Google acquires Jaiku.

A fine microblogging service, but probably more important is the fact that on phones, it's a presence-aware contact list, and that's something darn cool.

"Activity streams and mobile presence are important areas where we believe Google can add a lot of value for users."Gabe Rivera: "I wish it were obvious, but there's no such thing as an unbiased automated news site (or search engine for that matter). Automation doesn't remove bias, it merely obscures it."

In not completely unrelated news, Dave Winer notes: "Feedburner reports that 609K people subscribe to the TechCrunch feed. When I got a prominent link from a TechCrunch piece on September 30, it generated 228 hits [...]."

Something's fishy in the land of completely opaque pseudo-metrics.

Also: Rivva resets"Mit Ernüchterung stelle ich fest, dass 90% der entwickelten Features, wenn überhaupt, dann nur von einer Handvoll Leute genutzt wird." Daniel Kahneman: A Short Course in Thinking about Thinking

Excerpts from a 2-day "master class". I had my first DK encounter when reading Fooled by Randomness (one of only a hand-ful of truly re-settling reading experiences). Affective Forecasting and how bad we're at it is also a topic in Strangers to Ourselves (which I still haven't finished but nevertheless recommend)."As a child, [Charles Berlitz] was raised in a household in which (by his father's orders) every relative and servant spoke to [him] in a different language: he reached adolescence speaking eight languages fluently. In adulthood, he recalled having the childhood delusion that every human being spoke a different language, and wondering why he did not have his own language like everyone else in his household."
