You can talk about your own products and services, and disparage others’; in other words, it is a spammers’ paradise. Same argument was used against Wikipedia back in the day.

There's a difference between writing with the sole aim of getting it out first (so that TechMeme gets you first or you get the most retweets) and writing a good analysis of a story. That's why, imho, blogs can never replace real publication

At least that’s the theory. In reality I think this site has about a snowflake’s chance in the white hot cauldron of a collapsing star, and it’ll probably be overwhelmed by porn merchants faster than you can say “charge for online video.”

There's a Quora topic page with fascinating detail on the subject. It was made more specifically to answer how Mark still controls 26% of the company. http://www.quora.com/How-did-Mark-Zuckerberg-retain-26-of-eq...

Quora's relevance and absolute focus on completely revolutionizing the Q&A sector is fascinating. They've done so many innovations in that space. Counting that as an innovation to blogging seems too far-fetched...

I don't understand why we can't apply what he seems to suggest (treating governments and politics in a smart efficient manner) without navigating the high seas and creating new land. That's just giving up on all the land we already have. Th

More than anything, I'm just impressed that this made it to the 50+ campuses without the tech world having any clue. edit: ...and I'm in college. I wonder if this says anything about me :P

I'm in the same boat, mate. I'm a Junior majoring in Computer Science and Engineering. Lately, I've been getting more and more frustrated at my complete lack of time that I can devote to doing what I actually care about: starting up TextMat

The actual code doesn't matter. It's the tens of thousands of man hours that have been spent creating one of the best indexes with careful tags for millions of pages. The data's what makes Delicious matter. And, if you open-source the data,

Any idea on how much money Yahoo's actually losing by just running Delicious? Side note: I've always wondered why Yahoo hasn't tapped into the vast amount of good data that is Delicious to supplement and improve their search engine? Talk ab

Please consider getting a partner in the United States to both print and distribute these here as well. I'd love to order, but the UK postage costs will slowly get outrageous.

I'm largely talking about where I see Facebook going, rather than just this specific update. Overall, I think the Twitter-like feature updates have been numerous and obvious.

Favorite part: "And we're proud of the fact that we don't load Optimus 7 with a lot of "LG apps" or a fancy animated UI which gets old in a few weeks. :-) " Nice little jab at HTC there.

...and just like that, Facebook revamps profile to add Twitter-like sharing, MySpace-like focus on pictures and media, and LinkedIn-like employment, education, and projects details. This is brilliant. It's good ole Facebook with Twitter + L

It's sad that to this day not enough Israelis/Egyptians take advantage of the peace accords provisions and travel to the other country. Little known fact: Israelis can enter the Sinai with just personal id and no visa. Same goes for Egyptia

I'm Egyptian. One of my absolutely favorite parts of Egypt is Nuweba (North of Dahab, South of Taba) in the Sinai. You stand in the Gulf of Aqaba and just a few hundred meters in front of you is the coast of Saudi Arabia. To the Northeast,

Let's not address this problem prematurely. This will likely simply fizzle out after awhile. If it doesn't, then we can discuss it and see what solutions are out there. But for now, no damage has been done and the "Offer HN" threads have be

I think the top problem with Digg is that the biggest founder, Kevin Rose, simply has no incentive to follow through and give Digg a good exit. His shares in Digg are too diluted and he's too heavily-invested outside of Digg for that to eve

I really detest his writing. Daniel Lyons writes about technology as an expert explaining the tech world to a common non-techie. The problem is that he explains things in a way that don't make sense, are false, or in this case just a bunch

Haha. One of my favorites is how Mike Arrington does. According to an interview, he'd keep working until he passed out :) Even when you think you're tired, you always have more juice in you, especially when you're young.

Even if you can't fully learn to code, having a non-technical founder who understands the basics of programming is an amazing advantage.
