access to information is a good thing :)
is this a detriment?

A 2002 version of StumbleUpon's Learn More page.
From the page: "Often the best sites are the hardest ones to find, and stumbleupon lets you share these gems you come across with other community members."
I think this is the essence of StumbleUpon.

this service poses an interesting challenge for stumbleupon -- it's similar in principle to some of gmc's original research in social search technology.
i think stumbleupon still has competitive advantages: its collection of demographic data, and the network of friends, both of which can be leveraged to deliver better content and more narrowly targeted advertising. that and a library of rated sites.
whether stumbleupon decides to pursue improvements, or allows buzzbox to become the google to stumbleupon's yahoo, is another story.

i can understand why nsa would want to scan all the traffic crossing through main internet hubs... it's a great way to potentially overhear something important. if you look at unencrypted internet traffic as information flowing through a "public space", one might even consider the eavesdropping to be legal and legitimate. unfortunately for most of us citizens, keeping our internet communications and activities private is technically challenging, and in many cases impossible.
headline should read "50% of dial-up users want broadband, but don't have affordable access"
good idea

From the page: "The Internet helps people eliminate irrelevant alternatives"
good work, i think this idea has a future :)
ahh, and here's the original; much more concise
you might consider it humor, but i see it as insight into the thought process of the internet
when the population is extricated from passive entertainment and exposed to media that encourage active collaborative contribution, we can create incredible things together
i'd venture a guess that collaboration will increase the overall rate of scientific advancement by several times
human beings... you gotta love em
coral may be the internet's content-object distribution system of the future
this worked great! my second server is now accessible via a separate public IP address. i upgraded the router firmware to DD-WRT v23 sp2 first though.

good picks! the ones i've seen have been excellent.
this is the neatest way i've ever seen to learn geography
hmm, quite a hole we have to patch. thanks for the article, ar0cketman
hasn't "plagiarism" like this been happening for decades?? in other words, since when have kids stopped emulating their celebrity idols?

Bezos compares the current state of the Internet to the gold rush and the early electric industry. He's a good speaker... I like that guy. :)
