Disqus really should do a deal with identi.ca
What kind of deal? - Marina Martin
In what way? Would would it look like? - Aldon Hynes
huh - Victor from twhirl
I mentioned this in passing in my piece, earlier this week, with my identi.ca todo list. The biggest thing about FF are the discussions. You could easily integrate disqus with Identi.ca or Twitter for that matter, to give the same effect and connect back to our blogs. This would end the uncomfortable duality, when some discussion is taking place on the blog and some on FF. They really need to be the same thing. I already use Discqus on my site and I don't want to change. - Dave Winer
I'm still torn between Disqus and Intense Debate... - Glenn Batuyong
I'd be interested to see how they could do a deal that was compatible with the AGPL Laconi.ca licensing and the CC licensing on Identi.ca content. - Ken Sheppardson
I have blogged a similar idea some weeks ago http://webtropic.wordpress.com/2008... - Nikos Anagnostou
i'm moving over to disqus as soon as this happens. As soon as I can fully integrate comments from friendfeed, twitter, plurk etc.. into comments. - Zee.
I discovered disqus through scripting.com the other day, and tried it out myself on my own site. I'm seriously impressed, but I'm holding back from a full implementation as it uses JavaScript. A system like disqus that uses PHP (thereby removing browser dependencies) would be a killer ... I wonder if it's possible? - Brian Heys
Does Disqus provide OPML versions of the comments ? Candidate for OPML inclusion. - Jean-Yves Stervinou
Just as facebook copied FriendFeed (and in a good way). Disqus would be great for twitter (and vice versa), i dont really use any of the other microblogs, the community is on twitter and until it shuts down, i'm on twitter. - Sahil Desai
Disqus is not Free Software (see the Franklin Street Statement, http://autonomo.us/2008...) so that's not going to happen. - Earle Martin
Really -- what if identi.ca does a plug-in API, how would they stop it from happening? They already support the Twitter API, so I'm afraid you've already lost the battle of it's "not going to happen" -- sorry to be the one to deliver the bad news! :-) - Dave Winer
You said "should do a deal with identi.ca". I'm sorry to be the one (that is, identi.ca employee) that points out that we don't do "deals" with unfree services. What other people do with our API is up to them, but you certainly won't see any integration at this end. - Earle Martin
what advantage does intense debate have over disqus? - Greg Bond from twhirl
Robert Scoble
Front-row seat to John Edwards sex scandal - http://scobleizer.com/2008...
Someday, AP is going to realize how wrong they were - Charlie Anzman
who cares? ever heard of private life? - Joe Breen
This type of stuff happens every day to famous and non-famous alike - I'm not sold your photo is all that unique as the articles seemed to play up. The real story is how the mainstream media ignored the story -- and how National Enquirer is suddenly more right than sensationalist. - Wayne Schulz
add me to the minority - Marco(aureliusmaximus)
The minority is growing, put me on the list. +1 Joe, private life should be just that. - Aaron Krug
thats the problem with American's and their view points. You are wiling to let a polictical candidate say one thing and yet do another thing and you all want to still elect the person ?? Hide behind the banner of "pvt life" and lets keep eyes wide closed. So then STFU about oil, food prices, housing crisis, health etc and keep your eyes closed - Peter Dawson
@Peter, it is his pvt. life. We cannot snoop into the bedrooms of people and worry about it. What enraged most people in this case is his use of his wife in the campaign even after his "affair". In fact, if not for Elizabeth, Edwards wouldn't have enjoyed the support he had. In fact, I don't care if he had sex with another woman or not. It is between him and his wife and NO ONE else has any right to poke their nose into it. (contd) - Krishnan Subramanian
What is wrong and what enraged me was his use of Elizabeth in the campaign while he was screwing another woman. If he had used her in the campaign, I wouldn't have bothered about his sex life at all. He had misused/abused the trust we kept on him due to Elizabeth. - Krishnan Subramanian
"He had misused/abused the trust we kept on him due to Elizabeth" .....ahhhhh-- at least some1 has a spine around here and be an advocate of truth, in some form ! - Peter Dawson
Krish: it isn't any of our business, true, but he was trying to be President at the time. Me? Only Valleywag cares what I do in my bedroom. Here, though, the stakes are bigger, especially since his wife is someone a lot of people liked and who has cancer. - Robert Scoble
There's something Gary Hartesque about this. His opening up his life to bloggers while knowing he was living a lie. It's almost like he was wanting to get caught. Hey, I'm not a psychiatrist, but I play one on the blogosphere. - Rex Hammock
Rex: yeah, there's something about that too that's sort of interesting. Here he gave me HUGE access. Behind the scenes, or so I thought. Not behind the scenes enough, obviously. :-) - Robert Scoble
@rex, ... FF is your big 'psychiatrist' couch ?? LOL - Peter Dawson
Add me to the minority too. I don't care less what you do in your private life. If you transgress the law, let the law deal with you, otherwise you should be left alone to choose your own path. - Ian May
I feel sorry for his wife, firstly that she has cancer, and secondly that he did what he did, but I'd still maintain it's his (and her) business, and not ours to pass any kind of judgement on. He isn't the first, and won't be the last, spouse to be unfaithful to a sick partner. - Ian May
"It reminds me that as a blogger/journalist I have to always capture images, not knowing what the real story actually will turn out being. And always keep looking beyond what I was being presented." That is definitely true. Readers should do the same re: stories. - Wade Dorrell
Can you imagine if he had captured the nomination? We'd be looking at an open convention and utter chaos for the party. And what of the folks who dedicated their time and money to a guy who *knew* that he had a ticking time-bomb in his background, waiting for someone to uncover it. - bob corrigan
It's also a big news story because it pretty much seals his fate of another vice presidential run. - Brian Ries
Another scoop from the National Enquirer... - Bill Sodeman
Robert Scoble
I hate NBC. They aren't putting the Olympics on live. That really sucks.
