Wow! SearchMe.com is like Google, except its 3D! You search for anything you want and then you can browse through the results in the form of screenshots. It reminds me a bit of SpaceTime.com (which I think is very cool btw).
Before I actually used it, I thought that there was now way that I would use this thing on a day to day basis, but it actually is a really good way to search! The only gotcha is that their database isn’t as big as Google’s database Let’s hope they can get there fast
btw, searchme is a Sequoia backed company (so was Google).
chide.it is my latest startup. It is in essence a community based on criticism. The inspiration for this came from the article that valleywag wrote about me a while back. I realized that people really enjoy criticizing others. I also thought that it would be really great if there was an efficient way to tell the difference between baseless and constructive criticisms. If there was a tool to help promote constructive criticisms, it would have the potential to help improve a lot of what is out there in the real world.
The goal of chide.it is to give people a chance to become critics on topics of interest to them. These criticisms in turn will benefit the topics being criticized (assuming we do a good job at identifying the constructive criticisms). The website is still in its very early stages and will get better week by week. If you’d like to test out the site, please go ahead (signups are open)…
btw, we’re eating our own dog food… feel free to chide chide.it here
Is the 5000 friend limit on Facebook a myth? not really. Renowned Silicon Valley blogger Robert Scoble, reached this limit a long time ago. Mark Cuban (billionaire owner of the Dallas Mavericks) just reached the limit. Jeff Pulver has about 4,200 friends and is fast approaching the limit. I would’ve assumed that with the weight that their names carried, exceptions could be made for them? Maybe 5,000 friends is all they need?
Let’s hope they can get there fast
