Nah, they just had to move my account to a different server and I didn't update the DNS nameserver info quickly enough.

Yes -- that's my understanding of it. Bone conduction is better, he said, and less cumbersome.

I had a similar reaction, so I blogged about it here: "News flash: Yes, Facebook is selling you to advertisers" http://gigaom.com/2011/12/23/news-flash-yes-facebook-is-sell...

They don't have to be on the same level -- they both simply have to be engaged in the practice of journalism. And is the fact that they send people around the globe what makes them a journalistic entity? No. It's that they publish information that is important in some way, which is exactly what WikiLeaks does -- which makes them deserving of the same protection as the New York Times.

The article was my opinion -- obviously you are entitled to your own :-)

As the author of the post, maybe I can try and clear that up: my point was that while we have all failed to some extent -- by not supporting WikiLeaks and protesting things like the PayPal blockade and Amazon deletion and the government's dubious case -- the New York Times has failed by not using its national media platform to protest those things and their impact on free speech and freedom of the press. And my argument about why they didn't do that is in part that the NYT sees WikiLeaks as competition. Hope that helps.

before anyone gets too upset, I realize this analogy is not perfect -- as plenty of people have already pointed out. But I think the similarities are instructive.

I think the problem with this program is that it's tied not to the success of the company itself -- which everyone has a stake in -- but the success of social features with which many people at Google probably aren't even involved, and over which they have no control.

if you're talking about this presentation by Paul Adams: http://www.slideshare.net/padday/the-real-life-social-networ... -- I would agree it's a great presentation, but he works at Facebook now :-)

Nielsen sent out the wrong numbers in its initial release. I wrote about it for GigaOM and updated the post with the real figures here: http://gigaom.com/2010/10/21/books-and-video-win-on-the-ipad...
