Congrats, Jeff! They're lucky to have you.

Feld Thoughts : Amazon Fires Its Affiliates in Colorado (Including Me) Because of Colorado HB 10-1193

Tue, 9 Mar 2010 00:55:00 +0000

Not only did they screw all of us affiliates, but they also fucked themselves out of the income tax we paid on the affiliate income. If it really was $37.5M of income, that's probably at least $10M of tax revenue that's gone. Nice work.

Feld Thoughts : A Roll Cloud

Wow. If I was on that beach, and had seen this cloud (without having ever seen a picture of one), I would be seriously contemplating the end of the world.

http://www.jeffnolan.com/blog/ : Kindle 2 Far

I think it would require a different sort of display technology, too. As you've no doubt noticed on the kindle, the screen refresh is pretty slow...assuming that's a limitation of the current technology, they'll have to think of something new there.

Hmm. I use a Kindle every day...my thoughts on your list: 1. Color? Don't care. I mean, it would be cool, but not a game changer. 2. Video? No thanks. I want to read books on it. I've already got multiple devices that will play video just fine. 3. DRM workaround. Yes please! 4. Battery - for what it does today, the battery is fine. I think for technical books, where you might have charts you need to refer to and such, the new Kindle DX will be just the ticket (it's a bit of a hassle on the existing one). Newspapers? Not sure...if they remain formatted the same way as the existing ones (I read WSJ on mine), don't think it will make a difference (my guess is they will come up with a different layout to take advantage of more space). For reading novels, though, I'll stick with the K2.

Soaking in Samsara : Time for a Gratitude Post

Ha - if by "demolish" you mean "have almost caught up to even", then I suppose yes, your dart team is hitting its stride. :-)

Feld Thoughts : Automattic Acquires IntenseDebate

I've been using Wordpress myself - I think you'll like it. Can't wait for the presumed intense debate integration!

http://blogs.newsgator.com/newsgator_widget_blog/ : NetNewsWire iPhone Application is Very Popular

Tue, 23 Sep 2008 13:45:00 +0000

I agree! I can assure you guys I send Brent at least 2 emails a day about this feature. Ok, maybe not every day, but it's definitely on the sometime-soon list. :-)

Where do we send a pitch? :-)

Feld Thoughts : Foundry Group Raises $225 Million Early Stage VC Fund

Oops - I meant to say congrats, also. :-)

printf("congratulations!");

Feld Thoughts : Foundry Group Raises $225 Million Early Stage VC Fund

Tue, 26 Feb 2008 07:53:40 +0000

I think the old skool among us would definitely write it in C:

printf("Foundry Group Raises $225 Million Early Stage VC Fund");

but with .NET taking over the Windows development world, we'd end up with:

Console.WriteLine("Foundry Group Raises $225 Million Early Stage VC Fund");

Real men would write this in assembly...unfortunately, I've forgotten too much assembly to even give it a shot. :-(

Feld Thoughts : My New MacBook Pro and Exchange

Fri, 30 Nov 2007 10:18:23 +0000

Brad, I just use the built-in Leopard mail app. The only thing it doesn't do well is calendar integration - but I've finally worked out a system to keep my calendar in sync, and it's only slightly less convenient than Outlook was.

VC Adventure : Mac Attack

Fri, 30 Nov 2007 09:48:35 +0000

I did the same thing a month ago...my Vista laptop is still sitting on my desk, but I think I've only turned it on twice or so in the last month. The Mac is working great!

Feld Thoughts : Help Me With My New MacBook Pro

Mon, 19 Nov 2007 15:07:05 +0000

Funny, I did this same thing a couple of weeks ago...although I didn't destroy my Windows laptop. :-) Here's the stuff I'm using, as a recent Windows convert:

Safari 3 (built into Leopard) - I used to hate Safari, but IMHO they totally nailed it in this version. Totally rocks, so I don't need no steeenking Firefox.

NetNewsWire - of course. :-)

iWork 08 - I've been fighting hard trying not to use Office 2004, and the iwork apps have made this pretty seamless.

Mail and iCal - we're an Exchange shop, so all my stuff was there. Since I didn't love Entourage 2004, I've been using Mail (connected to Exchange), and iCal and Address Book. Never really got address book working the way it should with Exchange, but I just synced it from my iPhone and use it as a master now. And iCal is a bit of a hassle using with a whole office that's using Outlook/Exchange, but I've got it down to the minimum pain possible now I think. I like it - for example, searching in Mail is super-fast.

VMWare Fusion - I hardly ever use it, but it totally works.

Verizon EVDO - didn't even have to install the Verizon software, the Expresscard support is built in. Super cool.

Photoshop and Lightroom - for my photography stuff.

Adium - I like iChat better, but adium talks to MSN.

Twitterific.

I think that's most of what I use on a daily basis...but I've gotten some good ideas from this post!
