#2ugh - permanently stuck in the bazaar, low signal to noise and no filter. i'd opt out before letting that become my default experience.

#3Why does this sound like Push 2.0 to me? And it's ironic that he happens to mention books -- that's the antithesis of a "stream." A book would be like a river bank, somewhere to get the hell out of the stream.

#4Whatever he's smoking - he got his startup to the top of Techmeme. Maybe he gave some of that stuff to Gabe. And to the ones retweeting the article.
Whatever his wild prediction of the future is - it sure sounds a lot like twitter. Maybe a more "leanback" version of it? Better self-control over the algorithm (actually a good idea.., but wouldn't it be a lot easier if twitter just did that? Or app.net?) Did the weird stuff he's having let him sleep through twitter? Is he counting on twitter being too reliant on the control of the feed for monetization reasons? That's risky, but bold.
Or can someone explain this to me?