How can you not agree with this? Hey, Robert, do you have access to CBC? I've been liking their coverage. - Patricia F. Anderson
It says "live" in teh corner of my nbc swimfeed - ωαřмaiden, MFA'd poet
WarMaiden: I already know that Phelps won a goal and set a world record but it won't be on here in California until later tonight. - Robert Scoble
TV is dead. Time delays are dead. In Canada, they don't allow local broadcasting of election results until your region's polls have closed. The Internet has killed that old-fashioned idea. Time delay TV is so 1988. - Stephen Pierzchala
Aaah, gotcha - ωαřмaiden, MFA'd poet
We hear this every four years, but if you truly want the Olympcs to be live with the 12-hourdifference, be waring to go at 3 a.m. That said, I notice that at least for the East Coasters are getting some of the big events live while us West Coasters have to wait three hours... But we're used to that... - Chris Reed
CBC is the perfect model. Live, inclusive, no smaltzy profiles, just the sports. - Kathleen Mazzocco
NBC sucks. Why aren't they showing more of the Olympics? At 7 they showed Access Hollywood Weekend, now they are doing "Olympic Zone" live from Downtown Palo Alto??? WTF?? - PC Easy from twhirl
Ben: are you on East Coast? - Robert Scoble
Robert, you sure are in a hateful mood tonight..but I am with ya..so carry on. - Scot Duke
that sucks. here in Detroit we've got the CBC too, although at least on EST, they've had just as much live coverage for the first time since at least '92 - Richard Lawler from twhirl
Scot: I hate it cause people are talking about it on Twitter and I can't watch for three more hours. Sigh. - Robert Scoble
Agreed PC. Their announcers suck, their stupid commercial breaks every 5 minutes suck. Ugh, I want decent coverage of this stuff already. - Dennis Jackson
I am with ya on the Twitter talk about it. I have been trying to watch it online and that sucks as well. - Scot Duke
agreed that the CBC coverage has been great so far...too bad they've lost the broadcast rights for the olympics after this year... - Trent Olson
And it appears NBC may have altered the broadcast of the Opening Ceremony to place TeamUSA in primetime: http://tinyurl.com/5pu92v - Peter Svensk
I am so angry that I can't watch my friends who are racing over there...I have to read about it and hope for youtube. Not angry. Outraged. - Andrew Feinberg
And the MSM wonders why people pirate content and feeds.... - Duncan Riley
gee .. like no-one thought this would happen huh .. a corporation re-writing history to help their bottom line .. I am so shocked <GASP> - Steven Hodson
+1 for CBC - JT Perry
Have you tried the NBC Olympics site? http://www.nbcolympics.com/tv_and_... Some content is streamed live... you may have to adjust your sleeping habits to can the next round of competion in four hours from now. - Anthony K. Valley ©
Robert - Yes East Coast, but they are back to recorded gymnastics. "LIVE" is gone. - Ben Newton
I'm watching it live right now. Is it a west coast thing? There are tons of live events online this year, even practice sessions. Requires MSoft Silverlight but pretty good quality streams. - Andrew Leyden
I watched the opening ceremony on my TV via Sopcast&Tvants (pc hooked up to TV). Watched it again in HDTV on NBC later that night. This link has all the ways to catch coverage http://howto.wired.com/wiki... - Andrew Leyden
and you are surprised? at all? honestly? - Thomas Vincent
I'm watching CBC in Canada. http://www.cbc.ca/olympics Do you think it would be any different if another network was covering the Olympics in the States? - Phillip Jeffrey
Comcast added two special Olympic channels in the HD section--one for basketball and one for soccer. There is also Universal HD which has some coverage, USA Network, Oxygen, CNBC and MSNBC, and Telemundo. I'd spin around to see if you can find anything live at the moment (I think there is a basketball game on now). - Andrew Leyden
Have you tried nbcolympics.com? I know they are having some events live. Personally I don't have a problem with the delay. With a choice of the races being broadcast live but not seeing them and being able to see the delay I'll take the delay. - ChiliMac
Here is a good list of what is on (all times EDT) across all the networks http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv... - Andrew Leyden
If you want live, unfortunetly the only way is through the web. And they are raw feeds using MS Silverlight. So if your willing to deal with that you can get all of the events in a pop-up window on your computer. : | - Bluesun 2600 from twhirl
