8/30    Do you guys have good ideas on increasing the readership and
        the participation on motd? With fierce competition from newsgroups,
        Yahoo groups, friendster & orkut network, and many other facilities,
        how can we keep our unique 70's style of newsgroup going for
                                                 \_ http://ucb.org.csua
        decades? Serious responses please. Thanks.
        \_ Does it really need more participation?  I don't think I'd want to
           read much more traffic than it gets now.  -- FT job haver
           \_ Seconded.  I think we have enough traffic.
              \_ Enough traffic, but not enough variety. ;)
        \_ I think we should turn automatic motd display back on for new
           members.
           \_ I think this by far the simplest and most effective method.
              The motd is dominated by old farts. It's time to get new blood.
              jvarga, help?
        \_ Hey, kchang: how about adding an RSS 2.0 or Atom feed to KAIS Motd?
           \_ this will only increase the motd addiction for existing users.
              it's like adding more nicotine in cigarettes. it won't increase
              the number of suckers who are interested in smoking.

7/15    Anyone else think Twitter is incredibly stupid and that people over
        age 40 who use it, Facebook, and who text message incessantly (versus
        a, I dunno, phone call - hate calling someone and getting a text
        back) are trying to recapture lost youth and seem hip in some way?
        My sister-in-law does all of the above, even going so far as to
        text her kid while she is away. I asked if she has called. She

11/1    Intelligient writeup of Google's OpenSocial platform by Marc
        Andreesen: http://blog.pmarca.com/2007/10/open-social-a-n.html
        I got a chance to start working with OpenSocial before the public
        release as part of my job at Slide, and it's been a pleasure to work
        with.  If you're looking for an interesting new platform to hack on,
        I'd suggest giving OpenSocial a look.  Incidentally, Slide is hiring.

8/29    So after changing a few pics on friendster, I got 2 emails from two
        different women. One works at Coca Cola down in Africa, and the
        other one with a generic hello, eager for a reply from me. I didn't
        post anything spectacular or anything and I'm suspecting that this
        is a spam attempt. Has anyone gotten a similar response after
        changing pics or specs? Thanks.
