Google now shows me an option to push things in my search results to the top. It's an interesting choice. Doesn't it seem like it's inviting problems.

Cloud this, Cloud that – the word cloud is clearly an overhyped word and reminds me of the beginning of the hype around hosted models and ASPs (application service providers) in the late 90s and the term SAAS today.

I read about the 40% drop in property values in Dubai , and it reminded me of a model I use to think about bubbles: The slope of the rise is (negative) the slope of the fall. The crazyness in the world (Dubai, hedge funds, etc.) is going to come down pretty fast & hard.

Lessons Learned by Eric Ries Wednesday, November 19, 2008 Lo, my 1032 subscribers, who are you?
