All about Terry Jones' Fluid Info, which is really awesome. - Robert Scoble

nice - Jordi Rivero

"Click each image to see the higher resolution photography at Navy.mil. Looks like it was a hard enough collision for the sail to get knocked to the starboard pretty good. No sailors were killed, and all sailors who were injured returned to duty" - Jim Norris from Bookmarklet

ohh, that's gonna end some careers.And that security guy on the sail looks like he's lugging a big ol' M60 - Navy probably doesn't see much value buying expensive new small arms for their expensive new big arms :) - Sean

I went home and Google'd him and learned he co-discovered the Ebola virus. Some people, when you meet them, you just know they are smart. They exude smartness. They make you feel humble without even saying a single word. I felt that around Peter Piot, I shot his badge, not to remember his face but so I would remember his name to do some research on later. I was blown away. This is the problem with Davos. You get thrust into a room with 50 interesting people and you have no idea what makes them interesting. I wish I had known more about Peter before I had met him, but there is something interesting about the serendipity of meeting someone new. Some of the most interesting people I've met have been people I've met out of the blue. How about you? - Robert Scoble from Bookmarklet

It's funny when he liked an item in there http://friendfeed.com/e... I was thinking, "the name's familiar" and was Googling it then Maureen chipped in and I was like 'wow' too, it's a small world on the internets. - Sally Church

I don't know how I forgot to mention that I've been to Goa, it's beautiful. Although my ex-girlfriend was sexually assaulted by a police officer, so I won't trust them. - Daniel W. Crompton

well we've only got the bar-owners word that the guy was a cop! Scary all the same though - remember how fast we ran! :) Still apart from that I've got good memories of Goa - remember that empty hotel that my friend hooked us up with??? And the sunburn? And the way you trashed your phone playing in the waves?? :) - Sean

That's the danger, people don't read carefully. - Dominic Jones

Chris - you need a break. Come on out to Utah and we can go skiing together. We can get a room at a resort (just don't tell my wife - maybe separate rooms would be best), go to the spa, kick back and relax. - Jesse Stay

Let me guess -- this study was done by men? - Brian Sullivan

The date on it is 2003 so of course CNN looked different.... - Bora Zivkovic

"Ricoh, in particular, seemed to understand that some of us were looking for compact cameras for serious photography" - Anthony Farrior from Bookmarklet

I don't think it is a dslr thing -- my first digital camera was a Sony compact -- it had a viewfinder. Buying a camera without a viewfinder is a serious error in my mind. But touting a camera without a viewfinder for "serious photography" tells me the touter is not to be taken seriously. - Brian Sullivan

"MODESTO, California (CNN) -- The photograph became an icon of the Great Depression: a migrant mother with her children burying their faces in her shoulder. Katherine McIntosh was 4 years old when the photo was snapped. She said it brought shame -- and determination -- to her family. "I wanted to make sure I never lived like that again," says McIntosh, who turns 77 on Saturday. "We all worked hard and we all had good jobs and we all stayed with it. When we got a home, we stayed with it." McIntosh is the girl to the left of her mother when you look at the photograph. The picture is best known as "Migrant Mother," a black-and-white photo taken in February or March 1936 by Dorothea Lange of Florence Owens Thompson, then 32, and her children." - Thomas Hawk from Bookmarklet

It's going to be much worse when the next depression hits. - Michael Forian

ohh yeah, and we're gonna see more and more of this type of behaviour. The goal of all good capitalists is to create a monopoly. - Sean

Sean, the goal is not to create a monopoly because that is dangerous in the eyes of federal regulations. What companies really want is to become dominant in the space, but still let the little people play around. See Google and search. - Rob Diana

Sorry Rob, I disagree. That's why the competition authorities exist, because *consumers* need competition, but a *company* wants a monopoly. The Feds (in the US) can take a long time to recognise and react to a monopoly - e.g. AT&T, Microsoft, Standard Oil.. etc. etc. - Sean

