xkcd is our office’s unofficial cartoon, so this bit of inspirational furniture selection will probably influence our thinking for the next round of furniture purchases. But the primary color of the balls is a tad off-putting. Greys and oranges would site better with the designers, no doubt.

With Yahoo’s new social networking app, I find fascinating the way you can vandalize every one else’s pages. It inverts the idea of a profile page ‘by me’ to ‘by others’. It’s disorienting at first - it feels like the development team accidentally gave everyone administrator privileges to edit everything.

After playing with it for a few days, it’s becoming clearer to me that this app is better suited to those web socialites who are at the “enough about me, let’s pimp your profile now” stage of evolution, or who were never really into tooting their own online horn. It holds great promise for humor and more sincere online giving and exchanging of social encouragement.

But I could see one or two bad experiences with others messing around with my identity and I might abandon it.

If you aren’t part of the beta crowd yet, leave me a note and I’ll invite you.

I found this gem posted as a comment on Tech Crunch. Wish I had seen this before I got married and joined a web 2.0 startup. Copied verbatim:

  1. you will see wife’s hair fall on floor to bathroom
  2. kids… crying, screaming & kick kids will not help you boost web 2.0 ideas
  3. Having baby. you will not finish web 2.0
  4. You will miss all the fun and memories.
  5. You wife will drive you nuts. Do shopping — get food, tampods, etc…
  6. you will hear your angry wife complaints.
  7. 7.2% chance getting VC. Don’t expect to become jeff bezo. you are not that lucky.
  8. You will have gray hair soon, aggressive looks, and older looks.
  9. You will carry fat stomach and watch NASCAR, NBA, and cheer for beer.
  10. When will you finish web 2.0 hype search engine?

Rule #1
Finish your web 2.0 first before you start getting marry.
