How some app developers are experimenting with new ways to support offline & low connectivity use; lowering data demands could be key in growing app ecosystem.

Twitter's co-founders announced a new partner company for Obvious Corp today, called Lift. They disclosed very few details. But a previous iteration offers lots of clues.

I've got a problem it can solve: I live in a cloud of darkness, an infinite body of history and information all around me - yet just out of sight. I'll pay for it, too.

Note those two posts were authored by two different people at RWW. I wrote this one but not the one you reference 3 months ago.

I cannot disclose RWW's rate of pay but as I said in that post, the higher you go in that continuum, the more likely you are to be a consultant vs a journalist. And we are journali…

I can't speak for those other blogs but at ReadWriteWeb (the most fabulous blog on the internet, if you ask me) we did some polling and ran this post on pay rates 3 years ago http:…

Dear HN folks, Marshall Kirkpatrick, lead writer at RWW here. Just wanted to let you know that we're reading your thoughts here and looking into this situation. We like HN not just…

it's nice. would be even nicer if there was some way to cache tweets from my friends so I could search history. searching current can be done pretty well with Tweetdeck, I think. G…

Dude, check Twitter and the Etherpad blog post. Both are FULL of comments from people who feel very similarly. I'm reporting on this from a perspective that a lot of people share. …

Wah wah wah. A stupid comment from a fanboy. I don't try to capitalize on the news for traffic, I report on the news in unique ways that ad value - sucka.

NYT coverage has zero discussion of data standards or interoperability. that's the story, imho

that's a great idea

a solid RSS strategy is subscribing to key news sources in your field, your competitors' blogs and search results, keyword searches, thought leaders and in the enterprise, internal…
