I'm traveling this week, posting may be light. If not nonexistent :) Powerline speculate that with the results in Florida there will be a Run on the Bank; and Giuliani will withdraw from the race, possibly positioning himself to be McCain's VP running mate. I could live with that. Set your Tivo! Tonight Mythbusters will air their recreation and analysis of the airplane on a conveyor belt puzzle (Wednesday at 9PM EST). [ via Kottke ] BTW David Pogue wrote a great analysis of this problem a year ago. The death of influentials? Clive Thompson ponders whether "influentials" - who are so charismatic and well-connected that they can start or accelerate trends - have less influence than before, given online communications. I'm not sure. I think some people have become more influential. Clive Thompson himself might be an example :) Argh! Joel Spolsky notes :CueCat is back. "The number of dumb things going on here exceeds my limited ability to grok all at once. I'm a bit overwhelmed with what a feeble business idea this is." Yes, even Google can have a bad idea, in fact, they seem to be having more and more of them as they grow...
