The point I was trying to make is that if a company is all executives and no workers you can smell that. Maybe the ratio shouldn't be 13:1, but the best companies I've visited are at least 4:1. FriendFeed is a weird one because that one company had superstars (one guy ran the teams that started Gmail, another Google Maps, another Google Talk).</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 13 Nov 2009 21:49:11 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The worst question in social media</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2009/11/13/the-worst-question-in-social-media/#comment-22962132</link><description>There are some jobs that simply aren't fun. I don't think anyone ever wants to clean toilets, for instance, but someone does. I'm very fortunate to have a job I absolutely love but there are plenty who don't. Usually when someone hands you a buck it isn't because they care whether or not you are having fun.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 13 Nov 2009 20:44:45 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The worst question in social media</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2009/11/13/the-worst-question-in-social-media/#comment-22961241</link><description>I'm putting YOU on a list! :-)</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 13 Nov 2009 20:34:12 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The worst question in social media</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2009/11/13/the-worst-question-in-social-media/#comment-22961223</link><description>Bing!

On the other hand, he might really not like how the whole package is put together. After using the Droid all week long I really find lots of little things that just piss me off. Of course on the iPhone getting dropped calls pisses me off too. On the Droid things that piss me off are more important than dropped calls (like not smooth scrolling, and hard to click links in Twitter apps). I just don't like the Droid and how it's put together AS A PRODUCT. That said, it is better than every other phone out there so at least your dad will be able to say "I have a better phone than all those Blackberry users."</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 13 Nov 2009 17:50:34 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: My world has changed (and I get to share with you)</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2009/11/13/twitter-lists-lifechangin/#comment-22922364</link><description>That's just because no one has done that yet with list names.

I won't go back on that and don't recommend regular people get the Droid -- the iPhone is a far better product. But Android isn't a product. Look at all the comments here. They overlook that fact.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 13 Nov 2009 13:29:40 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: My world has changed (and I get to share with you)</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2009/11/13/twitter-lists-lifechangin/#comment-22918172</link><description>Lists are tags.

Yes, they are NOT "true HD" but they are very sharp and very good looking. Not on the Droid. They look like ass on the Droid.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:15:24 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The Droid fails AS A PRODUCT when compared to Palm Pre and iPhone</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2009/11/08/droid-palm-pre-iphone-product-comparison/#comment-22255207</link><description>This is a major reason why I bought one. I think Apple needs competition. That's healthy for all of us.

But I think you are right on. Google is making big plays to stick its foot into enterprises. Microsoft better watch out here.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:52:21 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The Droid fails AS A PRODUCT when compared to Palm Pre and iPhone</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2009/11/08/droid-palm-pre-iphone-product-comparison/#comment-22254830</link><description>It's not quite that simple, though. Google has a better platform-building team and approach. This is why Android has come in late into the market and already gotten more than 10,000 apps built for it (something that Microsoft, Nokia, Palm and others have failed to do, by the way). The platform eventually wins. Or at least that's been true so far. That beautiful Mac? It was cloned "enough" by Microsoft and Microsoft's superior platform approach led it to 90% marketshare. Being beautiful and usable is NOT enough!</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:50:34 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The Droid fails AS A PRODUCT when compared to Palm Pre and iPhone</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2009/11/08/droid-palm-pre-iphone-product-comparison/#comment-22254704</link><description>That said, my new Toyota Prius has a very good GPS system, so I don't need turn-by-turn the way other people might.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:45:17 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The Droid fails AS A PRODUCT when compared to Palm Pre and iPhone</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2009/11/08/droid-palm-pre-iphone-product-comparison/#comment-22254689</link><description>Ahh, yes, I just forgot about that. We talked about Google's Maps in the podcast. I'll add that as another good thing about Droid (turn-by-turn directions and street-level views rock on the Droid).</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:44:44 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The Droid fails AS A PRODUCT when compared to Palm Pre and iPhone</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2009/11/08/droid-palm-pre-iphone-product-comparison/#comment-22254154</link><description>Mark: yes. That's why I feel Android is Windows 3.1. It's ugly. But you can see the future is going to be very bright. Developers ARE supporting Android in a big way. It's their second platform, I've been interviewing a ton of them.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Scobleizer</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:42:15 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
