<p>&ldquo;So if you take Wikipedia as a kind of unit, all of Wikipedia, the whole project--every page, every edit, every talk page, every line of code, in every language that Wikipedia exists in--that represents something like the cumulation of 100 million hours of human thought. … And television watching? Two hundred billion hours, in the U.S. alone, every year. Put another way, now that we have a unit, that's 2,000 Wikipedia projects a year spent watching television.&rdquo; &mdash; Clay Shirky</p>

<p>&ldquo;If the pristine musicality of the first version and the rich sonority of the second situate the simple melody in a sound world that connects it with the unpretentious yet satisfying harmonizations that serve as part of the history of the carol as a genre, the almost ludicrously facile approach to the final version denudes the melody of nuance, revealing it in all its banality; these are the trivial and barking tones of the modern insipid notion of Christmas that the Peanuts special deprecates.&rdquo; &mdash; Chadwick Jenkins</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p><tt>&lt;vito&gt; were all the bloggers down on the ipod when it first came out?<br/>&lt;vito&gt; or did we not have blogs back then<br/>&lt;vito&gt; I remember Slashdot being down on it<br/>&lt;luser&gt; don&#39;t recall, you&#39;re right about slashdot being down on it<br/>&lt;luser&gt; &quot;iPoop... iCry. I was so hoping for something more.&quot;<br/>&lt;luser&gt; &quot;Great just what the world needs, another freaking MP3 player. Go Steve! Where&#39;s the Newton?!&quot; <br/>&lt;vito&gt; BusinessWeek called the Kindle the iPod of books and I think everyone&#39;s forgetting that the original iPod was kinda assy, and the current rev, several years later, is orgasmic or whatever. I think the Kindle is the first-gen iPod of ebooks. It&#39;ll jumpstart the market just like the original iPod did.<br/>&lt;vito&gt; Everyone&#39;s comparing iPod of books to the current rev, which is dumb.<br/>&lt;luser&gt; &quot;hey - heres an idea Apple - rather than enter the world of gimmicks and toys, why dont you spend a little more time sorting out your pathetically expensive and crap server line up? or are you really aiming to become a glorified consumer gimmicks firm?&quot;<br/>&lt;vito&gt; haha<br/>&lt;luser&gt; way to be prescient, albeit completely wrong<br/>&lt;luser&gt; &quot;$400 for an Mp3 Player! I&#39;d call it the Cube 2.0 as it wont sell, and be killed off in a short time...and it&#39;s not really functional.&quot;<br/>&lt;luser&gt; &quot;No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.&quot;<br/>&lt;luser&gt; One of the &quot;Top Five Worst Tech Gifts to get for Christmas in 2001&quot; - TechTarget<br/>&lt;vito&gt; the original ipod?<br/>&lt;luser&gt; apparently<br/>&lt;vito&gt; that&#39;s classic<br/>&lt;luser&gt; so yeah, i think you&#39;re right<br/>&lt;luser&gt; people forget that it took some time for the ipod to take off<br/>&lt;luser&gt; they didn&#39;t break 5M units sold in a quarter till like 4 years later<br/>&lt;luser&gt; yeah<br/>&lt;luser&gt; ok, like 3 years i guess<br/>&lt;luser&gt; first data point is Q1 2002<br/>&lt;luser&gt; but they don&#39;t break 10M total sales till Q1 2005<br/>&lt;luser&gt; then they sell like 80 million in the next 2 years<br/>&lt;luser&gt; also i don&#39;t know that kindle will necessarily be the next ipod<br/>&lt;luser&gt; but it&#39;s certainly too early to write it off based on the first model<br/>&lt;luser&gt; especially since i&#39;m sure amazon has lots of money to continue development<br/>&lt;vito&gt; well, I think the whole sony reader is a portable book, kindle is a portable bookstore thing is important. I don&#39;t think Sony is going to make an ebook walkman, and you&#39;ve got Apple with the wifi music store now.<br/></tt></p>
