The Palm Pre commercial girl creeps the hell out of me. GAH! - http://images.google.com/images...

she annoys the hell out of me.
- Bren, Photophobe
I don't see why people fine her creepy?!
- Soup
I think it's the flat affect that gets me. Like she's been drugged and made to appear in the commercial...
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
true, but with it going to verizon, i'll probably buy 1
- echostreamer
I dono, with some of the rants I've heard about 'em and how underimpressed I was while playing with one at the store briefly, I think the idea of an Android phone impresses me more.
- Wirehead
I've had my G1 for a year and I'm still quite pleased with it. They can pry my real keyboard from my cold dead hands =D
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
her and the berries and cream starburst commercial guy would make beautiful and really scary babies!
- Mike Lewis
I always mistake her for Tilda Swinton and people think Swinton is beautiful (I don't see it, but whatever).
- Soup
Well I hope the Palm Pre is much better the the HTC Touch Pro, Because it really has serious issues....
- SCS Watching the Sun
Me too! My husband claims she is "angelic." I think she alien-esque.
- Jenny R.
http://www.youtube.com/watch... She used to do something else.
- Matthew DeVries
She is sooooooo monochromatic.
- Mary Carmen
I love my Android phone. Even thought the G1 is a bit of a dog, it's still wonderful and wonderous and I'm amazed at the things it can do. Tina - I've been trying to use the soft keyboard on it more and more, because it looks like everyone is dead set on never making a real keyboard ever again. 29 new Android phones launch between august and christmas and only 1 had a keyboard, and it looked lame.
- Matthew DeVries
your both right, she's aliengelic
- echostreamer
She reminds me of: http://johneaves.files.wordpress.com/2009...
- Alix Whitmire
i agree, she is creepy...the first time i saw that commercial i had goosebumps
- Marissa
She appears disturbingly close to the "uncanny valley" from the healthy person side.
- Fred Yankowski
100% creepy and annoying, well done Palm.
- Nicholas Kreidberg
Yeah scares the crap out of me, makes me think the phone will do the same =P
- Travis Koger
very creepy, but I feel compelled to buy one now...........?
- echostreamer
ALBINO!

I wonder if the Albino lobby will get to a point where they hate that word and come up with a fluffy term by which to refer to them.

But does it link to my Adult Friend Finder account?
- Mike Nayyar
The question is... How would normal users feel about a search engine using their Facebook data. A lot of people like the walled garden of Facebook, especially with their jobs.
- Johnny Worthington
Johnny: this could be what helps open up Facebook for people. Searching Facebook is kind of the "final frontier" that Facebook needs to conquer, and this could accelerate people down the path of being open with their data, and sharing things across platforms (i.e. beyond facebook.com)
- Mike Nayyar
most of my twitter and facebook follows list are non-friends - guess google will be searching a lot of work/industry related people for my "social"
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
even the partial streams they offer are subscription based - you have to tell twitter what list of ids you want to arrive over the firehost
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
What happens if someone buys Twitter
- Johnny Worthington
Wave would be good for show notes...anyone doing this?
- Dale

- notagolfer
With the acquisition of FriendFeed, FaceBook has brought in some powerful advocates for Google juice.
- JR Holmes
Twitter has kind of hit the post page Internet by having a (relatively) open API and allowing apps (which generate profit from the functionality of the API) to profit

I'm kinda scared I'm going to run into Mo's rule about arguing with black women here, but in my case, I think I'll win. If she goes ballistic, then we can all start sending tweets with her name referring to something else entirely. :D

So TAD is some sort of place or conference? So she's just using @ instead of "at" it looks like. So she really just needs to a put damn space in between those two. Doubtful she'll get that either though.

When they say TAD they mean Twitter After Dark. #TAD doesn't show up as a reply to me, so I don't care if they use that. @TAD shows up in my replies and I'm going to have fun with them when they do that.

@Pea - apparently someone who's got more than 3K tweets CAN be totally clueless about how to use Twitter... What's the whole "Twitter after Dark, (convos u can't have during the day)" thing anyway??

Jordan, that she did. I replied "Why would my feelings be hurt? You're the one who can't tell the difference between # and @. But then I deleted it immediately because Tad suggested we leave her alone.

Do they not understand that @ is for replying and sending messages, and the hashtags are for reference and searches?! Also very rude to ask you to change your name instead of them changing one simple character.
- Charlotte M
Eh - I'm just gonna block everyone referring to me as Twitter After Dark. No big loss, I don't think.
- Internet's Tad
from fftogo
Charlotte - yes, they don't understand how to use Twitter and they took offense that I was upset at them referring to me by name. *shrug* As CW said, someone people just shouldn't use technology. But, that's what block is for. So I'll quit whining about it.
- Internet's Tad

So, if enough of us block all of these jokers, will their accounts get flagged by Twitter? I wish there was a "report as STUPIDLY using Twitter" button.

Probably not worth all that effort. They can just keep their corner of the internet cordoned off from the ones who know how to use it properly.
- Internet's Tad

So, do you think their refusal to switch from @Tad to #Tad was a matter of just being discourteous, or "you ain't gonna tell me what to do!" or something else? Surely it's not a matter of not seeing the difference...

It really seemed like a matter of not completely comprehending the difference.

