Making stuff as a founder of Avocado. Former music-maker. Tuna melt advocate. Started Google Reader. (But smarter people made it great.)

Connecting the dots [links and stuff]

Starred these.
  • TypeInstanceHomonym, Martin Fowler's Bliki

  • From a sarcastic riff about a future fictional Zach Braff film: "The Arcade Fire comes on in this really dramatic scene where I am laying on the hood of a car as it goes through a car wash, and I don't even get off or put on a poncho because I'm so sad that who cares."

    Disclosure: The picture topping the link is probably NSFW for various meanings of 'work.' And I enjoy Scrubs.


  • Downloaded. Relatedly: I love Firebug. Yes, I love software. Yes, it can be considered a healthy love. Yes, if you get just the right doctor.

  • There's been a ton of pixels spilled in support of our new feature. I was hoping there'd be more reaction to the fact that Jeff and his team were deeply involved in its design. If you like Reader Trends you should go thank Lord Mihai and the MeasureMap gang.
