Amazing film! At first I was like "Hmm, very artsy, but pretty average." But after a few days later I wanted to watch it again and again and every scene became memorable. Let's just say I am not joking when I say I have watched this movie at least twenty times.
It was quite good -- very Woody Allen. Loved how they captured the period. Good casting too.
Completely agree. Plus I think I have enjoyed this exhibition http://www.albertina.at/jart/prj3/albertina/main.jart?rel=en&reserve-mode=active&content-id=... much more, than I could possibly do without watching the movie. Felt like meeting old acquaintance again.
It was a really entertaining movie, I think it helped that I'd seen no trailers though.
Fun movie, but I'm a sucker for Woody Allen. :)
It makes me sad when journalists basically state that "Google sells your information".
That said -- there was some interesting discussion in this piece, especially the question "when does targeting become discrimination?". I'd like to think that our algorithms are better than that. However advertisers will often choose their audience based on demographic data that may not actually work...

I have a question. I see those commercials where a dog has fleas then the owner comes and puts a drop of anti-flea on the dog and then it shows the dog cured. How is that one drop effective for the whole dog?
Use an oil drop over the tick and a piece of paper later to extract it. Natural and effective way and without handling.
Douglas Harry -- see http://www.vet.com/dog_flea_meds/revolution.html -- basically the active ingredient enters the bloodstream and sebaceous glands, which when consumed kill the fleas (and other things) This stuff kills ticks too, just slowly.
Miguel Angel Perez -- I've tried the oil method before with mixed results. This new method works well and is quite fast.
Make sure oil is enough viscous to impede the breathing.

Great piece, but listening it on youtube's 96k quality is a injustice to humanity, a insult to the original artist and just a shame really, never mind that it's a very bad live recording in the first place.
Here is a link to 30 seconds of it in high quality, compare The Bad Plus - Tom Sawyer - http://itun.es/iSP2X3 #iTunes

Please welcome Baron von Luxxury to Google+! Add him to your music or DJ circles today and check out his new album which you can snag for free for one week only. (though it's definitely worth paying for..)
Dubbed the "Post-Post-Synthpop King" by the LA Weekly, Baron Von Luxxury seeks to erase the lines between high and low art by merging elements of innovative dance music with the idiot immediacy of classic pop.
I had the good fortune to work with him at Red Hat before he became famous. Some day I'll tell some stories about hairnet banner ads and psychic web-sites trying to go legit by offering linux phone support. (yes! really!)

Me too! If you ever get a chance, visit the Alameda Classic Car show during the Summer. Lots of cool cars there. http://www.flickr.com/photos/clankennedy/sets/72157627850153864/
I once had a 1951 Pontiac with a hood ornament that had an indian head that lit up. Very cool. It also had a straight-8 engine and a tube radio.
Check out the hood ornament on this 1939 Pontiac Silver Streak (wish G+ could parse an image and put it inline)

Paul Lindner Sorry..I made it public now.
Dan Soto nice shots! I had to +1 the demon and eagle, very cool.
That sounds right. It had a cool visor, too.
Wow I would love to own a Packard just for the hood ornament.
Embeds United!
I'm somewhat alarmed that there really isn't a "Life of a Widget/Embed" that has best practices on how to embed Google Content on third party sites.
Has anyone tackled this before? Obviously +1, adsense, youtube, maps, analytics and others all use their own mechanisms.
Is it time to consider deploying common infrastructure for these use cases? Especially for systems that require the ability to identify a Google user?
So here's my proposal.
* Use oauth2 semantics everywhere: tokens and api requests.
* Use a single bootstrap system to identify js domain, collect API keys as needed.
* Generate two new types of OAuth tokens that do not contain user info.
- 'Anonymous-by-domain'
- 'Anonymous-by-domain-by-api-key'
* Allow an account widget that can move you from anonymous -> identified -> authorized. (including multilogin, signin and account registration)
If all the various embeds used this common system we'd have a way to enable personalization on third party sites more easily and provide a clear way to go beyond.
Am I barking up the wrong tree?

- Have a Google+ account? Try putting your other profile links in there to see if you have things all linked together. (See for more on this...)
- Webmaster? See how Google parses your site. You'll also find some good examples of how you can markup your pages to be better represented in Google+ and in Google search results.
Happy to help webmasters implement this -- leave me a message on my profile.

What did you think of it?
.. random ES thought on content-based circle classifications..
Imagine if we could infer the type of circle based on either the content you post there (via NLP), the linguistic name, or user specification?
We could:
-- boost/dampen the volume of a post based on circle matching:
I have you in my _Photos_ circle, you share to your _heavy_metal_ circle == dampen.
-- You post your high scores to _public_ + _chess_, I follow you in a circle named _games_ == boost.
-- My wife posts to _family_, I have her in _family_ == boost
-- My wife posts to _Tennis_ and public, I don't have her in a sports circle == dampen.
The reason I've been thinking about this is another what-if --
-- what if Apps had a one-to-one relationship with a plus page?
-- When I add an App, it can circle me back.
-- If I perform an action on the third party site the app can plus-mention me, or it can group together users into relavant circles to send updates.
-- I can put noisy apps in a circle and lower the volume.
Note that App could be a Game (like Angry Birds), an App (like Remember the Milk) or even a web site (like 8tracks or Soundcloud..)
Maybe this is stretching the model too much, but it's certainly fun to ponder!

Until everything in the world is in the cloud this works well for getting the bits from the linux file server in the garage to the Google TV in the living room.
Plus it uses freebase.com data to enhance your content in new and interesting ways.
That looks pretty darn handy. Too bad I don't have quite enough horsepower on my Iomega 2gb nas to do transcoding.. but then everything on there is natively playable by the gtv.. maybe I should give it a go.
Plex has their own media server that can run directly on the NAS. It's a lot better than DLNA in my opinion. Luckily Plex+GoogleTV supports most codecs. The only issue you might have is if you run Plex on your phone where transcoding might be an issue..
I've run plex on my previous DroidX, my Galaxy Tab 10.1 and now my Razr without any issues at all with transcoding really. As long as the encoding formats aren't too exotic it works fantastically. I refuse to screw around with DLNA at all.
Sounds worth a shot. I've got media-tomb running now to allow access from the PS3 and Google TV. It works kinda ok. The phone clients really seem to have a hard time with it though. Twonky will kinda work, then stop... and it forgets where it was if it stops.

Breezy day at the market. Parking meters are now $4.25/hr.
Breezy day at the market. Parking meters are now $4.25/hr.
Bumped into Benjamin Trott which was nice.
That rate is sure not going to help small business in the City. The issue of parking is a hot one, is it a tax, service or is it a fine? And, what margin over cost should cities be allowed to extract from the public for their stated mission of "facilitating the orderly flow of vehicles in an our of retail areas". Somehow $50-100 tickets for missing a few minutes does not seem proportionate to the cost or offense - IMO improving this issue could really help small businesses EVERYWHERE
Parking cost is demand based on all new meters. Combined with real time information about demand I think that'll be great for small business because people who want to park and can pay will be able to.
From http://sfpark.org/
Parking prices are incrementally raised or lowered in SFpark pilot areas based on demand. Rates change no more than once a month and only in small increments.
I guess this makes sense at a macro-level. Would be nice if things fluctuated based on real-time demand though!
