were you also in a club whilst this happened? were you showing off the mustard or were you just playing with it? or was it pure accident? do you think mr burress should be sentenced to three years mandatory jail time like joe the plumber would? or should he get off cuz he's a rich celeb with a sleazy lawyer? =) - becca
@becca I went to shake the mustard before applying it to my chili dog and the cap was already up. And, blammo... right thigh. FYI: I always shake condiment containers with their caps pointing down. - Andrew Meyer
@becca Mayor Bloomberg seems to be asking city prosecutors to give him the full three years: http://fifthdown.blogs.nytimes.... He'll have good legal representation but kinda hard to wiggle out of this one with Bloomberg on his ass. - Andrew Meyer
Interesting stuff. Reminds me of http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/... a little bit. Personally, I think humans + machines can often work better than just machines. - Matt Cutts
The thing that makes me laugh is Arrington trying to say its impartial now when even Rivera was man enough to fess up to it not being in the post he put up about this. McCathy is good value, lets hope she brings some fairness to the Fox News of the tech world - Duncan Riley
Nice to see Gabe adding more staff. TechMeMe is an important product to many of us ... and a good example for others. - Charlie Anzman
Charlie, how is it a good example? Exclusionary personal fiefdoms aren't a great example for anyone - Duncan Riley
"Yep, and we've always had intricate manual "configurations" that affected the kind of headlines that would appear. What's changed here is we're editing on a per-headline basis now." - Gabe Rivera
Several of these tools came in handy helping me get back in shape this summer. I know this isn't the usual FriendFeed fare, but hopefully people will see a few interesting things that help them. - Daniel J. Pritchett
Ironically, I have a pressing need to get back in shape! Thanks! - Phil Glockner
"I use the BB browser about 20x per day
It's not great, nowhere near the safari browser on the iPhone
But it gets the job done for me whenever I need it" - Fred Wilson
I agree. I'd rather deal with the crap browser rather than the iPhone's battery life issues and the lack of keyboard. And this coming from a huge Apple fanboy since 1983. Btw Fred - you should fund a startup whose goal is to build a Safari clone for BBerry using Webkit... business model is sell it for $5. I'd buy one for everyone in my company. - Aaron deMello
"Streaming audio, particularly music, is a "put it on and let it play in the
background" experience. It's great to have someone else play the music for
you" - Fred Wilson
"can't comment on AIG or even PE but the VC discussion was spot on and i reblogged it in full at fredwilson.vc
thanks for sharing this
important stuff" - Fred Wilson
"this is a big and bold statement and i agree with it, of course.
blogging got close, but the addition of short and mobile make all the difference in the world
i think we are only starting to see the innovation in this space and i don't think twitter will end up with all the value. there will be plenty of value to go around.
just as there will be businesses more valuable than facebook built on top of facebook, there will be plenty of value built on top of twitter." - Fred Wilson
@fredwilson a perfect example; I read your response on Friend Feed using Twhirl... - Sheldon Steiger

"i love andy's words of wisdom and reblogged some of them at fredwilson.vc
i like to say, "never be greedy about a deal, but be greedy about a career"
it's all about leaving money on the table, making others rich, being a mensch, and getting all the good deals coming your way" - Fred Wilson
