That is one crazy lede: If you have an iPhone, you may be reading this with an app. A newspaper? Made of paper? Go and suck an arrow and protest against feudalism by dying of plague, Luddite.

Great post. I've been relying on heatmapping tools like Crazy Egg to answer some of those questions about where users are clicking. There are some definite limitations though; it seems like GA might fill those gaps nicely - for free.

I don't think the analogy holds. As Bruce Schneier has pointed out in recent days, it is not that we're complaining about locking down systems in ways that make sense. I've started to call the bizarre new TSA rules "magical thinking": if w

I agree that we shouldn't try to regulate the author's business plan into viability, but at some point, and Google has to be close to that point in search and cpc advertising, antitrust questions come into play.

I think the author of the blog post misinterpreted the lyric in number three. It isn't Jay-Z talking about himself. So it's not really contradictory: The first verse is rumored to be about Jaz-O, his former mentor and business partner, or
