in A River of TWiT on LOL: Life of Leo
It definitely sounds interesting, although, as others pointed out, it is prone to spam and to flooding (but again, it will be called *river* for a reason, right?).

Personally, I'm not a big fan of real-time streams, mostly because I think they are difficult to follow and therefore difficult to be really useful in the long term. While a live stream of this kind would definitely be amusing to look at, it won't be as useful as, say, a combination of del.icio.us and twitter.

A middle-tier of moderation could be a solution, but it's difficult to foresee how viable this might be: you'd need quite a lot of people checking the strem in real time, *all the time*. Maybe Twit fans can do that though, it's hard to tell at thi stage.

Another problem would be content duplication: you really don't want people to suggest the same damn link 5 times every time, right?
StackOverflow encountered a similar problem: when a question was posted, it literally took a couple of minutes or less for the fast person to post an answer. Meanwhile, another 5 users may have been busy writing exactly the same answer: this resulted in frequent duplication.

For some ideas on how to solve this problem, have a look at the StackOverflow blog: http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2008/10/solving-t...

Anyhow, hope it works out, one way or the other!

in Firefox 3: History on dria
Thanks for the recap. Personally, the AwesomeBar truly stands out from competition (namely Opera), as I pointed out myselt (http://www.h3rald.com/blog/thoughts-on-firefox3...).
Overall, Firefox 3 is much, much more usable, fast and "smart" than its predecessor.

Kudos to you, the Dev Team and the whole community!

in TODO: design a better todo on Polimath
Well, for me it's quite simple:\n\nTodoist (http://todoist.com/) is the best *online* todo list and Tudumo (http://www.tudumo.com) is the best *offline* one. Both free (for now, at least), both simple and both really slick and neat.
