+1 Also think we are shooting a bit behind the bird to try to make current/future value conclusions on any present data as the value of a degree relative to other options is changing so rapidly.

Good point, I would guess it is lower than 50% of total (irrespective of active vs. not active). Not sure where you sourced your GR data but maybe the ratios of GR/uniques across a few different types of sites to find out if GR ratios varie

Not sure CNN is good proxy for RSS - many folks not using RSS for CNN because they get CNN via Twitter etc or visit it x times/day anyways? Seems like much (half?) of RSS market is folks monitoring streams of websites that they don't visit

Insane determination when you are building a dream does not always map into insane determination when [whatever you are asked to do in big company]. Consider that many entrepreneurs grow out of even their own company - their own baby - when

Nice post. Two more items that I like to mix into 1:1 agendas, not necessarily every meeting though: 1. What do you need from me (as your manager) to accomplish the top objectives? 2. What do you need from me for your personal dev and grow

Nothing wrong with stats. They are what they are. Problem is when we then apply them to individuals. Then we are unfairly stereotyping the individual.

One strategy: 1. Examine your top (most engaged) x users each month 2. Quantify turnover in that group 3. Qualify which features/content they are using more/less than quantify more/less 4. Evaluate (3) against your business model - are your

Like many of the points but not following the conclusions because Google Reader doesn't aid long tail discovery...was just best place to subscribe post-discovery. If the need for RSS reader remains, then others will simply fill the GR niche

The law of any overly generalized and overly complex law: the law is no good. Don't try to repair it. Rip it out and establish clear, concise, use-case specific laws, when necessary.

if not there already, we should put up quick poll of top x Google Reader alternatives that everyone can vote on (put it on Google Docs to add a bit of irony) w/ a light column for use case (which OS, browsers, etc). every blog publisher the

It is foregone conclusion that G+ will add the subscriptions in some manner? Agree Reader exit still creates a nice niche for others to fill since even if G+ is the goal not all folks will go G+ if there are more focused alternatives.

Access duopolies are the problem and have nothing to do with core network tech. Give us multiple access pipe options (IP access of course) and the telcos can do whatever they feel like in their cores (and most already use IP cores). This i

We each have 20k different genes and infinite combinations of genetics, environment, behavior etc. But the good news is everything is binary - it is all either good or bad - for all of us.

Your answer is different than my answer. We have 7B different answers if every combo of genes is different. Have to start somewhere, so this study helps, but 6 hours versus 10 hours for small sample size is only a starting point.

Just detect IE users and prompt them to download a plug-in. Meanwhile, voice and video enable [your app] for the other 70% of your users. Can argue that WebRTC is not really about universal calling regardless...and yet still a game-changer:

The server architecture is nice but my favorite part is the simple signaling protocol, as opposed to SIP or any other overly complex (for this use case) telephony signaling protocol. Nice work.
