Yes, I agree and also notice they are fast becoming an Enterprise solution as well. And they give Debian a good name by having standard release cycles.

Thus, could than one look at a slowing economy as the Sieve that forces start-ups to reconstruct their venture into one that fits your VC fund strategy?

Sorry, I should have explained you are one of the people I know who that picks their crowds so that crowd sourcing is somewhat effective

Than of course there is the indirect choice of someone following you because of a comment on FF which also produces similar dynamic.

I am curious of what produces the more reliable info the direct choice or the indirect crowd choice.

I think are confusing crowd sourcing of one's picks with crowd sourcing the unwashed masses. in one you get intelligent answers in the other not so very much. The crowd yo depend upon is only as intelligent as you were to pick them.

The two first trends change how a mobile start up might work. it use to be you specialized in Symbian C+, J2me and etc to build a platform. However, now with the the two first trends you adopt an Apple iPhone strategy whereas the web on mobile is the platform you code to with just ajax, html, css, and etc and hook it server side wise so that you can adopt fast to the market changes and thus get apps out fast. The start up can boot strap in using the Facebook platform as the user cloud computing platform and thus already have a market channel infrastructure and thus by-pass the mobile telecoms.

They are moving towards the it/enterprise way fo seeing a platform and apps relationship which means more serious apps ahead for users.

I think you mistake swearing at frustrations for something else sir...and quite frankly interjecting Equinox p2 so late within the development cycle did not help..

Sir, some evidence of your point? I mean do you have one some where to point out?

The only power was the Yahoo people walking out the door..if we are lucky a whole bunch of VCs are recruiting those individuals right now to start new start ups which have a positive impact on our high tech economy...Icahn's blow hard tactics will not..

Re: Techmeme and "Blogging 2.0"

How about the term Conversation Conflagration 2.0?

I already see the same pattern I am reading more twitter posts via web interface and FriendFeed and Disqus threads than the usual tech blogs and etc..

BTw, good taste in music..you should get the live tapes when he plays with Steve Dahl of Chicago..:) dahl.com

Re: Elevator Pitches

shareme — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 12:48:20 -0000

I go tot thinking about the MySQL architecture hints that were in the twitter interviews and how to reduce infinite queries and came up with using a search infrastructure to reduce those infinite queries..

My other idea was to use datastore apis like Apache CouchDB but that would still not get rid of the problem of finite queries only delay it..

Re: Elevator Pitches

shareme — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 11:21:42 -0000

Elevator pitch to fix twitter:

Treat the http://twitter.com/home as the same as search index result architecture wise with ful search engine architecture. Might be a way to bring back tack.

It would seem that something like the Jabber XMPP protocol becomes a DMZ transport in this area to integrate different clouds together to achieve this valued sharing.

Fro example, you could use to bridge sharing form desktop to mobile as in what Twitter had in Track to mobile client.

Value of sharing is the non-commodity here.. ie the conversation and the tools that enable that immediate conversation

Re: My Vision For Social Media

shareme — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 12:09:35 -0000

Sir, it is not life sharing as we will have a range form those who share all to those who share little bits. It is the conversation that is enabled with new tools around that sharing that is not the commodity and is valuable. Fro example, when titter goes down its not the sharing we miss as he have other such as Jaiku, its the conversation enabled by twitter's functionality that we miss and want back up.

The ah-ha moment is already occurring in discussions n GillmorGang discussion and etc. Fred, you are missing out.

Right, but normally once its installed and uncheck the show installed items than they should is appear as they have before, right?

Yes, in fact will be adding to that bug report tonight..

Is the picture comparison helping as far as understanding that there problems?

Re: PR secrets? bullshit.

shareme — Mon, 26 May 2008 13:57:21 -0000

These are the exact PR points I wanted a Start Up CEO/Original Founder in Chicago to get if that you worry and strive to get the best quality possible of the prototype and product and become spokes person for that process both to inside the company and outside the company you than have your ful pr/marketing strategies already developed into effective actions.

Unfortunately, the Chicago Start UP Founder I was conversing with is somewhat bull-headed in the illogical way and irrational way.

I look forward to using this post to being a new conversation with a new start up as this post ranks up with the Paul Graham Start Up essays in importance and value to every Start Up.

Ed Merks and everyone sorry for the delay..I will probably try again to reproduce the error on Monday or Tuesday so I can post logs attached to a bugzilla report.. I can say my current Eclipse 3.4RC1 is extremely stable..I too want people to feel comfortable with the new Update Manager its a major part of why I wanted to start using RC versions..

Once again, I do appreciate the had work everyone has completed on the Equinox P2 Updater thus far.
