  1. Please remember that today is buy nothing day. It's as traditional as turkey...http://bit.ly/8kqNxC #BND09
  2. RT @weiran_li: Asian stocks fall on Dubai fears... Asian stock markets tumbled Friday, with South Korea... http://bit.ly/8gBBF9
  3. @tolles Yes Chris there are Reds everywhere esp in geek world of open source and web 2.0 world of sharing and collaboration
  4. @marshallk @tolles is rather glad that the media has new overlords - but I don't think it'll last. Search will merge with media.
  5. Black Friday is Buy Nothing Day - participate by not participating, it's a fine tradition http://bit.ly/8kqNxC #BND09
  6. RT @tolles: ...people think media are a bunch of whiny bitches and can't compete. Be happy with your new search overlords
  7. RT @sheuer: one-off McSweeney's Panorama 300p. newspaper debuts with SF Chronicle's help: http://bit.ly/5v55hU
  8. RT @stevegillmor: Gillmor Gang recording live 1PM Pacific http://www.building43.com/r... http://ff.im/c0CsA
  9. How about some simple Twitter polls? Got an idea use #svideas...
  10. How much money does Apple make from Google?I think you'll be surprised
  11. @tolles Really? I think that was just a snapshot, I'm talking about a living index updated constantly
  12. @tolles Really!
  13. @tolles Alexa was based on Korean users and people who installed the toolbar, apples to oranges...
  14. @tolles Yes, but wouldn't it be quicker and use far less Internet bandwidth if it were collected into a central database?
  15. @tolles You could be right but if there was a central store of pages anyone could anlyze whatever part they want.
  16. @tolles Yes, but the value is in the algorithm not in copying a page - anyone can do that. All those spiders use nearly 50% of my bandwidth
  17. @jowyang I'm going to Le Web with the Traveling Geeks #TG09 #leweb
  18. @tolles Yes, you are right, commodity is not the right word but everyone would gain if it were a common-ity :)
  19. @tolles I get hit by 16 spiders a day all collecting the same info. Surely the analysis is the key anyone can cache a web page...
  20. Is the value in the search index or in the analysis? Surely the index is a commodity - http://bit.ly/7wPs0a
