It’s Saturday, January 19th, 2008, 2:26pm, and Duncan Riley of TechCrunch is Mr Techmeme. 

15 hours of demos yesterday.  Videos, podcasts, and blog posts from virtually every major and minor publication.  Utterly exhausting.
Let’s get the ball rolling here on day 2, I love it!

According to TechMeme (apparently the de facto tech news source for all of silicon valley), the BIG story of the day is Robert Scoble’s being kicked off Facebook. Now according to AP, Reuters, and a few other sources, there’s a lot of other stuff going on. But none of it seems to interest […]

I had a great day today (other than a 4am barrage of crying from my baby) at the SF Food Bank. Gotta up the ante for next month! The real question is how far can it go? How infectious can doing good really be here in the real world? All I […]

Let me paraphrase from wikipedia:
A 400 pound cat with huge nasty teeth that likes to eat meaty things.
In case you missed it, a tiger recently killed a boy and mauled two others at the SF Zoo. As a new father, I cannot possiby imagine the horror the family must be going through, and my heart […]

I read a decent amount of tech blogs, and the topic of lifecasting comes up from time to time. Dave Winer, Robert Scoble, and Jeremiah Owyang are all fans of Twitter. Bijan Sabet is a Tumblr user (and investor), and my friend Brian Solis likes, well… everything. There are a few other services out […]

Forbes put up its list of “Web Celebs” yesterday.  This list is utterly pointless and shows nothing but ignorance of the diversity of the Internet and the power of individualized content.  Sorry, it’s not completely pointless, as I’m sure 25 people feel pretty cool today, and I’m genuinely happy for them (especially for the ones […]

Saw on good ol TechMeme today that TIME mag put out 50 “Top 10″ Lists.  Now I love me a Top 10 list as much as anyone.  I clicked through to check it out.  Normally I’d read each list.  Except there’s never a List, just individual entries!  Rather than having to browse through 50 pages, […]

Last night I wrote a letter to my Congresswoman, Nancy Pelosi, regarding my concerns over the newly introduced PRO IP act. This is one of those moments where I felt the issue was so important I wanted to make sure the awareness spread beyond the typical scope of my readership. As a result, […]

I’ll put the Last of the Mohicans score (by Randy Edelman) down as one of my favorites of all time (some others include: LOTR, Dragon: the Bruce Lee Story, Schindler’s List, Raiders, Star Wars (duh), Jurassic Park, and Danny Elfman’s Batman). Saw this commercial while watching last week’s Steelers game:

Awesome.
