Switching to SwitchABit
via Scripting News by (author unknown) on May 15, 2008
The SwitchABit platform was developed because we noticed that an ever more complex flow of ideas and information is being facilitated by editorial systems and aggregators such as Flickr, Facebook, Twitter, FriendFeed, Seesmic, Qik, Ustream, YouTube, BlogTalkRadio, Disqus, Wordpress, Tumblr, TypePad, Blogger, etc. And it's not likely to get any simpler over time, rather people are going to...

Seesmic and Disqus sittin in a tree
via Scripting News by (author unknown) on May 14, 2008
I like video comments, didn't think I would but I do. I think people are more responsible and throughtful when their words are backed by their voice and face.So when Daniel at Disqus and Loic at Seesmic asked if I would let them use Scripting News as one of the places they rolled out their new partnership I said Yes and I would be honored (I said it weeeth ze Franch agzent). I thought they...

Twitter Can Be Liberated - Here’s How
via TechCrunch by Michael Arrington on May 05, 2008
Over the last few days a number of popular bloggers have complained, loudly, that it’s time to ditch Twitter and move to a decentralized version of the service that won’t go down every time usage spikes.

Is Apple Planning To Buy Adobe?
via |Message by stowe.boyd@gmail.com (Stowe Boyd) on May 03, 2008
Cringely thinks recetn activity by Apple -- apparently shopping around its professional editing applications business -- means that Jobs wants to buy Adobe:[from Iron Man][...]The major point here is that Adobe is in play, or at least Apple thinks so.

You Got me, Darren... Thank God
via Global Neighbourhoods by shel on March 31, 2008
Apparently I lack a certain awareness of the International Dateline. I also forget how crazy those blokes play Down Under. Darren Rowse's announcement of PayPerTweet is nothing but an April Fool's joke, and it seems that I am that Fool.I am happy and relieved to feel the whispered "Gotcha" over the Internet. I'd rather get caught in a joke than see what such an awful idea could do to...

Darren Rowse Announces PayPerTweet
via Global Neighbourhoods by shel on March 31, 2008
I would have thought better of Darren Rowse. he has done some good things over the years. His newest way of making large piles of chump change, in my opinion, is not among them.
