First off, go with Trent, he just looks like a real person and his looks appear more natural. The others look like they are trying to hard to be good looking. As far as choice of fantasy, go with the fantasy you think you'd have the hardest time convincing someone you were seeing to go along with (you'll get more bang for you buck! Pun intended).

And they all lived happily ever after! Oh wait that's not what really happen. There's an old saying that says that if you want a happy ending it depends on where you end the the story. And that's true about MORAN ZHANG story. Mr. Zhang ends the story in 1923. Does anybody know what happened six years later? That's right kiddies the beginning of what we call today "The Great Depression." Why because Harding, Coolidge, Hoover and the Fed did exactly what
MORAN ZHANG so aptly described they sat on their hands!

Typical corporate view don't improve the service. Screw the customer. After all it's the customer's fault for actually wanting to use the service in the way it was meant.

Re: RSS is dead? My ass... (Scripting News)

I heartily agree! Every time I read things like RSS is dead I want to buy the people that write things like that a copy of the PBS series Connections. Things may change and evolve or become something they were not initially intended be, but they never die. Or they become so much more a part of the fabric of what we do, we don't realize it is even there (you said that much more eloquently).

Re: Could Google be the N.Y. Times salvation?

Google doesn't have to buy NY Times. A deal that injects cash in NYT and provides Google with something for Google News may also do the trick.

Twitter is just one of many ways to gather information. It's important that one have a variety of sources of information in order that they can come to a rational conclusion about an event. A person should also be clear about the reliability and accuracy of the information they get from specific sources and rank those sources accordingly.

Social Thing is s what I downloaded. I like a lot of the Adobe Air apps. I like Social Thing flexibility. I like apps that provide me with options. That's why I like Ping, I have options.

Yes. Thank you. I found what I was looking for. I not saying a desktop client will make it a better service. That I agree with you on. But I see extensions, plug-ins and desktop clients as tools. Ping.fm is a tool. The more tools I have at my disposal to use the more I can do. I'd use Ping regardless. It's a great tool. Now I can do even more with it.

All of which explains the popularity of Twitterific, Tweetdesk, Twhirl......Having a multitude of tabs open doesn't thrill me. Besides I use gmail, greader, google docs.

Re: Did HRC lose to sexism? (Scripting News)

I think if the reverse happened and Obama lost we'd be asking the question was the reason he lost because of racism? To a certain extent the answer to both these questions is yes. Simply put there is a segment of population out there that will vote against their interest and the reasons for that generally are irrationalism, bigotry, and ignorance.