On the West coast in .au we are use to 2hr delay for most sporting events, but not the Olympics. Appears to be live at, least on SBS the "complementary" broadcaster, time to settle down for 3 hours of the womens cycling road race. - Nick Cowie
whenever the olympics take place on the other side of the world most events aren't shown live. This is not about broadcasting the olympics as a public service. It's about NBC making their money back. You do understand the relationship between ad rates and prime-time, right? The Internet takes away any suspense about the olympics when they are held on the other side of the world. You ain't gonna get live from NBC. Too much money at risk. - Dave Madison
part of the coverage is live at least on the east coast. there has been some effort to schedule a few important US events in the morning a la Phelps so that they can be seen live on primetime - Ted
Adding insult to injury, my rather capable PowerPC Mac can't even access the Olympics on nbcolympics.com. It's using an Intel-only version of Silverlight. Trying CBC and other foreign networks online all reject me because of my American IP, and I haven't found a successful proxy server that'll let me stream. - Kevin Hessel
loving nbc's use of silverlight working awesome on the macbook pro - adolfo foronda
The BBC have just had to put a bucket into the Olympics studio in Beijing as the roof is leaking! - Rich
@Kevin Hessel: Thanks for pointing that out. Now I'm not happy with NBC either. - ChiliMac
try watching CBC channel 99 on Comcast. I just watched USA creamed China in basketball, live. - ~C4Chaos
NBC focuses too much on the #olympics drama rather than live coverage. bball on primetime? USA already creamed China - http://bit.ly/1cQyX2 - ~C4Chaos
yeah - accesine
NBC sucks. I started a public email protest here: http://n2.nabble.com/NBC-Oly... - please help to spread the word. If more people work together to get their message to NBC, they will have to act. Blogging and commenting like this are just too scattered and too easy for NBC to ignore. - weizpub

Bill Belichick Sex Tape --- please god no - http://www.mahalo.com/Bill_Be...
so wrong, by which i mean hilarious - Eric Eldon
Yuck! I mean seriously, who wants to see Belichick doing this. - Michelle Martinez
If only he would have put this much effort into coaching the Browns, they might have had more winning seasons! - River
Well said, Carol! LOL - StephenTorrence

Checking out the new version of http://delicious.com/ the new design is a lot tighter, neater, and more polished looking
I already miss the old one :( - directeur from NoiseRiver
I, for one, don't miss the pointless disruptive periods - d.e.l.i.c.i.o.u.s. - Danielle
I second Danielle. - Annette Schulte
I like the periods! I'll always remember where the periods go! De.liciou.s! Wait, dangit. I forgot already. - Rishabh Mishra (p248)
I liked the periods, too. - Kamilah Gill
I am not talking about the domain name, but the design, and the delicious.com domain was usuable even before today - directeur from NoiseRiver
I always called it "del dot icky-o dot us" - Jake (aka Jawee)
Much better without the periods. See here: http://friendfeed.com/e... One of the comments says that anytime you need to work on pronouncing your brand name, you are in trouble. - Roberto Bonini
password reminder doesn't work :( - anna sauce
I like the new layout. It's got me using it again (for now, at least). Re: what Roberto said about pronouncing brand names - I get this fairly often amongst the on-hold audio messages I produce, where the voice artist has to waste time spelling out the web address, having already spoken the name as it sounds. Not good on the ear. - Bob Kingsley
@Bob: Yeah it is a wee bit irritating. TWIP podcast has to spell out cachefly.com because they sponsor the show. Scott Hanselman's Hanselminutes does the same thing for Teleirik and Devlious. - Roberto Bonini
well it's about time - Andy Sternberg
I like it...I was cleaning up my tags last night and saw the notice. It's looking good. I know Josh just left...his influence or Yahoo? - Neal Jansons from twhirl
Long overdue (not like they haven't been a little distracted :) - Charlie Anzman
Chris Brogan
Crap. I hate when I comment WHILE watching a video, and then have to re-play. Especially when it's Scoble, because hey, it's a LONG video. : ) David Allen vid was great, Robert.
