Gist: My friend Deborah Norville* says she should have ignored NBC and talked to the media during the Today Show debacle. "I don't think 'disrespect' is a strong enough word for what they did to me. I was vilified." (*Disclosure: Life's journey leads to interesting friendships.) - Rex Hammock

Twitter Starts Curating Trending Topic Tweets | MG Seigler, TechCrunch - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
The Twitter feature I hate the most, Trending Topics, is getting tweaked by Twitter. I don't hate the notion of surfacing topics that are getting discussed the most. Why I think it's broken is that link spammers on Twitter immediately tag their spam tweets with any term that hits the top trend list, making it meaningless to click on the trend to see what it's about. Perhaps what MG is writing about will help solve that dilemma. - Rex Hammock
