If we're talking about business networking, I thought LinkedIn was the winner. MySpace and Facebook are both "social networking" in my book, Facebook even moreso, because I only friend people I actually know (However this could be just beca

"Facebook on the other hand is the leader in the US, Canada and UK." This statement isn't true. Like it or not, MySpace is the leader in the US.

Thanks for that link, that was very informative. I think that the point Iacobucci makes about vertical vs. horizontal was very interesting. Not sure how I feel about that.

> I guess with the iPhone a lot of the customers are first time apple customers, so they don't know how the system works. I think this is exactly the problem they had with dropping the price of the iPhone. That and the fact it's been on

Wow, you think that all the contributes of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation are "useless or harmful"? ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_and_Melinda_Gates_Foundati... ) I would not consider giving my money back to do things like eradi

I have two differing thoughts about this. On one hand, I see it as a tactic to make the iPhone appear more affordable for Christmas. "Wow, 400 bucks is nothing compared to 600 bucks". On the other hand, it will alienate the people who did b

They have (or had, not sure if it's still there) something called a badge that you can put on your site. I don't think it varies based on someone logged into facebook (don't really see this as possible, since my site cannot access FB cookie

I particularly like the "neighbors" feature, which shows you people who have similar tastes as you. You can then see what they're listening to that you aren't. Also PureVolume ( http://purevolume.com ) is excellent for listening to independ

When did you graduate from UCSB? I'm a fourth year Gaucho and the naming is exactly as the article describes. I haven't seen anyone play "Beer Pong" as you describe (although it was featured in Beer Fest).

Yeah, I was just testing this out with my housemates. There's three of us, so this eliminated one check but causes me to write a huge check that I don't have the money for. Interesting nonetheless.

Haha, same with me, I was in a hurry posting my reply while... at my job. It's ok though, I was compiling.

Manager Tools (a business podcast) has a very good podcast about this for those interested: http://www.manager-tools.com/2006/09/meal-etiquette-part-1-o... I know it may appear boring, but they're actually really good and I listen to them

Pretty nifty, I must have missed the initial post. Now I have something to motivate me to workout daily. And something to haunt me when I consider marking my alcohol intake (in this case, you don't want to start a chain).

I've had the same experience with taking a bath. Just forgetting about the problem (weather it is a bath or pee) seems to help.

I find that I can get good recommendations by asking intelligent questions. Also, it never hurts to visit a professor in office hours to discuss an aspect of the class. It doesn't have to be a question of understanding, but if you show inte

I disagree with both of his points. For the first, it is convenient to automatically search for all of your aim buddies instead of having to do so manually. Of course I'd only do this on a site that I trust (Facebook is one example). It ad
