Re: if you meet someone who doesn't get tech but is perfect in every other way, is that a dealbreaker?

i don't think i could imagine a long term relationship with someone who didn't get tech ... so the sad reality is that it probably would be a dealbreaker

Do you know when CNN iPhone app is going to be available internationally? I can't get it in the Australian iTunes store.

As much as I love this video, this has been posted and forwarded all over the internet countless times over the past few years. For you to post to this site now really makes The Inquisitr look as though you are a few years behind the times. I thought you were hoping to be a little more cutting edge than this ...

I hope John will continue to write for Slate (and be part of the Gabfest podcast).

It's all very exciting! And your observations about the different office dynamics are very interesting. I'll look forward to following your journey ...

Good call Johnnie - I also have no idea what a PR consultant actually does!
Anyway, good luck Shannon. I'm sure you'll be brilliant!

Re: Friends on Twitter.. not Facebook

peterblackqut — Sat, 07 Feb 2009 23:13:55 -0000

It's interesting you say that because I also find that I censor myself much more on Facebook than I do on Twitter,. I'm not really sure why that is ...

I think you're right for most people - Facebook is seen as being more personal than Twitter. However, I long ago gave up that distinction. In fact I happily accept friend requests from anyone on Facebook (usually slapping them with a limited profile if I don't know them in real life), but am more selective with who I follow on Twitter. I think this is because I want to get value out of who I follow on Twitter (in the form of interesting links, comments, discussions) but I don't expect to get much value out of Facebook.

You're right James, it is clearly fake. And it also isn't as good as the fake flip out he did with Judd Apatow for Knocked Up.
And if anyone hasn't that earlier video, you can watch it here - http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/4882/michael-c...

Wow they all sound amazing! I want to be a journalist now - I'm definitely in the wrong career.

I would go with Bill Hemmer too - but it means that that time slot would have to be moved to New York. One of the reasons Bill left CNN because they wanted him to move to Washington.

I would go with Bill Hemmer.He deserves the shot.

Brit will definitely be missed. He is an outstanding journalist - fair, reliable and comprehensive.

I wonder who will get that time slot on FoxNews - Bill Hemmer and Megyn Kelly? Brett Baier? Chris Wallace?

Shep is definitely one of the best anchors on Fox. His enthusiasm and energy for the news is contagious.

hmm, i cant imagine his pick up lines...

Re: Shepard Slip - mediabistro.com: TVNewser

Agreed - he is an awesome anchor. And his slips like that are part of his charm.

By the time Brown formulated a question, and then managed to spit it out, the program would be over.

I agree that Aaron Brown would be a great fit.

Re: mediabistro.com: FishbowlDC

peterblackqut — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 18:47:57 -0000

What about Aaron Brown? He'd be a perfect fit - gravitas, smart questioner, well prepared, wry sense of humor ...

I'm quite taken with the idea behind Disqus so I thought I should try it out. And I have just turned out on the Seesmic video comments as well, although I wouldn't really be expecting any video comments.
