To me it's the best scifi series ever, I'm very young (24) though :-)

Hey Paul,
thanks for your feedback.

When I first saw it (I think it was Adam's idea) I've found it kind of strange too, but you know what: I'm currently starting to like it and I don't even know exactly why.

But after all we do it to evangelize Google Reader and RSS in general.

Hi Marcel.

Interessanter Post. Derzeit versuche ich aus den aggregierten Daten Schlüsse zu ziehen um über die nächsten Wochen/Monate daraus einen brauchbaren News-Aggregator zu bauen.
(Meiner Meinung nach könnte die News-Filterung durch den Google Reader einfach besser funktionieren als durch eine überaktive Community wie Digg sie hat.)

Der Grund für den opt-in sind zunächst ganz einfach Skalierungsbedenken. Grundsätzlich sollte es jedoch machbar sein an alle Linkblogs ranzukommen. Derzeit plagen mich aber eher Sprachenprobleme...

Grüße aus Österreich,
Alex

It's not about the first release of an Apollo App at all (I did some myself). It's about what's the first real app (except demos) coming from Adobe itself.

@rocksane:

got your point. The most important things will definetly be to find out a good way to present the data that is coming. But first I'm focusing on getting as many linkblogs as possible and making the feed updater work ...

@jan

on my feedback blog ( http://readburner.wordpress.com/ ) others have requested similar features. Seems like this something people really want...

@Aviv

Privacy concerns are sometimes much overhyped.

We are listening too much to some "important" people that cry out because they're on Google Street view but at the same time have uploaded tons of photos to flickr.

Remember the discussion around Facebook's beacon "issue", then check this out:

Downloading something from Microsoft... no way!

Last time I installed SQL Server and it screwed up my entire system...

Re: Blogging is back…

I used to read your blog posts regularly, but I just don't have the time to play around with Twitter and FriendFeed all day. To me there everything is just too cluttered and way too much bullshit.

I love simple things and a blog is a fairly simple thing that already makes sense to hundreds of million people. Also I love the way how a blog is not realtime but totally asynchronous and I can read it whenever I have time.

So if you wanna reach Mainstreet and not Geekstreet than my advise is to restart blogging.
