This is very interesting to me and my work on tracking health issues and pop culture on social media. I'll email you to see if someone else hasn't already gotten to it first!

Doesn't that just mean that the first (#10) article got more upvotes/comments than the other (#11) recently (AKA velocity)

Any info or thoughts about supporting Green Button exports?

You're probably best off writing your own software so you can diagnose issues as they arise.. but I had people use http://sharedcount.com/documentation.php at my employer before we wrote our own processes to do it for us

Agreed. I've moved my projects to reserved instances

Super bummer. Am one of a few mac users at work and we have VPN software that requires use of 10.6 :(

This is good news - thanks guys. I tried www.recon.io out for my project a few months ago and it was great but I think my trial expired or something. Going to take a look at it again and take advantage of the startup plan. Cheers, @Skram of

I use FastMail for my personal domain name and would recommend it for personal or business use. They continue to improve the UX and post occasional techie blog posts. I've been happy with them for many years.

I feel like this is a question I ask myself with every FB app I "connect" with. You never really know what they're actually doing with your data unless you read all their policies and that's just what they _say_ they're going to do.

If you can edit the title, it'd be better as "Wolfram Alpha updates their Personal Analytics for Facebook" or something since it is indeed an update and not totally new.

I'm surprised people haven't done this before but that leads to my main question for you: what's the business plan/how will this service support itself?

Too bad Pandora hasn't done a data dump. What about piggy backing off Wikipedia (which you ca download) or IMDB for seeing connections

Still considering doing this?

Is there a specific type of data or industry you're interested in? There's a ton of government data floating around, a lot of which is located at http://data.gov/ Some other sites to look into: kaggle.com, http://www.healthmetricsandeval

I totally agree with MarkR42 and was thinking the same thing when I had your question, OP. My main conclusion became server side processing is the black box at least in my case where the value add is through the REST APIs the javascript wor

Pretty cool - good work! I've been working with similar data and trying to find good ways of displaying it. Would be very interested in seeing the source on Github if you still plan to release it. Are you using Twitter's `place` attributes

Agreed. I'd use this in an instant if it would read from my Mac Address Book which syncs w/ iCloud and all my devices (as well as corporate Exchange server)

+1 for this. Would be interested in seeing how this is done in code to further my understanding of MongoDB. Would be interesting to create a reverse translator as well.

As a developer-type, I'd pick an ecommerce solution like Shopify.com which has plugins like this one ( http://apps.shopify.com/product-customizer ) which you could either pay for or recreate yourself. I think most ecommerce sites will have

Like an interactive wizard to customize products/orders such as size, color, shipping speed, etc.?

Ah - based on Chrome Web Inspector console, looks like it's trying to load http://192.168.2.99:3000 which surely doesn't exist on my network.

Is it currently working? I tried a simple URL (below) and it's said "Loading" for quite a while: https://www.google.com/search?q=test Looks interesting though!

Nice post, but how is this different from machine learning? It's not like the code is rewriting itself; it's the data in the data store which is being used to find better models for the problem. Or am I wrong?

I'd definitely suggest trying to find a team ahead of time. The events that I've been to have always had several people without a team but it isn't until the event gets going that people start talking and working together. I think most org

Take a look at http://www.rackspace.com/apps/email_hosting/rackspace_email/ . I have a client I do freelancing for on there and they have great support and a pretty good control panel for both you and your users. Ability to do a hybrid se

I've attended events which were hackathons in nature but called a "tinkerathon" and the more obvious "codeathon".

Fair enough and good luck in the space!

Is there a reason you're writing another daemon? Have you seen http://fluentd.org/ which seems to already have packages for many OSes as well as plugins.
