		<description><![CDATA[With just about everyone weighing in on the Facebook acquisition of FriendFeed, I thought I&#8217;d add to the noise and toss in my riveting insight (or lack thereof). First of all, I&#8217;ve no idea what it means. But then, no one else does either &#8212; there is interesting speculation, however. One of the first notions [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Facebook is used by shoals of people (to steal a term Kurt Vonnegut liked to use). Twitter&#8217;s growth is always &#8220;surprising&#8221; (although, by now, the real surprise would be if it stopped). For me, however, what is most interesting is who is using Twitter. It&#8217;s older people driving the growth whereas conventional wisdom tells us [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had an interesting back-and-forth on Twitter with Andrew Keen (@ajkeen) after he posted a tweet that roughly read, &#8220;Blogs aren&#8217;t dying &#8211; they&#8217;re dead.&#8221; I tweeted back something about them not being dead and included a link to an earlier post of mine that sorta, kinda (but not really) touched on the subject. Anyway, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m working with a team developing a new social networking tool tentatively called Crotch. We expect to compete with Facebook and Twitter. Given the rapid growth of both, and the deep roots each has developed in a short time, you might think it&#8217;s crazy to try to compete in the same space. You would be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two thoughts on the hubbub around Facebook&#8217;s terms and conditions and the backtracking on the revised version: 1) What if Facebook users wrote their own terms and conditions and include in it an assertion that not only do they own their own content, they own Facebook? Surely that would be as valid as Facebook&#8217;s attempt [...]]]></description>
