"Otir thank you for taking the time to comment.
A picture like the one above does have an agenda of its own, the loss of Palestinian lands is a very complicated story I don't expect this map to be 100% accurate, you are correct to point out it's flaws. Wikipedia has an alternate map here http://bit.ly/fdkn
On the other hand it is true that the areas controlled by Palestinian authorities continues to shrink. and Israel control broadens. There is plenty of responsibility for the territorial losses on all sides, including the responsibility of the world community to intervene when they should.
The current situation in Gaza cries out for international intervention, without help from the world community this crisis will only worsen and human suffering and death will continue." - tom sparks

Thanks for the comment!" - tom sparks
"Max, I am half way through 2666 right now, I had heard about Roberto Bolaño but not read him, I have Distant Star on the bookshelf ready to go next. I read this story last week a sensitive treatment of Clara and the narrators life, especially considering Bolaño was probably dieing at the time too.
The woman in the photo is beautiful and so spanish looking." - tom sparks
"Max ..
Daniel Pinchbeck is one of the great promoters of the "2012 end of times" meme. I appreciate his point of view . The current financial disaster plays very well with his theories and what he has been promoting the last few years, he must be feeling quite satisfied with him self. I linked to a video of Pinchbeck and Douglas Rushkoff discussing their philosophy in 2006 http://bit.ly/z4N6 It is long and interesting.
Thanks for pointing out this piece." - tom sparks
This plant makes more than a million hard drives EVERY WEEK. Employs more than 10,000 people. And probably made the hard drive inside your laptop. - Robert Scoble
Seagate is my sponsor and funds all of the pro "Scobleizer" videos on FastCompany.tv. This is our 100th video. I'll put up a list of all of our videos later tonight. - Robert Scoble
sofarsoshawn: I just was hanging out with 1938media. He'll laugh when he sees your comment. - Robert Scoble
Thanks to Rocky Barbanica ( @rocmanusa on Twitter) for doing such a great job on all my videos as producer/camera guy/editor. These wouldn't happen without him. Tom, we'll try, getting access to factories is VERY difficult. - Robert Scoble
I'm gonna call you on it... You said you could buy a 500GB drive for $300, a 500GB Seagate drive is approx $65 retail. :) Great vid, it's interesting to see that kind of stuff (the hardware side). - Dr. Apps

Dr. Apps: yeah, when I said that I knew I was high, but I didn't know what the real price was so I would rather be on the high side than the low one. - Robert Scoble
Eric Savits over at Barrons had an interesting article about what's up in Seagate's stock price: http://blogs.barrons.com/techt... -- the fact that a 500gb drive is $55 shows how tough this business is. - Robert Scoble
Yeah that price point is really low...margins must be incredibly thin right now... So glad i sold off my OEM hardware business in 2000... best move EVAR! - Susan Beebe
Sounds interesting. Downloading this now to watch later. - Tyson Key

"There are so many books to read. I have not read any by Ian McEwan as yet.
I found the movie to be very well crafted, the stage setting, camera work and most the acting were superb. I was particularly fond of the first half hour and the last, bringing us into the "present" was a little shocking and it was done well. Vanessa Redgrave was perfect. Briony Tallis was really the core of the story for me; all three actors who portrait her were excellent." - tom sparks
