I think people who don’t like this film is just because they don’t understand what does it mean.
Lucky them.

I found your blog today via card in the river. You left a comment on Metafilter that had me laughing for five minutes nonstop. Seriously. Anyways, thanks and hi!

Comment on Social media before the internet: a case study by Dan Thornton

Yeah, but surfers did it even earlier….

I’m glad to see someone else who realises social networking has existed since the first caveperson tried to show fire to the person in the next cave…

And it’s definitely something that is more apparent to anyone who was involved in skateboarding, surfing, comics, punk, metal, or anything outside of the maintstream - who had to make links with people further away, because peers in their local neighbourhood were so limited…

I wonder how much Billy Wilder hated his older brother, the director of Killers from Space.

And I wonder how much Peter Graves hated W. Lee Wilder for tricking him into thinking he was the same guy who directed him in Stalag 17.

This was my submission, in case you were wondering. Sorry you had to watch it.

As for the review, it’s as good as I could have hoped. Which is to say, far better than this movie deserves. My hat’s off to you.

Thanks for the tip on the blueberry pancakes. I’ve needed that several times in the past, and now I’m armed with the kind of insider’s knowledge to prove my geek cred.

You either continue being paranoid or you embrace the web as a communication tool that you use to discuss your interests and passions. I know people who have gotten their dream jobs because of what they write on their blogs.

OK, perhaps I’m a little paranoid about my security, but why would I want to be searchable on the internet? If people know me in the real world, I can tell them where I am online. If I meet someone online I want to be able to control whether they know who I am RT or not…
Given that employers are searching out prospective employee’s online blogs, I want to be damn sure I don’t blow my chances of that dream job by a mis-interpreted posting somewhere!

I took a deeper look at Ziki, but it was taking forever to load and had some bad grammar/spelling problems on some pages, which lessened my trust of it.

Primarily, I think some of these name/profile services are only useful if you have already created content somewhere and are looking to differentiate yourself from others with the same name.

I’m fortunate in having a unique name, but when I used Ziki to search my name, it seemed less effective than Google.

I agree with your point about Yahoo and MSN but realize Google is still dominate in the search field.
