Using Yahoo search for the first time in YEARS. Wow, the UI is mighty different - clean, even.

Huh? Yahoo! does search now and not just a portal?
- Louis Gray
try searching "daylight savings time" in google vs. yahoo. Yahoo shows some readily usable info.

There seems to be some problem with this video. It stops after 10 minutes or so. And if I try to download it, the download slows to very low speeds after about 80 MB of 205 MB point. Please fix it as the interview seems very interesting.
- Puneet Thapliyal
Puneet: it's corrupted. I'm reuploading a new one right now. Sorry about that. I'll let you know when it's back up.

My internet link isn't that great. Is there a way to view this with a buffering player so I see a smooth movie? I'd really like to see it but it's just jerks, halts, and spurts too much.
- Todd Hoff
I read about this project, fascinating stuff. I love that they're not sure what they're doing exactly but have set a big massive goal to see what can come out of it.
- mikepk
Wow... just had a mind blow moment. The idea of massive sensors acting as a proxy for a new kind of "conscious experience" into a pattern matching "mind". O_o
- mikepk
OK, so I guess there's no better player. Oh well.

Todd: you can download the video and use your own player. There's always a download link on the video's individual page.

I think it might have been bigger news had Windows Live Search come out with this.
- David Wilson
So, they are announcing something similar to Google Notebook, except it will automatically save some searches into said notebook sometimes. Great use of resources. Yahoo needs to really *push* something. This evolutionary (for them) stuff is not going to cut it. Look at Latitude. Tech world is going nuts over it.That should have been Yahoo. Anyone ever use Fire Eagle? Unfortunately, they can't really blame anyone but themselves.

@Lee, the problem for Yahoo is the early adopter crowd are already loyal Google users. Yahoo's core products are simply too far behind to compete for that audience. They should stick to providing their mainstream audience with simpler services.
- Steven Cains
@cains you may be right, they compete with aol, not google
- Jean-Charles VERDIE
the search pad itself seems pretty cool. check out this intro video: http://tools.search.yahoo.com/SearchP...
- Puneet Thapliyal
Robert, doesn't your post make a case for appealing to Alpha Geeks? And if it does, how does this point jive with your opinion that too many companies are building for geeks and forgetting about the everyday user?
- Andrew Warner
Andrew: if you want to be successful you've got to build for both. Build something just for the geeks and your market will be small. Build just for the mass audience and it'll be lame and won't get talked up.
- Robert Scoble
Andrew, appealing to early adopters is not optional. Late adopters don't have time to evaluate all the options; they ask their early adopter friends what's good.
- Bruce Lewis
Robert is right on as usual. I am cheering for Yahoo (partly because of my investment) but was disappointed to not be able to check out Yahoo's release except for a video. That being said, being a Mac user, that was all I could do w/Latitude as well.
- Craig Mische
how bout simply because it's just Google Notebook added to search as the primary reason? I watched the video, and I wasn't a least bit impressed.
- Duncan Riley
Yahoo is and will go the way of the dinosaur
- Bob Sonin
I agree with Duncan it isn't exactly innovating.
- Nicholas James
Yahoo is making itself being referred to -- more and more -- in the past tense.

Ah. I figured it would be weird for you to say that Gist was stealing attention away but it is the only unreleased project I had heard in relation to @god, I think. I'm eager to find out what it is anyway (even though I definitely don't need any help wasting time).

So it's addictive, doesn't replace twitter nor friendfeed, is it another social status publishing platform?

Jesse: @god says that @1938media is not trustworthy but I agree that this new thing could be a cult (hey, is friendfeed a cult?). Rida: um, no.
- Robert Scoble
It's it just more addictive, or is it more useful as well? It's important to realize that there's a difference.
- Daniel Miessler
friendfeed is the begging to something very exciting and new. Real-time web.

Daniel: hmmm, is Twitter or friendfeed useful? If you answer yes then you'll find this useful too.

Steve: you mean IRC.. :p

asfaq: IRC died a while ago(IM took over) The problem with IRC was it had a very simplistic and crude form of identity. Now way to track or follow. :)

Will this help business or something that's fun only? How can I get on the list to get a beta invite? I can't imagine something being better than FriendFeed - is that really possible??
- Jannifer @wordsforliving
I think the line between fun and Business is shrinking. We already see this with corporations using twitter internally.

Both Obama and McCain killed at the Al Smith Dinner. They should have done this instead of the debate last night. It would have given everyone in the country a laugh and helped us understand these two men much better than the debate did.

Agreed - much better than the debate. Not living in the US I did not get all jokes referring to people I've never heard of, but I don't get to vote either so fair do's.
- ickledot
@Christopher Welle - he tried the Gene Simmons thing at the debate (http://friendfeed.com/e...) ... he should do comedy the rest of the campaign. If the polls are to be believed, he's got little to lose.
- Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins
Really? I thught Obama looked stiff and as if he was reading a foregin script. McCain's a little more practiced at these roasts. But we all liked it because it wasn't vicious.
- Francine Hardaway
I agree. Obama did not do as well as McCain. McCain was funnier and Obama has some points where no one laughed and he laughed at his own jokes. This will have no effect on the election and it was kind of boring overall. The formal attire reminded me of Bush in that infamous video where he says "...I call you my base."

Fortunately John McCain's soul came out of storage today and he pushed back against the hateful vitriol, saying that he admired Senator Obama and he wasn't someone to be feared. I, for one, am glad that McCain decided he couldn't take that direction any farther.
- Jason Carreira
Jason, right but I wished his camp hadn't gone there in the first place, it was unnecessary and distasteful.
- Sally Church
No doubt. I'm glad to see John McCain still has a limit on how far he'll debase his dignity and the dignity of the presidential election process. Hopefully this will lead to a repudiation of the Rovian campaign tactics and we'll see them look for a new way to run substantive campaigns.

Actually, I got very confused by the navigation. I keep clicking in the wrong place, and I'm still not sure which actions cause music to start playing. It seems kind of cool though, and apparently they have FriendFeed integration!

5 minutes in, was still trying to figure out how to get a song to play. and then that thing on the bottom left expanded and I figured it out. A little too much discovery involved for me tastes, but cool idea nonetheless!

hey raymond, what issue did you have w/ the navigation? if you would be so kind: james at thesixtyone dot com
- James Miao
Amazing good UI (or even genius), very nice site and I found a lot of interesting and unknown music there! I somehow never liked last.fm and ilike.com was a bit better for me, but still not the best. I'm not interested in sharing what I'm listening to at the moment (as I often listen to one album for many days or weeks), but I like to discover new music and maybe share recommendations with friends. I'm highly impressed with thesixtyone.

@ gregory: candidness appreciated. while thesixtyone's positioning is very deliberate, we can always improve on communicating the wide range of benefits for using the site (i.e. you can listen without having to interact with the site).

Excellent site and great service, I check out the Hot tunes each week
- Kol Tregaskes
I believe this site is a lesson in how not to design a UI. After a couple minutes of registering and trying to figure stuff out...I'm done and I haven't even heard a song yet. Someone's going to have to make it a bit easier to get started. Going to this site for the first time is just like running Emacs.

OK, after restarting Firefox, I seem to have music playing. Not the best experience...but since I'm into music and always looking for new ways to discover music, I went through the pains. I don't think I can point my non-techie friends to this site, though.

Hmm, music started playing for me immediately, and it was pretty obvious what to do. But I'm not sure why that thing at the left is closed by default. If I hadn't read about it in this thread, I might not have discovered it.
