Bought it. Beautiful song. Curiously, when I'm rested, I translate any mention of 'you' / 'your' to 'us' collectively. This bug in my thinking changes the message profoundly.

I imagine a time when all search engines have an open api where tools can merge & thinslice for discovery - 4 all the answers live in this place being the firehose.

Joe - if you haven't looked, the number is a bit diff now.

Still in fucking awe of Twitter being twitter. We love bow hunters. We love all of you. You are what the tech industry could have been, should have been ; (

If you all cash out hugely tomorrow, Monday, April 13, 2009, everyone of you deserve it.

13x over :)

Thanks Fred. Our career path offers almost no peer review, so your comments & support mean a bunch. The project I've been working on since '92 is important to Sylvi & I, and, if twitter stays independent, them too. I'm in awe of how Twitter is being twitter.

We've been scaling back here a bit - tired - I'm not sure you who pay attention understand the environment we have to create to analyze the data coming in. It's not all 'code' on a mac. I'm working on it even as I type this - - an EQ in LA is alarming my iphone.

This project is deep. It is more than 10 lines. It is NOT fun. If I succeed, it will change our understanding of evolution and reality.

If I don't succeed, I have already answered for myself what is real, and what is hard work :)

Agreed. And ppl are paying attention to what you are doing. One thing bit.ly had to its advantage is the connections of john and andy and their team at betaworks. Sometimes the incubator model does work

We've coded our own bit.ly functions inhouse, and it's more than 10 lines of code :) I'm also thinking I should have focused on that code instead of what i'm sitting here doing right now! Otoh, as Nathan suggest, maybe in another decade, I'll have our primary stuff in one line of, umm, "code".

Any funding flowing to twitter-ish developers is a good thing.

This thought ignores the impact of mining/mfg/etc. Replacing things in this way won't help. Stop using things, or using things smartly, will help.

Quake stats. Our Twitter client tagged, b4 USGS main site reported, 769 tweets from Twitter's datamine feed, and 2,468 tweets from twitter search.

Good point. I hope Obama doesn't fall prey to that habit

The folks who have held office for the past 8 years were also persistent. And they listened to their tribe. And only to their tribe.

Agreed. The path for innovation is well worn though in our future economy may need re-routed. The path for invention is filled with bottomless pits.

Fred, there is a very real possibility that investing in Wall Street and REIT's are on the same path as investing in GM, Ford, and AIG.

Re: Financial McCarthyism

I'll continue to view Wallstreet as a high stakes game with no moral rule. As the World focuses on what "can" be blamed, I suggest wondering who might be the ones who won and what position they've taken, and then adjust the thinking for the "fix".

Curiously, we think the design bit hides in the blind bit :)

Like the tweet from NK. Even better is when you can design the problem away (rather than solve it).
