Second Presidential Debate is interesting. My view so far.

2008-10-07T19:27:00.001-07:00

McCain looks stronger even though Obama talks well.
McCain keeps attacking Obama and making fun of him.
Both confused everyone in terms of who is better in terms of their policies for tax/healthcare issues.
Brokaw does not like Obama . I can feel it
White lady next to me in the bar keeps nodding and disagreeing with every sentence of Obama
McCain idea about economy turns into some family drama.
McCains goes for a kill by emotional drama.

@Techcrunch is/was down because of following reasons

2008-06-02T13:39:00.001-07:00

They have single master MySQL Server - Thats Michael Arrington.
Their architecture does not support auto switch to hot backup - no hotness in Techcrunch
They needs some one to stay at Michael's house 24x7x365 to monitor server so that it doesnt go down - His garage is filled up Caffeine and Alcohol for 18 year old kids who slog for Arrington
They use Ruby On Rails like Twitter does, but this time technology is not a problem, attitude is what is causing the downtime.

You think I'm kidding?.

Digg Story: Only the Creepiest Photos Ever Taken [PICS]

It is very creepy.

Mourning is a strange thing, and different cultures deal with it in vastly different ways. But there’s a reason people associate the Victorians above all with morbidity and death. These postmortem photographs were taken more than any other kind of photograph in the Victorian era, especially in the U.S.

Why Kevin Rose has more followers on Twitter than Evan williams himself?

2008-04-23T08:51:00.001-07:00

Kevin Rose (digg fame) who also launched pownce with his friends, a competitive service to twitter which was started by Evan williams (blogger fame) with his friends.

As everyone know twitter being center of the web2.0 universe right now. Kevin also hangs out on twitter and Eve as well (offcourse!).

Kevin Rose has 16,981 followers (See the image below)

Evan williams has 10, 418 followers (See the image below)

So question is How come Kevin R has more followers on Twitter than Evan W (even though he is THE twitter guy) ?,

Kevin more popular than Eve ?
Digg more popular than Blogger ?
Pownce catching up with Twitter ?
May be I'm feeling sleepy this morning.

Does this mean I can run my own Twitter like app? - World of open source enablers

@duncanriley wrote this article today on techcrunch.

http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/03/24/revou-lets-you-host-your-own-twitter/

Its funny, how easy these guys make it. ReVou lets you build your own microblogging site including admin piece of it, pretty neat.

As he mentioned in the article Pligg was a Open source version of Digg, but how many people took that and made a business out of it. Digg was too big by then. Same story with Twitter. It is at the pinnacle of sucesss right now, so any new clone or open source app coming will not make much of difference. Rather it speaks more for the popularity and success of the original apps like Digg and Twitter.

AOL bebo deal - The best thing AOL has seen for ages

2008-03-20T09:23:00.001-07:00

@erickschonfeld are you kidding me?. Bebo is the best thing that has happened to AOL in a long time. as compared to all the crappy deals they have done all these years. Guess $850 m is still way low evaluation for Bebo, they were sold so cheap, AOL got a elephant for the price of dog!. (pardon my comparison here) but you got my point right?.

Think about it, AOL is sitting on their butt for so many years (with all the money they made by selling internet services over the year and not to mention harassing people by sending those stupid CD's in a mail) and there comes a 3rd biggest social network Bebo for the price less than they were thinking. As you said @erickschonfeld said in his article

22.9 million unique visitors in February and 10.3 billion pageviews

Which is massive, add that to AOL's crown and boom they become now valuable.

Bebo paid the price for going for less than a billion dollar, because they are not in the Silicon Valley as simple as that. Mark Zuckerberg made smart move by moving Facebook to valley. His evaluation went right up by millions of dollars (that to 2-3 digits).

'American Idol' Behind the Scenes - How they keep it secet ?

2008-03-19T13:51:00.001-07:00

I always wondered how American Idol or any reality show keeps such a tight control on insider news, results. It is possible that people can goof up and cat is out. Here is the info how AI people do it

Set Secrets: To make sure no info gets leaked during the show, the Idol staff doesn't allow any electronic devices into the studio--that includes phones, cameras, BlackBerrys, Palm Pilots and Sidekicks. No texting or early voting allowed! And if you're wondering why no seat ever looks empty in the studio, even though some people (like celebs) might leave early during the show, here's the trick: They have plenty of seat fillers on hand to sit in a seat if someone gets up and doesn't make it back before the commercial break ends. Gotta love television magic.

Interesting Here is the whole article you can read on NYPOST this.

Smart cars in USA

I heard this in news yesterday and Looks like Smartcar will be out in USA finally after few years of struggle to get it unlocked in USA. I'm happy to see this news. I was blown away to see SmartCars in action when I was in Europe few months back. They are all over the place.

Some stats

30,000 people already booked this in USA already
Starting price will be 12,000
Best is you can possibly park this car NOSE DOWN in usa and it will still take much less space than bigger cars.