+1. Google Wave is a giant spam vector at the moment: http://friendfeed.com/bgolub.... I think it's because I am on many contact lists because I am active on developer mailing lists (FriendFeed, Tornado, Twitter, etc.) and Google's default is to add me to your contacts if we have ever had a direct exchange, which happens on occasion....

- Joe
I'm a fan, but I'm only using it for specific conversations and projects with small sets of people at the moment. If I see a new wave with more than about 20 people on it, I just delete it.
- Ken Sheppardson
Ken, I was trying to use wave for that. It won't let me delete anything. The wave still shows up in my inbox.
- joey
Can't you mute waves?

the mute button is your friend
- chrisofspades
Yes, but it doesn't make it go away. It's still there in my inbox, taunting me.
- joey
Can't you archive it?

Mute should make it go away (unless it is buggy right now). Mute = archive + never return to the inbox.
- Benjamin Golub
Why would I want to archive it? I just want to delete it.
- joey

- cecily
This is Google. You're not allowed to delete things.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I just select the wave in my inbox and hit the "Trash" button or hit the "Trash" button in the right hand view of the note and it goes away, i.e. it goes to your Trash, and you only see it again if you move it back to your inbox.

Oh, Akiva, I should have known. They build their ad servers the same way.

Ken, I've trashed every message on the waves and the waves themselves but it's still in my inbox.

- Ken Sheppardson
The trash-button is totally unpredictable. Sometimes it works like a charm, sometimes you click it 10 times and nothing happens, sometimes the wave disappears 10 minutes later. Annoying.
- Tapio Kulmala
Um isn't this thing still in Beta? So why would anyone expect it to be perfect now?

I think there's a big difference between "expecting it to be perfect" and "expecting to be able to easily delete/unsubscribe from stuff."

Oh, then carry on w/ the whining.
- Joe
I am on the same wave and I want to THANK that person for adding me so I can see how this works!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Joe
Joe, if you think my post is just whining and you want to be passive aggressive and assume what wave I'm talking about, why don't you just hide this thread?
- joey
Joey just read the documentation that says you can mute threads, but alas, I muted that one we're both on, and it popped up again with unread messages. I think this is an official bug.

JFC, I hate real time. My first comment would've been that the Peace Prize adds a certain gravitas to what you're doing. Regardless of whether the Peace Prize is supposed to acknowledge past accomplishments (we discussed that here: http://friendfeed.com/kfury...), from a US interests perspective, this could really help us out.
- Mark Trapp
Ah, thanks RAP: I forgot about him.
- Mark Trapp
Gorbachev was also in office.
- John (a.k.a. dendroica)
Wilson looks like a closer analogue to Obama, being awarded the Peace Prize for work that wasn't even finished (the Treaty of Versailles) , but Gorbachev is interesting for receiving it as his country was collapsing.
- Mark Trapp
So is the award designed to make a statement or reward achievement? I thought it was the latter.
- Mike Lewis
The Nobel Peace Prize is alone in its distinction to be awarded for either. It's not uncommon for it to be awarded for ongoing work (like in the case of Wilson, Kofi Annan, and Carter),
- Mark Trapp
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... "Unlike the other Nobel Prizes, which recognize completed scientific or literary accomplishment, the Nobel Peace Prize may be awarded to persons or organizations that are in the process of resolving a conflict or creating peace. As some such processes have failed to create lasting peace, some Peace Prizes appear questionable in hindsight."

No!
- Veronica
Maybe after maiming and/or killing the responsible party :)
- Carlos Urrutia
Heh heh.
- Dave Friedel
I'm with you. There would definitely be death or maiming in the aftermath.
- Jeff Harbert
The responsible party would be smart to wear a Bearonica Suit if he/she wants to survive :)
- Carlos Urrutia
I have to agree. Children of the next 14 generations would tremble in fear at the memory of what I would do to that guy.
- Michael Conguista
Time spent on the throne is sacred. That's like home base!
- Mike Lewis
At least the lights were on when it happened :)
- Carlos Urrutia
*ALWAYS* check behind the shower curtain!
- Sean McCune
Totally, there would be death if someone did that with me
- Amy
Yeah, someone might lose a lung...
- Thomas
Among other things...
- Carlos Urrutia
Thomas: lol! :P
- Amy
Was that directed at me. Discriminating against us 'one-lung' people is illegal you know. And for the record, I think V would pass out cold if someone jumped out at her in the toilet.
- Dave Friedel
Dammit, now the evil bone has awoken... -_-
- Carlos Urrutia
That sounds dirty. LOL.
- Dave Friedel
Captain One-Lung: Nooooo, he's talking about my ninja skills
- Amy
"Captain One-Lung" - I like it :)
- Thomas
Only problem is people will see this and try it, I'm not sharing this with my friends lol
- Fee501st
I only wish I still played the clarinet.
- Carlos Urrutia
Captain One Lung is here to save the day! In a moment... I'm a little out of breath... ok... no wait... ok, here I am!!

So is your kryptonite a spare-the-air day?
- Thomas
Wouldn't that increase his powers?
- Amy
Of course if you want to get back at the perpetrator, sic Cthulhu on them. Or if he is unavailable, the tshirt of him.
- Carlos Urrutia
I have translucent shower doors so no one can hide. Well maybe the cat as she's very short.

They want me to go back and look at the nightmare one because they can't remember if it was Ickle or Lardee that had it. I liked the post she did where she answered everyone's questions about how long it takes for her to do one episode. That's dedication.
