The New York Times reports of a Blogger who gets an email after complaining about a service that is not there. Other people have complained about their bills and Comcast comes back with a “Can I Help”? Even others find themselves with internet connection issues for trying to use the service. This begs the question: [...]
Another week is over. It was a fun week and also a disappointing one. Lots of stuff happened and it’s cool but there is more I wish would happen.
The LIVE SHOW came with some new faces. We talked about a lot of cool stuff and it was neat to have a different cast in the [...]

Well, we DID start the Internet, and we DID start Web 2.0 and Social [...]

LIVE SHOW was awesome as always. Recorded for posterity (or for evidence, whatever you might want [...]

Update (9:42a): One of our slave databases went down 10 minutes ago. Â We have to put [...]

The New York Times reports of a Blogger who gets an email after complaining about a service that is not there.

First of all, most likely they are not looking at your blog or twitter directly. They are most likely running searches from Google, Summize (remember - Twitter bought that company) and a bunch of other engines. They look at keywords that - in turn - give them information to turn around and say “What can we do?”
