in Dual-class stock = enlightened dictatorship on Mathew's comments
I had similar thoughts - didn't express it as well as "dictatorship", but I think the "commitments" that Andreessen pre-supposes would be totally un-enforceable.

in Six Examples of the Long Take | 20bits on 20bits
The opening of the "The Player" was a famous Altman homage to the long take from "Touch of Evil", which is mentioned during the dialogue.

in Microsoft’s search a lot better than it used to be on Scobleizer
Are you kidding me? Live.com is still wide open for spammers. It's easy to manipulate.

Look at the search result for [cheap fares]. It's full of bogus affiliate blogspot blogs all owned by the same person (who's probably raking in over $10k/day based on that one term alone). The technical term for this is "pwned". :)

in The JetBlue Advantage | Charles Hudson's Weblog on Charles Hudson's Blog
This JetBlue article is a classic "future success" story. The real scenario is that Unisys and Microsoft have promised JetBlue that they'll make all their systems work if JetBlue will go around saying that they've implemented this.

Getting free support from Microsoft and Unisys in return will be the main way that JetBlue saves money.

Think about it - Blades (unspecified brand), Itanium, ES7000 all running together with 64bit SQL Server and apps everywhere. Not bloody likely... unless Microsoft is parked in your datacenter.
