Thanks for the additional context, definitely helps paint a better picture of the situation. The money quote for me was this: Maeda has been President of the University since 2008, when he took over the position from Roger Mandle — the lon

Hmm interesting, I tried to play as I would against a human and got some interesting results. Over 20 games I end up tied in wins/loses with the untrained version plus greater than half straight ties. It seemed I should be able to add one m

They actually did exactly that. They didn't do a hard de-list for JCPenny as in the bmw.de case, only a tweak to the link weighting to remove the type of bogus link JCPenny was benefiting from. So they've dropped down 30-50+ positions in a

My old bookmarklets still work and the old site still seems to work fine ( http://lab.arc90.com/experiments/readability/ ). It would be pretty foolish of them to break everyone's existing endpoints like that.

Thanks for clarifying :) I don't know that I agree with the refund strategy as the way to handle the issue but it's good to hear you guys come down in a good place ethically/morally on the issue (as you say, the most important thing with th

This the ft.com article you're referencing? http://const.it/dewall/http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/2437643c-29... (link bypasses the paywall) I personally prefer the economist article. I read it back in 06 and I've read a few more on the Ikea t

You say "100% of claimed Tips". How much initiative do you take to inform publishers that they've received a tip and should sign-up and claim their money? What do you do if a publisher who has received tips declines participating? The idea

Hmm interesting to see Arc90 making a bigger move in the space, especially partnered up with Instapaper. I've been curious why they hadn't done much more since the simple readability bookmarklet was so well received. I wonder if they'll run

I'm always a bit surprised this doesn't some up more often in these discussions. I used to use little serial GSM/GPRS modems anytime I needed to handle SMS, and that was while working for a voip company with lots of infrastructure in place

Speaking as a donor who isn't considering "subscribing", others probably felt as I did, that we were donating to help out the reddit team rather than Conde Nast. I have no interest in paying for reddit on a regular basis and cannot imagine

CTR: 1.5% including content network (2.5% search only) I'm being a bit cheap recently and staying around 3rd or 4th position (avg CPC $0.30-$0.60). With adwords I focus on ad quality and click through rate over all else, the better you perf
