Very interesting read. They seem pretty savvy. It's got to be a concern to them that Facebook has done all of the things they brainstormed in the "how would Facebook kill us" meeting. I wonder what their "how would Facebook kill us" meeting

Though I can't recall where I read it, I recall reading another source that claimed that teenagers and tweens did not use twitter but instead were more enamored with direct texting. It would be worth someone actually doing a study of this.

Especially true when you scroll to the very bottom and the end result is Audio and DVD not working.

You mention in the blog that the changelog for the v2.0 release would be huge and so you didn't provide one. I'm assuming there are numerous behind the scenes tweaks and improvements, but are there any up front, noticeable features that are

Probably the most glaringly bizarre and horrible example is the lack of Mint.com in Canada. This is strange and aggravating for two main reasons. Firstly because Mint.com has been around since 2006, which is a very, very long time in intern

It makes sense. For some evolutionary reason our brains find many peculiar tasks to be very satisfying and in order to "find the fun" games are designed to tap into those. For example there are a huge amount of "organizing" games, such as T

Cog http://cogx.org/ is a nice reaaaaal simple MP3 player for OS X. I use it for whenever I want to just play one or two tracks from MP3 blogs without adding anything to my large, unwieldy, iTunes Library.

There's also Songbird http://getsongbird.com/ which though early and a bit bloaty has a interesting featureset over iTunes.

Wow. Yeah this seems like a staggeringly bad design. Perhaps now that it's so obvious that the huge majority of apps are games Apple will put more thought into how to make the next iteration of the iPhone into a more capable gaming device.

Really? In the course of about a month and a half Facebook has caught up on nearly every single feature that makes Twitter distinct and interesting. I haven't seen a compelling reason to think that they won't be able to finish the job and g

Facebook seems like it's capable of everything that twitter does, and more, and easier. It's just a matter of making it open and accessible and making it so that people actually make use of the features. It seems like they're on the right t

The video game industry is great in my opinion, but then again, I work at a startup instead of at a monolithic corporation with over a thousand other employees. Probably anyone working at a company that large would get burnt out, regardless

"I don’t have to worry about shortening URLs, and I don’t need some Adobe Air client just to make it tolerable." This quote sums up the argument between the two services pretty well. Posterous seems like an interesting middle ground between

streaming NHL games for me but same concept :). I feel bad for all the brits at my work that are probably dying to see good soccer on the TV and can't find any. They'd probably love a streaming sports site as well.

I'd certainly pay for an iTuneslike service for impulse buying old magazines in a digital format. I love magazines but they're rarely justifiably keepable as they accumulate and create a terrible clutter. Unfortunately for the majority of u

Well what would happen to all the aggregators during this month if they had no one to link to? Would they have to buy newspapers and hand type their entries to get their content?

The approach of the AP here will be interesting to watch. I think there does need to be some more balance between the content creators and those that do nothing but have popular RSS feeds.
