The current state of OpenID

Loic LeMeur is rocking - and grokking it - in more than one way!@%$#%$#&

Yes it’s true. Many VCs smoke pot.  Yet they’re hypocrites cause they would never admit or support legalization!

See how this works? TinyURL creates a market, the VCs swarm in and fund up bit.ly and now everyone will have their own URL shorterner. This is how our industry works.  No innovation, just copying the sure thing.

Indeed Facebook is growing up - just having to account for all their humor keeps things sober.

Speaking of  growing up - you always know when someone is maturing when they start thinking about families. Facebook now has constructs for families!

yes indeed Android means = Chrome, Apps, Gmail, Maps, Search, Reader, iGoogle - all for free.

Good question Nick: “What’s next for facebook - what will they announce at f8?”

Coolio!  Senate vote data in XML form! Where are the APIs?
