Got sick last Wed. night, and am still kina sick... super nasty cold that won't quit. I hear this is going around.

I prefer "fluffy fingers." It's effective. RT @normative : Well, that didn't take long: http://bit.ly/91PoXu #ticklefight

@ejacqui The Internet has been changed forever, too. Can you feel it? I can. It's just.... *different*

Re: the HTC suit, a great piece on what's wrong with Apple, written in 11/09. http://bit.ly/3xLEb6. Pass it on.

MSFT should collaborate with Valve to make a SteamOS for netbook gaming.

This Scott Forestall dude has basically patented every minor & major aspect of the modern smartphone: http://bit.ly/dDgpI1

Surprised by Apple suiting HTC for making a better phone? Just wait until someone makes a better tablet ;)

Also, Buzz integrates with Google reader and my browser (via a "Note in reader" button).

The plan is to write an open letter: "Dear Apple, please get over yourself and tell us about the A4. I promise we won't laugh..."

SageTV works with 1080p content, MKV, AVI, you name it. Also DTS sound works.

"Article is to magazine as song is to album". Maybe true, maybe not. But if it is, it has big implications for a digital mag transition.
hannibalrex
Attempts to retain the issue as a basic unit of content will fail, IMO. But problem is that issue is also basic unit of pricing & ad inv.

Here's one thing that bothers me about the Wired tablet prototype: ppl won't want to read magazines on an LCD. They'll want 2 read articles.
