"When can I sync my Facebook friends' contact information with my iPhone's address book?" Maybe if people keep asking, they'll relent. - Mark Trapp

"Maybe if people keep asking, they'll relent. - Mark Trapp" . . . Wow. A pig just flew by my office window. - John Craft

Ask the Mercury News people how they plan to change their business model and stay profitable as they, and other print media, move away from printed media. - Mark VandenBerg

"I would just love to know what they think of FriendFeed, if they feel their app is 'too heavy' in comparison, whether it makes many aspects of Facebook superfluous, and if they have any plans for a leaner and meaner Facebook to compensate for the heaviness that keeps many of us away (and makes FF feel so comfortable in comparison)." - Christopher Galtenberg

For Matt: How does Matt see blogging evolving in the face of tough economic times and web 2.0 consolidation? Does it go the way of Geo Cities? Does it fall off due to micro-blogging and life-streaming? Will Automattic develop a highly targeted display ad network using wordpress blogs? For Facebook: How do you get to profitability? And when? - AJ Kohn

"If you could be a tree..." (no?) - techPR

For Mullenweg: What i like about MovableType is it doesn't handcuff you to Perl, so you can integrate it with your platform. Are there any plans to allow Wordpress to operate outside of the PHP ghetto? - .LAG

"If you could have any superpower, what would it be?" - Zee. Just Zee.

Zee: Mullenweg already has superpowers. :-) - Robert Scoble

Ask Facebook what their target demographic is, and whether they see FriendFeed as a different market. - Chris White

"Ask Mercury News if they concur with Rupert Murdoch's recent statement that "we are moving from news papers to news brands" http://friendfeed.com/e/69c4d5..., and what that means for news brands like theirs... And whether unaffiliated organizations like AP gain more or less power in a world where news brands need to provide more customized news." - Christopher Galtenberg

Hi! I'd like you to ask facebook to open up their "phone book" for export to iPhone address book. Why would users want two address books, and why would users not have the right to "remember" a friend's phone number locally? - Mason Lee

Oh, please: For Matt Mullenweg, ask about Automattic's long-term plans for Intense Debate. Is this a platform for some sort of unified World-of-Wordpress login? Something which ties together self-hosted WordPress, WordPress.com -- perhaps even bbPress? Do they have it supporting Yahoo IDs yet? It was failing at last attempt. - Chris Baskind

I'd love to know if Matt will allow a FF widget in my sidebar on wordpress.com. I've been waiting ages. Please, please please ask. Pretty please. Thanks Robert - Roberto Bonini

Ask Matt what he is going to do about the incoming links section on the wordpress dashboard. the google links works less effectively than technorati ever did. its a shame. i want to see inbound links from the console. but how? - James

Roberto: there's a ton of those kinds of things I want on wordpress.com. Will focus on what Matt thinks will be the future of wordpress.com. - Robert Scoble

Mistakes made, lessons learned from them by examples. - imran

for SJMN - do they consider the SJMN "the voice of Silicon Valley" or are they just another "big City newspaper" ? . can they reveal some stats on their online version like who "reads" or "feeds" - Geographically, what content etc. - SnakeDoc

Robert: Thats interesting too. When one looks at how Windows Live as a whole group of services has re-imagined itself as a social network of sorts. Will wordpress re-imagine itself along similar lines???? - Roberto Bonini

In my mind, wordpress is awesome because it's extensible. The plugins make it great. So why doesn't wordpress.com let bloggers use them easily? Perhaps they could set up an app store like the iphone's, let users buy plugins and then split revs with developers. - mike

Thats a great idea mike, to expand the existing upgrade selection. Gets my vote. - Roberto Bonini

For Facebook: How do they intend on reaching more users if their site ain't optimized for slower connections? I've got 2mbps in Pakistan which is pretty expensive for lots of ppl to afford here and sometimes facebook takes it's own sweet time to load up on my connection too. Just imagine for ppl with slower connections? Many ppl still use dialup here! So does facebook have any plans to have a 'lite' version for developing nations instead of having ppl turn to other social networks instead? - Eldon via fftogo

Ask Facebook execs when they're going to expand their business offerings - last I heard there was some internal strife about this. - Jesse Stay

That's what I'm wondering. I should also mention setting type="application/x-shockwave-flash". The question is if the browsers are reliable enough to only allow flash (and not quicktime) and if the flash sandbox is reliable enough to stop cross-site scripting. - Paul Buchheit

There are some flaws in various versions of Flash that allow malformed SWF files to execute arbitrary code on the client. - Gabe

I'm pretty sure the HTTP Content-Type overrides the HTML type attribute. This would make you vulnerable to things like Quicktime movies with HREF tracks. Also, older versions of Flash don't support the allowscriptaccess attribute, so even if you could rely on the type attribute, users who don't upgrade their flash plugin would still be at risk. - Laurence Gonsalves

Any idea how Facebook and Myspace safely embed flash Laurence? - Paul Buchheit

I've never seen embedded flash on either, so I don't know. Can you send an example URL? Without seeing their HTML, my guess is that they'd either be using a "container" of some sort (eg: an off-domain iframe or their own flash container) or they're using a whitelist... assuming what they're doing is actually safe. myspace has certainly had their share of XSS vulnerabilities in the past. - Laurence Gonsalves

i can has embedded images in friendfeed comments? :-D - Karim
