Yes, I have already sent Henry a big envelope of cash to the usual
TechCrunch address. But we both know that you are the *real* number
8, MG :-)

It looks like you've been saved Mathew. Henry isn't combining the multis because of whatever he is doing for CrunchBase with the list. I will stay at #34 and #38 and leave the pressure of being a top 10 to you :)

Louis - you should know as well as anyone that bitchmemes choose you, not the other way around ;)

Ha. I love the fact that you know EXACTLY what I was doing from Twitter/FriendFeed! Seems like you guys got along just fine without me :)

Re: Movie Notes: Ocean’s Twelve

Agreed, it's possible on a second viewing I might like the film better. I
may also have a different take on it after seeing Ocean's 13 and re-watching
Ocean's 11 (which I also just rented).

When I saw it in theaters I thought it was just much too smug, but I watched it again the other night (weird that you wrote on it), and I actually like it. It's not great, but I really like the European angle and think Pitt is particularly good in it.

I think one of the keys - that you point out - is just how fast the roll out these fixes/new features. I am very impressed.

Completely agree with the thought that cynics will remains cynics while fanboys will remain fanboys. Some attempts at straight-talk, some attempts skirting around issues. Status quo will remain status quo, but at least they are putting forth some effort now.

I'm turning into you, writing all over the place :)

Agreed about Ballmer, I think this could be the beginning of the end of his - his last hurrah.

You do mean parislemonade right?

You bet Steven, glad you're aboard.

It should probably be noted that I didn't ask Mark to join until a few hours after we taped the podcast, lest anyone thinks there was some conflict of interest (as if it really matter since no one is making anything from this).

Re: ParisLemon was right to rip Window 7 Post

I'm going to stick with writing my story on how OS X 10.9 is going to be the best OS X yet because of all Apple learned from the previous versions...

Re: Wikia search: Let’s give it a break

MG Siegler — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 19:17:27 -0000

Agreed Mathew and thanks for rightly catching me mostly going against the grain on this one. If Wikia Search is going to be a success it's going to be the social/communal aspects of it and I don't see how you can deem a site a failure from day one when basically neither of those are in place - at all.

I had been worried about those social aspects after seeing the initial photos where were just a Facebook total rip-off died green, but after seeing they replaced that with a relatively simple and clean-looking social layer I'm a lot more optimistic. As you said, we'll see in 6 months.
