Actually "I don't like"....but I like the discussions around the topic. the heading could be interpreted as no new cash for start-ups [ the subject matter of the article ] - or - no new cash for VC's [ or the funds ]. I am seeing some early signs of defaults on draw-downs, mostly for Private equity funds. could be that some of the VC funds are experiencing a "cash crunch". - SnakeDoc

I really REALLY wish iPhone and google calendars would place nice. I wrote a post awhile back on how to sync them with Calgoo (http://blog.justinkorn.com/ind...), but I just wish they would sync over air already. - Justin Korn

@Justin, I've been using NuevaSync.com to seamlessly sync my iPhone and Google Calendar over the air. Give it a whirl. I just set it up and don't even think about it anymore. Any changes are propagated both ways. - Dylan Parker

Excited because I use both Google Calendar and Apple iCal but it's been one way from Google to Apple...glad that it will finally sync both ways. It also means I will be able to add events through my iPhone. - Rajiv Doshi

@Dylan - I did try NuevaSync and 1) had issues with it when I did and 2) Last checked, NuevaSync doesn't keep calendars separated (I have 6+) - Justin Korn

at least get him to allow the ff plugin that shows ff discussion of a wordpress.com post - Christian Burns

Cool. and get him to let WP play nicely with javascript, too - Jim Jannotti

Hmm. As a widget (easy), or each post in friendfeed automatically becomes a blog post? What about there being two different comment systems? Would comments be duplicated to wordpress, or separately hosted and managed at friend feed? Sounds like an interesting conversation though. (edited) - Mason Lee

I think that is what is wrong with WordPress. Why can't you add your own badges/widgets? - Dave Hodson

Robert! Ah! thanks for asking him! Michel is in fact very awesome :) - directeur

actually the lack of javascript is one of the great things about wordpress.com no autoplaying music, no myspace style layouts, no blogspot gettos - Christian Burns

For the record. Hosted WP is *the best* out there. Flexible and with lots of great plug-ins. Thanks for a great product. - AJ Kohn

I think that's a great idea! Have him look at the tight integration that ReadWriteWeb has with FriendFeed.. that would be great to have on a default WordPress install, or even on wp.com - Phil Glockner
