Good talk, though I've heard/read most of the points already. Perhaps the vocal and receptive audience made it more entertaining and grounded in reality or something.

It would be nice to be able to make a single line-break (i.e. a <br>) at the end of an existing line, rather than have to have always use a <p>

Kind of interesting. His criticisms of Google are not unreasonable [1], but it's just bluster until he gives a clue about his approach. 1. 'PageRank wrecked the web' http://www.skrenta.com/2007/12/pagerank_wrecked_the_web_3.ht... (fun in

I learnt PHP, albeit briefly, before I found Python. The things that quickly and totally converted me, in a few words: elegance, efficiency, pragmatism, fun, style, community, libraries (not necessarily in that order).

[ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nU8DcBF-qo4 ] Its a good talk, though maybe should be called "theorizing from massive amounts of data". Makes you wonder what Google are keeping under wraps for now, and how the powerset approach can compete

I was suprised to see the photographer and most of the flickr commenters have a similar attitude to copyright as the MPAA and RIAA, often using the same arguements and language, and instinct for legal action. I had kinda assumed that sort o

There is an accelerating flood of niche social news sites; it seems more likely to me that in a few years there will be a huge number of these kind of sites (and many platforms to let you make your own), which in aggregate will probably fol

Very cool. Interesting to see social voting explicitly described and implemented as a game, I'm curious how spending/gambling points and leveling works out. Though if it takes off, I imagine you'll have your hands full with gaming/spamming
