Apparently Google Drive isn't everywhere I want to be; it's not "ready for my account" yet. Is it really that hard for Google to make this available for everyone who wants it right away? How many people are trying to do this on opening

I strongly believe that the rules or maxims presented here have too many exceptions. There's a lot of weak arguments to support a weak thesis. I remember Amazon.com being condemned for having a weird and confusing name. Ultimately, those

Bullshit. I presume Zuckerberg is making these claims to remove the board members -- many of whom also happened to be Istagram investors -- from any suspicion of wrongdoing. But clearly the price jump just prior to Facebook's acquisition

I wish this were the top comment. The idea of Google indexing my harddrive and using this data to better profile me has scary privacy implications. I will pay these services (gmail, etc.) I can opt out of Google viewing my data.

So it's last.fm for books? How it that a social graph? I don't mean to discount this data entirely, but what some reads (or what music someone listens too) is not anywhere a comprehensive picture of a user; for this reason, niche "social"
