In some ways it can help productivity and in others it kills it as I get absorbed in all the great posts by people there. FriendFeed basically aggregates your life and your friends.

That was all Bill needed to slash and burn.  He didn't care about monopoly issues. All he cared about was crushing them before they could because he knew he couldn't turn his ship fast enough and he did - crush them. Now Google had enough sense to wait until they owned the world to do this and Microsoft is more n their heels, so they can do it, get away with it and win if they do it right. We'll see.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">clickbrain</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 02 Sep 2008 09:27:10 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Chrome, Android, and The Cloud</title><link>http://www.avc.com/a_vc/2008/09/chrome-android.html#comment-2003393</link><description>Memory allocation in Chrome is what has me excited to test it.

After getting a few folks to use, we one day spent 5 hours collaboratively editing our business plan and lost a huge chunk of edits. So, hopefully those bugs will get repaired and we can use, but my partners stopped relying on it and went back to MS - Uggh!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;On data - I trust Google with my data, but becoming more and more concerned these days. Need a system of replication not only locally, but also in a secondary remote location for everything I do on my PC whether it be in Google or locally. We've added that concept to our business model, because of the concerns we have had with them. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Natural Encryption - Or automatic encryption local and remote needs to become a component of these offerings as well. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Having been a pioneer in the Web ASP space back in 1999, I get concerned that this will impact the space (SaaS), but realize now that for full acceptance, multi-site replication of all my data and auto encryption are crucial.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">clickbrain</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 02 Sep 2008 08:52:12 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Initial thoughts on the Palin nomination (Scripting News)</title><link>http://www.scripting.com/stories/2008/08/29/initialThoughtsOnThePalinN.html#comment-1924356</link><description>There we go.

If they are stupid enough to vote against their own beliefs and best interest, then what can we do. Making this an emotional choice is silly for them and all women now and in the future. Did they think whomever was going to run against HRC was just going to let her have it? Thats what galls me about all this, the idea that she was somehow entitled to the nomination. She was/is not and for them to think that any opponent was going to roll over for her is insane. Everyone is in this to win. What did they expect Obama to do?  Please, go hang with the Republicans. Have a lovely time and when they are through using you and you see what they will do  to you and all women, don't come back knocking. We are in this to win and you are in this for god knows what.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">clickbrain</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 29 Aug 2008 22:28:50 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Initial thoughts on the Palin nomination (Scripting News)</title><link>http://www.scripting.com/stories/2008/08/29/initialThoughtsOnThePalinN.html#comment-1923803</link><description>Brilliant.

I follow you on &lt;a href="http://FriendFeed.com" rel="nofollow"&gt;FriendFeed.com&lt;/a&gt;, but I was just composing an email in Gmail replying to a Disqus comment I made and that the guys at CircleDog replied back too and there was an Adwords ad for your weblog? I am just curious as to why you advertise it. Are you driving enough ad revenue to make it worth it or are you seeking traffic to publicize your firm? In addition, its always interesting to see how well gmail targets ads in some cases and how poorly in others. Here are all the ads against which you were competing.
