My son is asking another entrepreneur about his business. Makes me proud. Is asking same questions I would be asking: why would I use your service? What makes it special. Entrepreneur answers back "you sound just like your dad." heh.
mini-scobleizer.com (not a real site) :) I saw Loic interview Daniel...Loic said something like it felt too limited, somebody else tried the same thing. He suggested that Daniel do something like organize teen communities for seesmic and he'd be first customer...

Your son should have an account in friendfeed

Daniel is inspiring - he's living the life I wish I could have at that age. The next Ben Casnocha...

Yuvi: my son is into WoW, not blogging or FriendFeed.
- Robert Scoble
Can I send him after Commissioner Tate? She's obsessed with "protecting children"
- Andrew Feinberg
Andrew: Patrick hates people who try to censor what he sees. But you can't change the minds of people who see the world like that.
- Robert Scoble
*sigh* so, so true...her fact checking is awful though...I've nailed her several times and she runs away from me in heels now. Protection != control.
- Andrew Feinberg
Dave, me neither. I had an account for less than a month and then cancelled it because I didn't find it that interesting compared to the hype I've heard from my friends.

I can see maybe connecting with old school chums. But I don't really see its use in business, and I have an 18-year-old daughter who's made it clear it's HER TURF. Seems to me we've got plenty of other places to play -- here, and associated spaces, plus blogs, plus LinkedIn, which is big-ish in St. Louis. And in my field, I really like AdGabber.

I'm with you, most people I know are on it and active members, been trying to avoid it. Not 100% sure why, just never got into it.

i don't like any other sites,i got an account 2 an it's boring,lmao

I'm an FB user, but only minimally. I mostly use it to keep in touch with friends long since lost. But actually logging in... not much, I get my updates and such via an imaginary friend setup here at FF and also I get updates in SocialThing, consequently I almost never log straight in to it unless I need to reply to someone, so as long as they don't lock anything off from access, I could care less about it.
- nick carrasco
The rest of the planet doesn't seem to care much about facebook either. So you're definitely not alone.
- Luis Figueiredo
I am still a member over at Facebook - but purely to remain connected with old school friends.
- Jonathan Beckett
I stay for the Scrabble, pure and simple.
- Kevin C. Tofel
I like to have my FB pge automatically updated by other apps like Twitter, Last.fm etc. so I don't actually have to go to FB and do anything. That way it looks like I'm somewhat active to people who are interested and I don't have to bother.

I do like the FB private video mail, especially to connect to friends who are on FB & noplace else.
- Brian Rendel
I don't, but I also don't give a flying fcuk that you don't give a flying fcuk - in the same way that you don't give a flying fcuk on my views on Bebo, Google, Seesmic et al, for sure

i don't use it much but we're out of the demo - watch a gen y interacting w/ their tribe sometime on fb - they're it
- mike "glemak" dunn
I agree. I tried to use for marketing purposes, it failed miserably. Then I tried to use it for fun and it was worthless.
- J Allen
I think Facebook is a good tool. Maybe if you are Dave Winer you don't need it.
- Vic Podcaster
May be user error, but FaceBook didn't seem as useful as hoped. I thought it'd bring cool convos together. I still have to hunt.

I've been a Facebook user till recently when they decided to disable my account. Here is the link to the whole saga http://friendfeed.com/e...
- Vic Podcaster
It was a great way to communicate with close friends and family while 5000 miles away
- Sally Church
Facebook started off with excitement, and ended up with apathy. FF started with curiosity, and has ended up with real social interaction. I know where i'm spending my time...
- Iain Baker
You're clearly not alone. I have yet to sign up.
- Tsega Dinka
Oh is that what that FB stands for on my FF nav bar. Now that scrabulous is gone, not sure what the appeal is, unless you're trying to reach the younger crowd. YUK. I do like Knighthood though, let's you paWn your coFBers.

take my breath away - Berlin (top gun is on in the background). Just before that and for that past few days it's been the freeze ray song from Dr. Horrible. :)

Wish that I could cry Fall upon my knees Find a way to lie About a home I’ll never see It may sound absurd...but don’t be naive Even heroes have the right to bleed I may be disturbed...but won’t you concede Even heroes have the right to dream It’s not easy to be me

I have the music from Dr. Horrible stuck in my head. "A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do..."

from Alert Thingy
so whats the deal with Dr. horrible anyway?
- Caroline
"It's a brand new day and the sun is high, the birds are singing that you're gonna die..." I haven't been able to stop singing the songs from Dr. Horrible since this weekend.

Satisfaction by Benny Benassi -- b/c it's playing on Pandora
- Cliff
If the New Yorker wanted attention, they now have the complete, undivided attention of the story generation department of the news media. We'll be reading analysis on the overcoverage of this for YEARS.
- Mike Seidle
Is the cover any less satirical then a Colbert Report? If this cover makes anyone actually think twice about Obama then we are screwed.
- Chris McLean
I have no objection to parody, or to political cartoons pushing the limits, but the POV is lost in this cover and I find it singularly unfunny. *shrug* - I don't think it'll have much impact one way or the other, anyway.
- Blackeyed P
@Sarah It will have a huge impact on the people who don't understand satire or those who choose not to acknowledge that it is satirical. Expect to see it used in many anti-Obama email forwards, blown up poster size for anti-Obama rallies, etc.
- EricaJoy
@erica time will tell. my guess honestly is that it will blow over.

Our wall-to-wall coverage of the iPhone launch starts in two hours and continues until the last Apple Store opens in Honolulu at 11a tomorrow. Watch me kill myself with 24 hours of non-stop coverage at http://twitlive.tv

LOL @ Q: "What is Bill Gates' greatest achievement?" Answer: "None"
- Mona Nomura
I'm glad to got around to agreeing, unanimously, that Bill's not evil; that gave most of the show comments/arguments some credibility.
- mark dekruyter
If there never was a gates and MS, IBM would have mismanaged the PC and dropped it, there would have been no Apple left for Jobs to rescue, and we'd all be using Commodore 256's.

Great episode, I'm loving all the stories from all the old timers :)

@leolaporte please thank JohnC for showing . Made my day, love tech history and cranky old geeks..Bestest twit yet.

Great episode, except John ate the entire time. I felt very hungry by the time the episode was finished.
- ComicList
I loved last night's episode. Great as always
