  1. That was the most successful failure I've ever watched.
  2. T-minus 10 minutes (this is when the exciting stuff starts happening). spacex.com/webcast/
  3. SpaceX's entire history, including rocket design, testing, and launch operations, has cost less than Facebook paid for Instagram.
  4. SpaceX is about to launch a rocket toward the ISS. This is a pivotal moment for mankind. Watch live: spacex.com/webcast/
  5. A million dollars is a resource. A billion dollars is a ranking.
  6. Warren Buffett on IPOs dcurt.is/warren-buffett…
  7. I updated the Twitter tracking post with new information (plus an email from Twitter): dcurt.is/twitter-is-tra…
  8. The "Do Not Track" flag is ridiculous. It's a PR distraction. Chrome doesn't even support it. Tracking users should be opt-in, not opt-out.
  9. Privacy is about expectation and behavior. Most people do not expect their browsing history to be available to anyone. It shouldn't be.
  10. Just because advertising networks and Facebook have already been tracking people doesn't make it OK for Twitter to do the same.
  11. Twitter is tracking you on the web dcurt.is/twitter-is-tra… (This has huge privacy implications.)
  12. "Do you think Facebook will still be the most popular social network in 10 years?" No.
  13. $100,000,000 allthingsd.com/20120516/exclu…
  14. @DanielZarick Bingo.
  15. Six months from tomorrow is going to be a very big day.
  16. Finally met @parislemon tonight. Surprisingly, he was human.
  17. @zenmatt I'm playing the game.
  18. My life has become an endless series of meetings.
