Basting thoughts on the Turkey of life - blogging

The hypocrisy of Facebook is being disclosed. How can you on one hand hide behind the shroud of privacy - while MoveOn and others complain of privacy violations? What’s wrong with this picture?

Me on the DishyMix podcast show with Susan Bratton - it was fun.

Nov. 26th mashup* in London

Joi Ito shares with us what it’s like to be Japanese - and then the happy dog makes it all go away! 

Steve Polyak reports it took him :05 to set up PeopleAggregator.  LAMP baby - all the way.

Congrats to Roland and Boris on their semi-liquid event. I wonder if the Raincity people know of the limitations of the GPL. :-)

Hewlett-Packard seems to be doing pretty good - now that they’ve gotten rid of Carly! 

Ben Metcalfe is now advising MySpace and working with Seesmic - too.   Congrats dude.

Fred Wilson is proud to be a VC - and he should be. He’s made a lot of money off of it.

They’re doing business in India.  I’ll be there in December - starting a ’soft launch’ of the project we’ve been working on all year.

I really like this guy Alex Iskold - that Richard MacManus has working for Read/Write. Here’s a great post on Hyperlocal stuff. 

CafeMom is rocking 

Dance Jam: dance contests and events as business model.  Coolio!  I agree with Rafe on this one.  And it gives M.C. Hammer a comeback path. I’m all in favor of Phoenix rising scenarios.  I bet he’ll watch his money this time around.

Where do I sign up for the Open Web Awards?

Jonathan Peterson has a flog blog - and a whole lot of crap - aggregated together. On Facebook.

Legendary Berkeley Radio Station Fires Legendary Talk Show Host 

LOTS of corps are blocking MySpace and Facebook now. I guess they want their workers to work.

Save, Show, Sync and Share your personal media at home 

Now that Arrington and Winer are investors in Sessmic - does that make up for Mark Pincus?

    laufer was a HORRIBLE host for kpfa, totally wrong sensibilities. he’s more of an npr type guy, way to centrist.

    Hey Marc,

    Thanks for liking me, I like what you are doing and writing too ;)

    Just wanted to clarify one thing - I do not really work for R/WW, I am a contributing writer. I am CEO of AdaptiveBlue.
