From an interview with John Batelle, co-founder of Wired:
CNN: What would others have to do to be the next Google?
JB: First, you have to create an innovation that makes people say, "I've got to use this, this is better than that." That is extremely hard. Search is one of the hardest computer science problems in the world, because basically we are trying to create artificial intelligence so that we can speak with our computer, they can understand us and deliver what we are looking for. That is equivalent to turning your computer into a very intelligent research librarian, which of course is the holy grail of computer science, to create artificial intelligence. So it's not easy, you know. And to make a leap beyond Google and create a better mousetrap requires computer science that hasn't been invented yet.
Yo, John! Sitting right here!
Yo, John! Sitting right here!
Yeah, but you're not sitting on my desk. (Fetching though that would be.)
Julianna, I'm sorry you had a long night in the ER and it's lucky Z was still covered by your insurance. I can't say I wish him pain, but my first thought was, "Dude caught himself a serious dose of negative -ma."
Thanks, you guys.
He's been nice, too, it's just that I don't need to vent when he's nice.
Well hang in there juliana, 2005 is almost over.
I didn't *wish* him pain; I just was petty enough to not feel too bad about it, except as it affected Juliana.

This, exactly. And, as protective mama bear, I know *you* and love *you* and want the best for you.
Hi all.

Apparently I'm a horrible racist.

More later.
What?!? Uh, just, huh??
I am so sorry, Daniel. I'm boggling right beside you.
Oh crap. I'm so sorry Daniel. That's awful.
