Hugh Griffiths, Head of Mobile at Microsoft UK, isn't aware of the speed of phone churn? What the hell? - abacab
@colbypalmer: I share your feelings, honestly, but given the relatively sad state of all browsers, I feel compelled to give it a full spin.
How many "little people" = enough Scoble|Arrington|etc to get noticed when you have a problem, be it Facebook, Seagate, Comcast, etc? Sad.
Will I--can I--love you, IE8? Or will you build me up just to tear me down all over again?
Word of the day: affordances.
And hey, why not let me see the real number anyway? "1000+" is boring. Lemme make a game out of it or something.
This morning, I attempt to tame my Google Reader item count. Pretty sure "1000+" is just GReader being polite. VERY polite.

"these newspapers have dumped most of their foreign bureaus, food critics, and film critics, and are loathe to assign reporters to stories that will take months to research and write. In doing so, they are eviscerating that which makes newspapers different from online reviews, blogs and websites. When papers end up like USA Today, there will be no reason to read them." - abacab
"What will happen when most of the country has nothing but entertainment, gossip and sports as sources of information? It’s a country ripe for takeover, if you ask me. A place where public opinion can be easily manipulated, as long as the consumers keep buying." - abacab
