DISQUS

It came as no surprise to me that the feed scribs has plunged down to 455 [via Jake on twitter]. I might be wrong in my thinking but somehow I believe it has to with the diversity of the content.

A think-tank(that's what you guys call it) cannot only contain a very skewed set of opinions with a limited authority (which is the case here). There has to be a wider participation from people who would bring new ideas, to the platform and maintain the diversity of post and thereby uphold the reader's interest in them.

I understand that this is private to you people but what is the harm in at least having guest articles/post from other contributors.

Just a thought.

This is unfair and ridiculous...we miss all the action and opportunities ( including of-course the t-shirts)such as these while being here in India :(. Is it why they call it the third-world.
Unfortunate,

- How about some demographic data ? (not sure if location information is available in mix db..)

- No. of ideas with at least 1 comment or more than '2 want it' votes ? (2 according to me is an optimum no. for deciding if the idea has potential)

- Most popular tags ? (couldn't find the tag cloud on mix)

Arom Barthol (http://www.datenform.de/are-you-social-eng.html) has a perfect t-shirt designed for a web and blogging conference and other such occasions. Though I may never get a chance to wear anything like this in near future. But this certainly has polarizing looks.

Just like Benjamin Franklin once replied while defending his invention "what's the use of a new born baby?", every new idea when born need to be nurtured and given time to grow up, because as they say 'an idea can change the world' !!
