RT @jenny8lee: xkcd's Randy Munroe on why he disagrees with Google+'s gender identity policy (why can't it be made private?) https://plus.google.com/u...
I ended up saying my piece about Google+ here: https://plus.google.com/1133126... (long comment towards the bottom)
RT @mkapor: Murdoch to close News of the World. How to get Fox News in the closure queue? http://www.nytimes.com/2011...
After a few days with Google+, I have a new appreciation for Twitter and Facebook.
"You invited [redacted] to join Facebook on November 7, 2007. He has just joined."
RT @JPBarlow: A movement to abolish corporate "personhood" is beginning. Join it. http://movetoamend.org/
RT @debasishg: @jboner same problem here .. Twitter is where the signal to noise ratio is max. Now g+ looks like a geekier FB ;)
RT @accarmichael: Isn't it unethical for a company that sells a diagnostic test to also sell treatments for what it claims to measure?

How is it legal to describe things you have to pay for as 'free'? http://tctechcrunch.files.wordpress.com/2011...
I wonder whether Lion is the last OS X Apple will ship separately, since they'll be able to just keep updating it with deltas?
The panopticon just spied me. (a google street view car that is)
If corporations are people, can I keep a few in my glove-box and drive in the carpool lane?
RT @agaricus: Very inspired by @accarmichael post on shared mood tracking. Useful knowledge! #quantifiedself http://quantifiedself.com/2011...

Just noticed that something I built 22 years ago is "patent pending". The prior art is on long-decayed floppies in an attic somewhere.
#qs2011 I feel surprisingly calm and energized today after the conference. Lots of positive energy going around.

RT @stevedekorte: Would love to see Apple support developer version of App Store with way of profit sharing for framework usage...
RT @joe_edelman: @rbarooah Kauffman, Melanie Mitchell, and Hofstadter all have a bunch of gorgeous, simple results. James J Gibson is also worth a peak.
RT @joe_edelman: @rbarooah Stuart Kauffman?

Designed with great attention to detail - a healthcare tracker for iPhone that actually works from my friend Raj: http://www.tonicselfcare.com/Tonic...
