@Louis Yeah, we got lucky with really positive coverage on ReadWriteWeb/ Mashable and TechCrunch (TC was more of a recognition of our existence than anything else) among others when we went into private beta a week or so back. We have had no LG love (or scorn) :( Kimberly, Chris and I are sorry if we unconsciously offended you in some way... We look forward to someday earning a mention on your blog.

fun attractions but a really messed up society. - Michael J. Cohen (mjc)

That is *absurd* - Dan Hsiao

Tower of Babel? - Bwana

Optimus Prime - Lizunlong

that's just wrong. - Cee Bee

totally agree w/ michael:) - shandiz

Tower of Babel! wow, there it is! how tall is that thing?! - Susan Beebe (Santa Claus)

It'll be interesting in 10-15 years if that city dries up and becomes a ghost town - think of how cool it would be to tour that! - Tad, TV's Patrick Duffy

This tower is already taller than the tallest skyscraper in the world (Taipei 101) - Jean-François Amadei via twhirl

yikes... scary how monstrous that is... I wonder if someone is compensating for a small......... ego. - ChangeForge | Ken Stewart via twhirl

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B... - Robin Barooah

Orthanc? - Akiva Moskovitz

surreal - since usually you see lots of other partially as high buildings around something like this - here its lots of open space - mike "glemak" dunn

Oil money much? - Shey

I just heard that Dubai has a third of the world's cranes. - Gabe

I wonder if the tower of Babel looked like that? - Robert

I have a feeling the next September 11 won't be in New York. - John Lam

Do I sense jealousy? I think it's incredible. About time someone built something impressive. The US should follow suit with a suitably impressive WTC memorial. As for a messed up society? Pff, when your own house is in order then go after someone elses. - Mo Kargas

Robert, I was thinking exactly the same thing ;) - Graham Garland

any taller and it'll scratch our precious ozone - Pete Delucchi

Compare to Frank Lloyd Wright's mile high building: http://tinyurl.com/milehigh - Ryan Junee

Wow, that is awe-inspiring. I would be scared out of my mind to be on that thing when it is finished, let alone being the crane operator. Gives me the heeby geebies just thinking about it! - Tony

Jenga? - Franklin Naval

messed up society? ... compensating? ...lol i hope you two are not from that country i think you come from. - Chris Hofmann

It really makes you wonder how much of the space in that building is just elevators... - Gabe

Do they have to compensate for the rotation of the Earth? Do they have to reinforce the west side? - tim

@Robert that's exactly what it reminded me of - Shey

Dubai must be an interesting place visually. All sorts of weird buildings there. - Yolanda

2,684 ft (818m) in height! wow, that's over 1/2 a mile high! - Susan Beebe (Santa Claus)

The same architect was going to build a 2400-foot casino resort here in Vegas before the FAA intervened and got it canceled. Something about it being in the way of planes. - Chris Reed

that's crazy - andy brudtkuhl

no way in hell am I going to the top of that thing. imagine being an iron worker on the very top? well I guess it's like China, labor is replaceable - clarke thomas

There are many over-the-top examples of Dubai architecture, but the one that really knocks my socks off is the project to build an entirely new city with extreme "green" ambition http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M... I'm frequently amazed by the sheer quantity of projects like this happening in UAE. - Jason Wehmhoener

What's Barad-dûr doing in the middle of Dubai?? - Will DeLuca

Wow, that's crazy! - Sarah Perez

reminds me of LOTR - anna

it'll be great when it's finished. Dubai, that is... Dubai will be great when it's finished... - Andrew Terry

Reminded me of Gustav Doré's Tower Of Babel illustration: http://is.gd/UjL Amazing, truly. - Madsimian

Ha! Commented before expanding comments to see all the "Tower of Babel" exclamations. It sure is a natural point of reference... - Madsimian

Dubai: where Erector sets join together for REALLY big projects. - Kevin C. Tofel

Very impressive piece of engineering and architecture! - Jeff P. Henderson

Why? I don't understand why. It's like they are trying to prove something. But how many workers died building this vanity project? - Liz

Liz it's not the Middle Ages. I am sure the building is not resting on the bones of the poor exploited workers. - John Samuelson

This is amazing. Ze Frank just shared it too. How did they do all this? - Robert Scoble

One frame at a time. Very cool. - Andrew Smith

you can't use Track in anything but IM right? (that is, you can't use it in Twhirl and other similar clients) - Chris Dahl

I'm trying out twitterspy... add twitterspy@jabber.org in your IM client and type 'help' - Ryan Junee via Alert Thingy

It is amazing like such a simple concept like Friendfeed could turn into something so complex, so complete. What is even more amazing is seeing how Twitter had it all and was able to go down in such an idiotic way. - Rodrigo Leme

Let me know how you like it! (Gridjit) - Ray Grieselhuber

Refugees unite - tear down the walls of single vendor-ness - break though the barriers of 140 characters - unite in your FriendFeed-liness! - Marc Canter

I'm waiting for my gridjit invite. - Russellreno

I thought about making NoiseRiver a closed alpha (by invites) actually. But then told to myself: to hell with hesitation, let's make it and face bugs together! ;-) - directeur via NoiseRiver

Directeur: Have you check you inbox for all your new followers lately? - Russellreno

Congrats on all the great press! - Patrick Lightbody

@Russellreno : ouch! It's full! I'm subscribing to many of them, maybe I'm skipping some but I'll definitely see that again :) - directeur via NoiseRiver

Thanks Patrick! Actually without the great feedback from you folks that wouldn't happen... The first 20 minutes of the launch were really HOT :) - directeur via NoiseRiver

What a great slice of NYC history. - cartoongoddess

It is always baffling to see city streets filled with horses. - Thomas Brox Røst

I dreamt about New York last night. These pictures are amazing. The Automatic Vaudeville, the Comedy-Theatre, I daresay it makes one desire to return to tin smithery! Or perhaps to the days before air conditioning, when people gathered on the front stoop to socialize because it was cooler there. (Sort of like FriendFeed but in meatspace.) - Karim

So the NYT article seems to be the best endorsement of alchemy since 1500. - Chris Reed

I agree with your main point about the ridiculous fear mongering and sensationalism exhibited by the mainstream media. However I don't think this logic furthers your argument: "But researchers who have raised concerns say that just because science can’t explain the mechanism doesn’t mean one doesn’t exist." Try swapping out "the mechanism" and replacing it with "Santa Claus" to see the wondrous immaturity of this logic. Science is good at falsifying claims - proving something is incorrect. Science can in fact 'explain' Santa Clause by showing that he does not exist (among other things we can show it is impossible for one man to travel to every household in the world in a 24 hour period). On the other hand, science cannot falsify a hypothesis that hasn't been made yet - thus we can't really say anything about a biological mechanism we may not know about. - Ryan Junee

This is a cool feature and worthy competition for twitter + photo-sharing sites geared towards it. - Mustafa K. Isik

cool - kartik vaithyanathan

Thanks Paul. Kudos to Gary for a cool application! - Mitchell Tsai

Gary Burd (http://friendfeed.com/gburd) created mail2ff, Mitchell. - Paul Buchheit

Yea Mail 2 FF! - Kevin D. White

Awesome, I have been waiting for this app. - Bret Taylor
