  • anildash: @davewiner right, XML's totally set. I meant that W3C & IETF express new specs & formats in XML, not JSON - that's interesting.

    09:15:14 pm on April 21, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: @davewiner ah, I meant standards bodies express everything in XML, not JSON, so you avoid some potential conflicts by their inattention.

    09:06:01 pm on April 21, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: @davewiner The feature of JSON you'll like best is that there aren't any standards bodies or approval committees for using it.

  • anildash: Fascinating to see that @jack draws as much celebrity fawning as @aplusk at this conference.

  • anildash: Phew! Just got offstage at #FastCo10 & this audience is super engaged. Can't wait to talk to folks who had questions/feedback.

  • anildash: @escapist No, it's like saying control over privacy isn't an exclusive privilege for the technologically sophisticated.

  • anildash: @ebertchicago The problem isn't bad video games. It's that you undermine your stature as a thoughtful man by trolling video game fans.

    05:20:36 am on April 21, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: @escapist We're all celebrities. Anybody can become famous for 15 minutes at any point & by then it'll be too late to turn on privacy.

  • anildash: @gruber I was hoping for one where Hitler finds out holocaust deniers are trying to negate his place in history.

    12:40:46 am on April 21, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: @timoni The answer is that CEOs deserve privacy more than poor people? I'm not sure the answer is that clear.

    11:00:03 pm on April 20, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: Will someone ask Zuck why he doesn't use Facebook's default privacy at F8 tomorrow? If it's not good enough for him then why's it ok for us?

  • anildash: The Verified by Visa experience is so bad/frustrating it actually ends up saving me money since I don't want to deal with it. Thanks, Visa!

  • anildash: Remember when @bobbyjindal mocked "something called volcano monitoring"? http://bit.ly/jinvol You'd think he'd be in favor of disaster prep.

  • anildash: @mathowie @jessamyn probably a mistake? Would ask @ericamho since she wrote it.

  • anildash: @SouthBay_Mike http://techinsider.nextgov.com/2009/08/on_kundras_college_records.php yep, he's made shit up to ruin people's reputations.

    07:43:01 am on April 20, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: @Veronica At least he didn't falsely accuse you of exaggerating your credentials or making up a degree, as he's done to others.

  • anildash: @vambenepe It's not about the CEOs, it's about their engineers' choices.

  • anildash: @harryh Also, we're all celebs. :)

    05:43:50 am on April 20, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: @harryh I'd say privacy leaks are harder for average folks to deal with, vs. execs who have a communications team to handle fallout.

    05:43:16 am on April 20, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: @talsafran Encouraging smart defaults for privacy is stupid?

    05:41:18 am on April 20, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: @harryh Because we're all very public figures, depending on the day. Defaults matter.

    04:36:59 am on April 20, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: Every CEO of a social network should be required to use the default privacy settings for all of their accounts on the service.

  • anildash: @sacca no I'm talking about @goldman.

    03:18:17 am on April 20, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: A simple case of human error shouldn't be a big story. A company that treats such things as a firing offense is what's worthy of criticism.

  • anildash: RT @KateAtState: #womenintech, you think you have it bad? Here @StateDept, roughly 20% of the stalls in the women's bathroom are urinals. :(

  • anildash: @Jaddie Why couldn't he just post those emails to his blog?

    02:36:28 pm on April 19, 2010 |

     

  • anildash: @rrichard09 I'm not sure I'd call a tweet thrown out in jest a "lecture", but trust me, there are *many* funnier things.

  • anildash: @liabulaong Not sure that's true. May just be same problem of what gets coverage.
