Seen outside the office yesterday. Possible explanations:
- 100 days before Burning Man, gotta prepare for the Playa
- Lady Gaga now works in our building
- New Google bikes are even more theft-deterrent (see how it's not even locked to anything?)

Note to my former LinkedIn colleagues -- verify your site by following the directions here:
You can even put the rel="publisher" link in the head. No visible link required! Also contact me off-list about getting name verified.

Here's a blast from the past. I wonder if the Google lawyers would let us slip a T-Shirt clause into the next version of the Google terms of service?
[FYI - I'm finally migrating my youtube videos from an old google account to match the account I use for Google+. I recommend you do the same, it's just so much better to have the two accounts linked together...]
I actually own one of the Gopher World Tour T-shirts :-) it was from the 2nd Annual Gopher Conference at the University of Minnesota, if I remember correctly.
Congrats Ryan Schultz, that conference was a blast.
Adam Curry - if you still have that shirt you might want to loan it to the Computer History Museum. They have my well-used version right now...
This is a great little slice of history from the early 90s.
This is a great little slice of history from the early 90s. Reminds me of the times I saw BiT perform in the 7th Street Entry back in Minneapolis. And it was satisfying to hear them on his show back then too.

- Add a link to your Typepad profile from your Google+ profile
Edit your Other Profiles section.
In a few days you'll start seeing your name and face next to your Blog posts in search. Check out the example below to see what it looks like.
Enjoy!
A bit tired of wordpress security issues. I've had to help friends get upgraded after they got _pharma'd_ and today the LinkedIn blog was compromised. What's funny is that they reset my LinkedIn account in addition to my WP account..
[and no I didn't realize that I still had access to the LinkedIn blog :)]

I was pondering about how pop music is tuned for mp3 dynamic range this morning and came up with an idea:
Google Play Musicgram
Just imagine:
- AM Radio effect for all your Sinatra songs.
- See what Elvis would sound like autotuned.
- "Chipmunk" Barry White. (or chipmunk Cyndy Lauper and see if your dog can hear it..)
- RPM 33,45,78 (for those that remember such things.)
- Def setting (adds random DJ scratching)
Or we standardize something like this as "html5 audio transforms".

Yahoo social APIs down for 8h -- no contact imports for us!
It was obviously a software push on their end. I could see the clusters updating in our graphs in stages.
Anyone have a backchannel? I've escalated through their NOC and I'm not getting anywhere...

Milk bottles are great, except for the drips when you pour.
Milk bottles are great, except for the drips when you pour. The folks at Chow restaurant came up with a bottle top that fixes this annoying problem. Just ask, they'll sell you one for a dollar.
They really should sell this online, I was unable to find anything comparable.
Straus should just do this by default. Emailing them now!
The guy at Chow didn't know where they obtained these toppers. I'll see if I can find out more the next time I'm there..
Goggles sent me here (scroll down), although I would rather find where these guys are getting them from. http://www.localamishfarms.com/glass_milk_bottles_for_sale.htm
Cool, should've thought of Goggles to search by image.
And look what we have here.. XFN for dead-people profiles.
rel="friend" seems a bit macabre.

IDF'able?
Goal: Propagate family information
Insight: there's usually a member of the family that is the master curator of the family tree.
Solution: Nudge curators to share their family circle.
- Compute the Family circle sizes for all the people in your family circle
- If you have the largest circle prompt to share your Family circle to your Family circle.
Caveats: obviously if you're married/divorced your family circle might be disjoint, which means that there will be unrelated people.

I think there's some interesting research one could do on the virality of the photo you see below.
The sad fact is that my wife found this photo in her twitter feed because WIlliam Gibson tweeted a link to the flickr page. I searched for his name on Google+ and found him and was the first reshare, after that it spread quite nicely.
I suspect there's similar spread on Facebook, twitter retweets, flickr and other networks.
In any case I'm really enjoying following the ripples for this post and watching it spread throughout G+.

Interesting, but would need proper SEO to achieve the goals stated here:
Actually, I would say you've found a swarm. They are out looking for a new place to call home. The queen is in there somewhere.
Sometimes a new queen will take a group from an existing hive, and venture out on her own to make a new hive. Other times, a whole hive will relocate for various reasons. (not enough food source in former location, destruction of hive, etc...)
The bay-area housing market is tough all around :)
He looks like he's ready for some food! :o)
