As always friend, count me in on the Rob and Josh fan club. I'm sorry for your loss, I'm excited about what you've learned from this experience, and I'm awed by your courage. Peace, brother.

"I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Dude, bro. Square-pants should just relax a little. Hater's probably rocking a sweet recumbent and a beard.

Who knew there was such animosity towards peace loving Buddhist hipsters pent up in DJ double A? Next, a rap to come out of it -mix master mike

hmm...that's weird. well, i just sent an email to the guy who built intense debate. i'm sure he'll have it fixed shortly. oh, wait, you can't do that with blogger? they don't have support emails? oh. yeah, i agree that it would be cool if nike acknowledged the work that's gone before them.

For some reason Intense Debate isn't showing your comment... maybe you should try Blogger - they have great commenting features. I kid! I kid! From the feed I know what your comment is, and you make a good point. It's still kinda sad to me that Nike is getting all the credit for a project a community of designers created on their own - but I have to admit it's Nike who is using it in an inspiring way.

i don't think the main story here is the technology, but instead its inspiring and clever application in the tour

That wasn't actually their idea - it was an open source project developed years ago. The fact that a corporate entity has recreated it and called it their own is causing some people some frustration: http://hackaday.com/2009/07/09/chalkbot-vs-graffi...

McCabe's BBQ is my favorite BBQ restaurant, but Ill take either your uncle Kirby's or my dad's any day of the week...and tomorrow it will be my dad's!!!!!!! Missed you at the beach, (no BBQ there, for sure) but I thought about you and Kit while watching my own brother/sister duo ride the waves with Hutch and Porter.

I have to disagree. Shealy's is the best barbecue in the state. Mmmm... what I would pay to have barbecue right now..

For some reason, that map cracked me up. I think it is the very technical breakdown of regions, or the colors representing the sauces, or just the subject matter. Thanks for sharing! I don't miss SC BBQ, but I do miss Mac and Cheese.

I'll concede Linux and Wikipedia, but I'm still skeptical that the mass innovation will be as glamorous as that video portrays. Take the switch from "pyramids" to "communities" for instance. Have you noticed how communities tend to eventually block out of information and ideas instead of discovering them? Both Digg and Reddit started out as sites that explored the web and found new and exciting things. After a while however, a group of committed users took over both of these networks and now effectively control what hits the homepage according to their ideology. Reddit and Digg have almost created philosophies which filter what gets to the top. To some extent this has happened with Wikipedia too, with a small group of committed users controlling the majority of the editing. I'm not saying the revolution isn't coming (or isn't here), but I do think there are serious questions that need to be asked in regards to whether we are generating streams of information or streams of noise. What is our signal-to-noise ratio, and has it gotten better? I haven't had time to read the article from your last post yet, I'll try to do that.
