I gave up because it only recommended artists that I had already heard of but either didn’t want to follow or didn’t like. It ended up really being a non-event for me.

After reading this article I decided to check my “Do Not Track” status in Firefox. I had turned it on in 20 and just noticed that (evidently) the upgrade to 21 had reset it back to “No Preference”. Now that’s privacy for ya.

I don’t think worse is the right word here. It just looks like “Pitch Black 2: Electric Boogaloo”

I don’t really know why anyone cares about Scoble. I think he is the tech version of a Karashian or Paris Hilton: he’s mainly famous for being famous.

I think it’s similar to what they’ve had on the iPad interface for a while. I’m not really a fan of it.

I agree. I use Waze a lot and have found the maps and POIs to be as good as Google Maps in the US. I travel a lot around the US (not always in major metro areas either) and like knowing there’s a viable alternative to Google Maps.

I wish that Apple’s maps were better but they’ve gone with an inferior data provider and as long as they stick with them things won’t get better.

What color blue do these turn if you wear them in China? Midnight blue? For that matter I’d love to compare these to the color they’d turn in Los Angeles.

Is Son referring to Dish’s bid or their president? I think his description is apt for either.
