This tool is part of a much larger machine that may actually affect society more than it serves it.

I don't think he's saying that at all. The insanity is trying to construct a platform that manifests a person's entire social life. I think there's a harsh combination of conflating business interests and disinterested, contrived people sor

I hate to flip the script on social networking, but I think google is doing a pretty good job with focusing on exploration and compartmentalization of friends and social groups in +. Maybe something like graph search is their eventual inten

Goodbye Facebook.

They've always been actively mining your likes and check-ins. The disincentive hasn't been evident until now that they've made it very transparent.

Barring my paranoid trepidation of facebook conflating people's social identities with business interests. I'm still very doubtful of this being successful. I think a lot of exciting internet utilities that come out of silicon valley have a

I don't think content providers are interested in providing services for users who won't pay.

This movie sucked. Don't care.

Did you see the entire movie? The whole premise is that a Japanese businessman is implanting a virus like visual into everyone's heads..

Looper proved that you could successfully harvest the story/character beats, and cool moments from other films and shows without creating any of your own. It's a bad sign when all of the "original" films in hollywood are just mediocre remak

Agree with all of it. Especially Dark Knight Rises. It was so bad that it reflected badly on the previous two films. I realized at the end of Rises how poor the character development was throughout Dark Knight, and getting (re)confused abou

Life of Pi. No contest the best movie of 2012. I saw pretty much every release, and this is one of the few that left a significant impact on me.

I recently started using a Nexus 7. It's such an incredible little device. I think Apple and Microsoft should be worried about the potent mix of Android software and great hardware.

Did you not even bother to read the title of the article?

I think it's worth considering that Apple was particularly adept at developing the products that have flourished for the past 6 years. You can't definitely say who will be the best able to bring the next big thing.

It's really frustrating to see how often they're described as the same thing. Whenever there's just one (or a couple of) issues that diverge from someone's personal opinion, they completely disregard all of the differences. I can accept tha

Now imagine a whole generation socializing under these artificial restrictions. Can you imagine how stifling being raised under an umbrella of constant surveillance by your peer group, family, future employers and advertisers would be to yo

Facebook is possibly the most dangerous social construct created. And no, it's not because privacy or information are too sacred to be utilized, but because personal identity is so easily perverted with market, institutional, societal inter

Then why the other three options? Why not just "I don't know this person" or "Ignore this message"?

So is facebook meant to be a service for your close friends and family or a broader social network that promotes businesses, news, celebrities; a wider discussion? If it wants to be both, there are only cons. You can't conflate personal rel

Coming to this conclusion on acid is much more gripping and powerful than while watching star trek.

To be fair, Minority report uses a really lame one hand approaching another zoom which obviously wouldn't work for a touchscreen device.

Off topic, but can you add the ability to check off completed videos instead of having to watch them within the website? I usually play KA videos at 1.5x or 2.0x on youtube, but then I don't receive any points :( Thanks for everything by th

He's saying that there is never that "Ah-Ha!" moment in Fitzgerald's writings which deliver a clear message to the reader. I kind of agree, whenever he gets close to a statement which appeals to me personally or begins to develop an interes
