it wasn't Al Gore? - Richard Peat
I'm pretty sure Al Gore was partly responsible for the subsidy of ISDN services throughout TN during his representation of the state. ISDN based Internet access was roughly a tenth of the cost compared to neighboring states. Of course, ISDN with two nailed up data channels was obscured further in the US once traditional data T1 and xDSL services began to crop up... but for a time, yes, Al Gore created "the Internet" as the subscribers -- i.e. his constituents -- know it. - qthrul
