Idea, idea, idea… Now repeat 59 times. Voilà! 59 ideas!
When I read post like this, I recalled my own horror encounter with spam blacklist.
You can imagine the the extent of rage when after so many years, I hiss at SBL eachtime I read of similar vexation.
For the goodness sake of the Internet, blacklist the spam blacklist.
Sometimes I wonder, would Google become the next Microsoft? It seems that Microsoft and Yahoo are having problem competing with Google.
People prefer to work at Google. Even companies prefer to be acquired by Google.
Google must have done something right. Everything they do is cool. Comparatively, everything Microsoft does for a long time is an evil attemp to take over the world.
What can go wong with them? They just reported third quarter earnings growth of 92% over last year. Could they have done that by cutting back on the amount they paid to adsense publisher? No wonder people are speculating Adsense is dead.
Imagine Google went from zero to what they are now is just over half a decade. Impossible is nothing.

This must be the talk of the town. 1.65 billion in stock. Google purchase of YouTube is heating up the internet once again.
I watch YouTube because somehow Google Videos is not available in China. Would the acquisation cut off YouTube from China? I hope not.
Speculation, theory, analysis and naysayer abound.
The biggest take away for me is why buy YouTube when Google has its own video site? It is not the first time Google does this. I recall MeasureMap and Urchin (now Google Analytics). In the standard business textbook there are a few reasons for that:
Whatever the case, I’m just an observer, sometime wondering how all these money game is being played out.
This is how my GMail inbox look like since started using GTDGMail 2 weeks ago.
I didn’t take a screenshot of the inbox before but it was close to 100 times that figure.
Did GTD Work?
Well, the idea of GTD is simple and attractive. Although GTDGMail is a nice Firefox plugin to implement the concept of GTD in Gmail, I haven’t quite gotten the most out of it for 3 reasons.
All of these are not really a problem with GTD or GTDGMail per se but more of getting the workflow right.
I believe GTD fit into what I’m doing online, especially with more than a handful of ideas going on. More update as I go along.
Over the past 2 days I had an interesting exchange of email ( 11 13 at last count) with a guy that appear from nowhere. The content of the exchange can best be described as frustrating and a case of not seeing eye to eye.
Upon pondering a litter deeper however, I realise that it is not just an isolated incident but really a generic case of Web2.0 meeting the real world.
Many people, like me, live on the net, feeding on a diet of opensouce, mashup and all the fuzziness and overlaps that had became known as Web2.0.
Most of the time we are not too concern about other people using our work. This is not to say that we are condone those that blatantly steal work but rather, we prefer to embrace the idea of sharing, of community and a virtual closeness.
As much as we want to think that the whole world know what web2.0 is about, it is may very well be just 53,651 people.
So back to my story.
