shampoo··on Dave Winer: An open Twitter-like ecosystem
I agree entirely. But identi.ca is the most popular implementation of status.net and it hasn't taken off. identi.ca, status.net, etc, need to offer something else that twitter.com, other then Freedom.

I'm far, far from being a "front end" coder. So I can't comment on if this produces good HTML. If however it allows me to get something up quickly without having to become a "front-end" coder, then it's going to be very useful for me.
shampoo··on Why the Mac App Sandbox makes me sad
Does anyone know what the adoption rate is for the App Store for Mac ? How many apps in the App Store cannot be downloaded outside of the App Store ? How many apps converted from being downloaded outside the App Store to inside. My question is, can Apple put the Genie back in the bottle ?
shampoo··on MG Siegler: Faith No More
The great thing about the headline to this piece is that it started with MG Siegler, which meant I could ignore it.
