No one knows the questions we blogger will have to answer at the end of our days.
(But this is no unique selling point for us bloggers. The same is true for the fly fishermen and the stamp-collectors.)

Dana Gardner has made some good thougths about ethic and responsibility.

In a recent Gillmor Gang (Backward Gang, last part, which is - for reasons I don't know - part I, btw. the best episode I've heard yet) Dana Gardner and Jason Calacanis had a great discussion about this topic.

(Last Judgement part 1 can be seen here)

After these amazing numbers Google has just announced (see Donna Bogatin at ZDNet) and the power Google shows (see also Donna Bogatin) we all have the hope that we are not longer obliged to memorize those billions of Web-2.0-company. One seems to be enough.

(This is the third part of the implicit series "Web 2.0 Made Easy". See also The New VC Process and Pricing 2.0)

As no one can live without Friendster, we hope it will get a bunch if money out of the social and community related patents (see Techdirt or GigaOM).

After announcing the Blackbox (see Jonathan Schwartz' post) the Schwartzbox is just a small suggestion for another product Sun could offer.
It's addressed to CEOs who wants to become as geeky-freaky as Jonathan Schwartz (see an early post from this blog).

Ed Bott complains about the fact that the Vista license will allow only one transfer to another computer. Paul Thurrott says this is no restriction because you were never allowed to do arbitrary transfers.

Times are getting faster and faster (see Jonathan Schwartz' post).

The academic freedom may not in any case be improved by copyright laws (see ZDNet).

The planned filter against copyright infringement (see Alexa Veiga on Yahoo news) is a great opportunity for Google/YouTube.

Microsoft warns of PowerPoint attack (see Slashdot or security.itworld.com).

It's hard for the government (in any country of the world) to keep pace with Web X.0. So it's thrilling if Google will wake up the DOJ (see Rough Type). But frankly: who understand what's going on?

Kill-switching is not funny (see Russell Shaw on ZDNet) but we're in a war against the pirates.

 
The Only-The-Crowds-Determines-Whats-Top-Model from Digg is great (Michael Arrington likes it - see CrunchNotes - unlike Nicholas Carr - see Rough Type).
But there may some counter-examples for the wisdom of the crowds.

I'm really proud of those brave men fighting for the Woodstock generation and their ideals (see Techdirt and The Oregonian).

The VCs are complaining about the demise of the traditional venture model (see ZDNet). But look at YouTube who has just been aquired by Google (see TechCrunch): You just have to follow the new model.

Finally the day has come that also the companies producing physical products are fighting for their rights to control their product even after they have got the money from the customer (see Techdirt and CL&P). Hopefully they will adopt the great rights management systems from the digital world.

With the Martin-Luther-King-search-results (see Nicholas Carr) Google has shown its enormous abilities to prove political facts (see Techdirt and Reuters).

I'm looking forward to new shopping experiences Walmart will be able to build with the data it will collect (see Techdirt).
