Google Reader Adds Shared Notes, Non-Feed Page Capture [Social Bookmarking]
via Lifehacker by Kevin Purdy on May 05, 2008
Google adds yet another social-ish function, "Notes," to its Reader feed-browsing tool. The practical use comes from a new bookmarklet that posts whatever page you're looking at to your shared Reader items, with your own notes attached. You can also post notes with no link at all to be shared with your "friends," making it a kind of Twitter clone for, well, avid feed readers. As one blogger...

I Repeat: Do Not Listen to Your Users
via Coding Horror by (author unknown) on February 25, 2008
Paul Buchheit on listening to users:I wrote the first version of Gmail in one day. It was not very impressive. All I did was stuff my own email into the Google Groups (Usenet) indexing engine. I sent it out to a few people for feedback, and they said that it was somewhat useful, but it would be better if it searched over their email instead of mine. That was version two. After I released that...
