hey guys, i had spoken with anoop early on (i started graffitigeo.com with a few of my college friends). i'll do a detailed response shortly, but anoop and i spoke on the phone today and we've both agreed that there were no ill intentions.

oh boy, shameless plug time! yelp is a great desktop experience, but if you've got an iphone give graffiti a shot: http://www.graffitigeo.com . it's a bit more fun to use than urbanspoon and goodrec with the mobs and badges. no registra

i would challenge the average hacker to step back and think about this. mark zuckerberg was a fan of perl (not the most attractive language, but hey it gets the job done). facebook still operates on php. do a waybackmachine search on face

if i had to choose, i'd go with linode just because i like the founders so much. this is a great step for them to be taking.

the hardware is still slow--the 3gs is nicer in terms of speed, but today's cell phones still feel a bit like operating a computer back in the early 90s. there are still plenty of crashes and delays. absolutely right though, telecoms are g

i see this thread as less news-driven, and more commemorative (that's why i did not submit it with the title "Michael Jackson Dies"). you have to admit, as strange as he could seem sometimes, he did make some major contributions to the mus
