Good read: Android versus iPhone Development: A Comparison

As expected, Android developer tools win, hands down.

The perfect image of online media dragging old media (newspapers) into the 21st century
Gotta love the expression (?) on the prey....

Come on Korea! You can do better than 23,000 FF 3.5 downloads!
This real-time FF downloader is great fun to watch. But South Koreans need to update!

On Korean/non-Korean couples and their eating habits
Well, this Korea Herald piece is nothing special, reporting-wise, but I would like to take issue with one thing:
"Another couple, Hyo-jung and Evan McCaw said they have similar experiences.
She loves meatloaf, which they make once a month, and he enjoys exploring the *underbelly* of Korean cuisine (from a foreigner's perspective), like dog meat and live octopus."
[Emphasis added]

Since when is a delicacy (or at the very least a traditional dish) as mentioned above in any way the "underbelly" of cuisine? I guess I'm biased (I eat them both).

@nalm has an interesting chart of US citizens using social media
It's quite dramatic. Sorry, I don't know the source.

Zuckerberg interview on Wired.com
Wired.com: Facebook’s focus on real time streams reminds me a little bit of TV before Tivo. If you’re a business and you want people to see your brand and have a relationship with your brand in peoples’ stream, you have to be looking at the stream at specific times. Doesn’t that mean you have to start selling ads like networks do – based on the size and type of audience at different times of the day?
Zuckerberg: There are different modalities. One is a real time element. There’s also the highlights and news feeds components. And then you have search or behaviors where the person’s actively seeking out some information. We want to make that available to them very, very clearly. So, if I type in tools, then, I think that there’s a good opportunity to show you things that your friends are connected to.

Twitter for busy people
Pretty interesting. I'm certainly busy enough to use it.
