in Andreessen: MSFT did us a favour on Mathew's comments
It is in perspective. I never said it's equivalent, so don't get sidetracked on that point.

It's just the thinking of "Oh well, at least it's one company/person controlling the market now. At least we don't have all this pesky competition confusing people..." that I have real trouble agreeing with.

mathewi Well, if it's not equivalent then why make the comparison? As for the thinking about Microsoft, I'm talking about in the very early days of personal computing -- when DOS became the standard and that made it easier for companies to roll out things that built on top of that. I'm not talking about controlling a market or stamping out competition.

Yeah, it's thinking like this that gets dictators into power.

(and I'm actually one of the few people I know who has no ideological problems with Vista)

mathewi Oh come on, Slava. It's an operating system, for cripes sake -- not
the fate of the free world, or democracy, or anything like that.
Let's try and keep things in perspective, shall we?

in PodCamp email taken out of context… on Scobleizer
While I agree that the Google Groups discussing should have been conducted in a more private venue, it seems the blogger you linked does not have any relationship with the event other than being an attendee (although I might be wrong on that one). The organizers who participated in that planning session, however, seem to have nothing but respect for you and your work.

Don't hold back Robert, tell us how you really feel!

Anyway, I don't see what's really out of context here (now that Mark Cuban thing, THAT was out of context). It seems that that blogger that you linked came across a newsgroup where the PodCamp organizers were discussing their plans, including your invitation... and as far as I can tell, they were willing to cover your expenses and find you a nice place to stay.

However, this Podcast NYC guy (who might not even be directly associated with PodCamp) is the one who took the quote out of their discussion and wrote that ridiculous post, so why don't you be mad at him instead.

in Google and Orwell? Come on, people on Mathew's comments
Hehe, clearly Karp is trying to game memeorandum with these childish hysterics... either that or he's a total nut if the fact that Google is blocking the kind of sites that ruin search results for all of us is "keeping him awake at night"

Scott, don't let the bedbugs bite.
