Barack Obama on Community Organizers
sujal 09/04/2008

One of those mocking, derisive but ultimately silly attacks made by both Giuliani and Palin yesterday had to do with mocking Obama’s time as a community organizers. I’ve read many different posts today defending the work community organizers do but Obama, as you might expect, puts the right perspective on the issue. Steve Benen has more background.

(he slightly misspeaks at the start — it was 20 years ago, not 3).

Compete Blog: Connecting the Social Graph: Member Overlap at OpenSocial and Facebook
sujal 11/12/2007

Interesting stuff. None of the numbers surprised me. I’d expect some overlap at the very least, but the asymetry of the Facebook/MySpace overlap stands out. I know MySpace is bigger/older, but it raises a number of questions. Is the difference growing or shrinking, how do they do with “new” social networking users, demo, etc.

blog.pmarca.com: Social networking and the Geocities fallacy
sujal 10/04/2007

Excellent points about what makes a social networking site a social networking site. I can’t believe anyone would compare Geocities to Facebook or MySpace. Yes, they’re both ways to express your personality on the Internet, but that’s it. It’s like comparing a moped and a Ferrari because they’ll both work on roads.
