Baseball is the best sport in the world, period. I would rather watch a meaningless game between two teams I care nothing for than the world's most important hockey match. My favorite team for more than 20 years is the Oakland A's, and I stick with them even in the ugly years. (Like this one) 5 months, 3 weeks ago

Social media, blogging and Twitter, as well as three people I admire:

You are the future of Simler.

At this stage of any startup or social network's life, a project may have a direction, and momentum, but it takes input, feedback and action from the site's members to help give it a real boost. Simler is very cool. It's got some easy to use functionality, some great ways to find "Simler" people, and awesome topics-based discussion.

What do you want it to be? What could be improved that would make you not only use the site a ton, but to tell all your friends about it?

Let me know. I promise ~MrG and team are listening. 2 months, 3 weeks ago

The brown monkeys swing with red tags!
Promising conversation without lags!
Like TV? Baseball? Top Ramen?
Then we've got something in common.

Social networks are not all the same.
Gathering friends is more than a game.
If it's similar people you like,
Then as riding a bike...
You'll take to Simler for fame. 2 months, 2 weeks ago

Apple has, in my mind, always had platform leadership over Microsoft (Windows) in terms of quality. With Windows 7, Microsoft is doing pretty well, but what changes everything, in my opinion, is the Web. Now, the value Apple used to bring is somewhat lessened. In your opinion, if you are a Mac person, what is keeping you on the platform? Are you thinking about Google Chrome OS at all? I know I'm at least peeking. 2 months, 3 weeks ago

One of the best benefits I've ever gained as an early adopter tech geek blogger here in the US has been early access to Spotify. The streaming music service that is gaining traction in the UK is just fantastic. It's rare when I can't find a specific song, artist, etc and the music and discovery is incredible. I just find bands I like, pick an album and hit play and we're good for a while.

Spotify is the only service I have ever found that has pushed me away from iTunes. Once it hits the US... boom. Should be big. 5 months, 3 weeks ago

Blogging is more than just a hobby. It's your personal brand and can help give people the very best idea of those things you are interested in and what you really care about. While it can be fun to try and break news and analyze news from somewhere else, underneath, it should be personal. Even as new tools are out there "beyond blogging", there's really no substitute. 5 months, 3 weeks ago