"Sales figures show that shoppers are having second thoughts about the value of organic foods, particularly fruits, vegetables and meats. But they're not giving up entirely on these products. Hennessey said she still pays a premium for organic cereal and eggs for her 4-year-old daughter, and Frantz said he splurges on organic eggs and dairy products. Overall sales of organic food are still rising, though the industry's robust growth of recent decades is tapering off, analysts said. Cassie Green, owner of Green Grocer Chicago, says her sales have been flat in recent months, following a period of steady growth when the store opened in January. "The same amount or more of people are coming in, but they're buying less," Green said." - FFing Enigma (aka Tina) from Bookmarklet

I think everything is going to be fine. ...that is what I am afraid of. guess who will take all the credit? - Noah David Simon

um... where did you get your concept of fat matt? From all the photos i've seen, Mona has a long way to go. - InPerpetualMotion(Gina k)

@9. What? I'm NOT supposed to stir the coffee with the cigarettes? How am I supposed to get my nicotine? - Sean

Interesting and expensive way to get arrested at the beach... - MVB (Grinch of FF)

That's true in this pic, but I wonder how obvious it would be in bright sunlight, or in poorly-lit situations. - Ladybug Heather

Ho già risposto da loro, comunque, no. I controller non sono quelli ufficiali. - Federico [Kurai]

Non credo: Nintendo non può incazzarsi proprio perché in quel video tutto ammicca a, ma non è: il gioco non è il tennis di Wii Sports (mancano i cartelloni pubblicitari e il pubblico), il Wii non si vede, i controller non sono quelli del wii ma sembrano cornette del telefono (!) modificate, i Mii non sono uguali a quelli di Nintendo, ma fatti da zero. - Federico [Kurai]

Certo, può essere. Ma tendo a credere che sia stato fatto più per problemi di copyright, e che il tutto venga da qualche studio pro-am, o da qualche filmaker indipendente. - Federico [Kurai]

I wish she would put where she got it - Shevonne

Love it!. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

My guess is 80,000 of them are front and center in that photo. - Akiva Moskovitz

agreed - John Mercer

These are cool, I saw a prototype in RSA headquarters in Boston in 2007, nice to see them finally being released. - by way of Bruce Schneier - Daniel W. Crompton from Bookmarklet

Beautiful picture! - Anna Haro

A great picture and dress - RAPatton

never turn down free food. From Dublin to Rajastan, New South Wales to Sicily, that's always been my trusty motto! - Sean

That is a great motto to go by and one that I hold dear. - James Ferguson

love - Anna Haro

Got the chance to catch the Wailers a few years ago. Awesome stuff! - Dan Monzelowsky

Could I talk any of you into accepting a Top Ten FriendFeed Friends Challenge similar to the TwiTip Twitter Challenge? http://www.growmap.com/friendf... (This post and your two prior lists are already linked in, Mike.) - Internet Strategist

Hi MiniMage. You're right. Tamar pointed that out as well. It is just a feed. My mistake. I'm fairly new here and saw their excellent blog content and didn't think to verify they were active too. One good thing about making mistakes it that it does attract more comments. :-) I'm not new to blogging but I still make plenty of them. - Internet Strategist

Typically, people state blog search or blog "tracking" and rankings. Are people still looking to Technorati for this? If not, what is being used? What do we really need? - Rob Diana

I was actually somewhat hesitatnt myself in the beginning but I have to say it is better than I expected. So definitely worth keeping it in mind. - Svetlana Gladkova from twhirl

Grow my own food, compost my poo, stuff like that. - James (@willia4)

I'll start researching composting toilets in the meantime. :) - Bran Mydwynter

If I give you my relatives addresses can you sign my name too? :-) - Todd Hoff

Heh. It's hardly a gift it I take up a collection! - Ladybug Heather

that said, the guy has certainly promoted himself today! all publicity is good publicity, no? - Sean

Sean, publicity is generally a good thing, but he is being positioned as an idiot. That is when the "all pub is good pub" thing falls down. "Bad pub" can be turned into good pub, like what the Ford CEO is doing. In the social media world, being called out as an idiot will rarely lead to good prospects. - Rob Diana

Except that his clients very likely don't know much about social media and just see the headline figures. Of course, if the idiot tag leaks into his google search results, that's another matter :) - Sean
