This is superb. I just showed it to my 5 year old son who enjoys Lego and has already taken some great photos, including one or two of his toys. So now he has the seed of the idea that, in time, he could take multiple stills and put them together to make moving pictures. Thank you very much for posting it and giving me and him that opportunity. Maybe, he might use FriendFeed one day too! - John W Lewis
Great project! - Anne Bouey
AWESOME! - Kevin Fox

The place is super tiny-- basically only a counter with space behind it where many people are assembling sandwiches (the line moves really quickly). I occasionally see bread carts being wheeled in from where they bake it next door. - sara from email

News is tricky - aside from how it makes you feel. Humans like to stay up to date - but it is a /very/ inefficient way of learning things. - Tim Tyler
Agreed - there's a tiny amount of signal < 1%, coupled with mostly redundancy, noise, and bias. The biggest problem is the non-signal elements can be important social currency. - Robin Barooah from email

"I found it an interesting read. I especially liked the sentiment, "An organization that wins by exercising power starts to lose the ability to win by doing better work.", which I firmly believe. However I don't see how PG shows that Apple is somehow winning by exercising power. Can someone clarify this? PG even? I don't hear any explanation of how their exercise of power is helping them win." - Robin Barooah

Good work. I recommend not bothering to reintroduce it to check your results. - Tim Tyler
Re: "I am having trouble concentrating and coffee might help" - it probably would help. In theory, stimulants when needed is not such a bad idea. Coffee is an addictive drug, though - so use with caution - http://www.mycaffeineaddiction.com/caffein... - Tim Tyler
