Leaving Key West blogging
They’re talking sustainability in Cleveland today! Sorry I can’t be there!
Why would you trust RockMelt? What Netscape do for us? Didn’t Netscape abandon end-users, focus on enterprise and then blame their demise by scapegoating Microsoft? Did Netscape 4 deserve our support or loyalty? And what has Ning done to help us understand the very phenomena that it is monetizing - the growth of vertical niche social networks? So I wouldn’t be holding my breath giving loyalty or respect to RockMelt - it’s yet another Andreessen vehicle…..
Speaking of wikipedia - I need to have my bio updated. Who do I talk to about that - Jimmie Wales?
Oh goodey - Facebook launches a one-way API for mail. Ugh…….
And then there’s the ‘Facebook Lite’ - which hopefully will be only the first of a series of ‘alternative’ Facebook UIs. Lord knows they could do better than what they’ve got - so far! I’d also like to see an open source Facebook - so the governments of Singapore or Abu Dabi can feel comfortable….
Congrats to JanRain on some VC cash!

I think you’re definately right about the loyalty factor. Facebook should definately be more loyal if it wants to keep its “loyal” users.
