I was just thinking about how awesome it would be to have a Command-Control-D for real life. Reading books sucks without it.

Why not? I can have a personal conversation with someone else verbally over the air, but I can't have a personal conversation with someone else over bits?

I think Facebook apps are Web 2.5. Web 3.0 might be the meshing of the interactiveness of Web 2.0 with premium content that goes beyond YouTube. Think Joost, only evolved beyond crap video. Web 3.0 might be content designed and built for th

When I use MSN, I'm sending data to the other person through the Microsoft tunnel; if they clone the data while it's going through the tunnel and save it for their own use, that's kind of a breach of my trust. I don't expect them to NOT do

How anonymous can your own voice be? Not very much, I don't think. A checkbox on a survey can be anonymous, but my communication with other people would be impossible to record "anonymously." Remember all that flack Netflix got for releasin

Is this the future of advertising on justin.tv? If it is (assuming they don't overdo it), I'm totally for it. I actually kind of want to see that movie now. Entertainment + Advertisement very rarely go together, but Justin.TV seems to have

Hmm. So I was using the iPhone version of News.YC by the Buxfer guys, and when I went to submit the comment, the iPhone didn't seem to register the click. I kept tapping it, wondering if I missed the button with my finger, then turned the i

Wow, this is interesting. I'd like to learn more about their process, but considering how secetive hey are, I'm surprised we learned his much. These processes seem pretty obvious for success, though, so I'm not surprised they make 10 comps

Yeah, @dcurtis. Recently, I've become addicted.

I like it, but comment replying isn't working ("A network error occurred. Please refresh before continuing."). The only thing I would suggest is that you make the hot spot on the comment smaller (only the top, maybe), because when I drag my

I can see the reason for footnotes on a long post for meta information, but why do you use them in your little messages? Why not just explain what's in the footnote when you first mention it? Not an attack, just a friendly question. I've no

Reminds me of my favorite quotation: Most people make the mistake of thinking design is what it looks like. People think it’s this veneer — that the designers are handed this box and told, ‘Make it look good!’ That’s not what we think desig

Because Michael Arrington is in love with Paul Graham. It's a secret affair, of course.

Oh. Well that's far less damaging that I was expecting. So far, no influx of techcrunch commenters, that I can see. Thanks for sharing.

Regarding the office stuff, that might be true for you, but I can't seem to get anything done in complete silence. I think best with airplanes flying overhead, people screaming at taxis outside, and phones ringing off the hook.

The mighty mouse only has one "button," but uses software to create the second click based on a sensor. I guess that's just another example of just how much Steve Jobs hates buttons. Also, not including the keyboard, the MacBook Pro has 3 b

I want to vote this up twice. Fortune has had some great articles lately, and this is definitely one of them.

It's actually quite beautiful-- his pictures are just really terrible.

I read this entire article, and thought it was fascinating. Fluff or not, at least it's quality.

This is absurd and stupid. But entertaining as hell to watch in fast forward.

Hopefully in 6 months, there will be a bigger upgrade, with form factor changes. That will be a good time to buy.
