MySchool – 4Million Hits brings it down.
So on 7 News they report 4 Million hits brings the myschool website down.
Who talks in hits ever? How could they even record it if the site was down? If they are trying to purport 4 Million people, then thats pretty close to the number of parents in this country I guess, wouldn’t they be at work or not on the Internet…
And these are the people that we’re trusting with the filter…. I just don’t think the govt attracts the right people.. where as Singapore.
iPad
Even thought I don’t mind using my laptop for all the purposes the iPad offers – it’ll definitely be a step in the right direction if it doesn’t melt your legs when using it. Current experience of Apple TV, iPhone, MacBook is they get too damn hot after a while.
Where’s the cam! That would have been a simple build in. More useful than the GPS – I’m not going to be sticking this on my dashboard.. or maybe I would.
Would be good for kids to read the map, or the wife to find a hotel to stop off with.. lots of ideas thinking..
iPhone idea: Lightning Tracker

Would be good to have a site where WE (the customers) tell the BUSINESS what we would like for their products.
i.e. a Foxtel / Austar iPhone remote record.
etc..

Pepsi Gen-Y Person lets loose with camera!
Mildly amusing that @PepsiAustralia‘s twitter person doesn’t realise that every photo she takes is uploading to Twitter or is publicly available. Full gallery of – what looks like a stock sheet, and very strange other pictures are here: http://twitpic.com/photos/pepsiaustralia.
Shame nobody reads this blog yet – could be a good cock-up story in there. Maybe she’ll take some crazy random pics.
The funniest bit is that Coca Cola are advertising on the page. Check it.

Nexus or next-us!
Nice phone…. but looking at my linkedin list – I wonder how many people will have jobs in 10 years with Google as they buy, strangle or swallow everyone in the path.
Back to the phone… what do we like..
Voice – I don’t know if you were on the SMS screen why you’d bother using voice recognition when most of us can just type it in, more accurate and quicker. Also unless your in a silent room will it really work. Or will it annoy the crap out of people on the train. Voice is really good when your either in a call or in the car – when your hands are pre-occupied ideally with the steering wheel.
Sat Nav – cheaper than buying a new one, always will be more up-to-date – linking friends out of your address book is bloody useful and with other apps, i.e. looking at houses to buy in a suburb or trying to find a petrol station, post-office etc. Its the one app that Android has over the iPhone and hope Google release it – why would they bother.
We shall see. Good on them for making it unlocked and Google Voice is a product I’d love to have.
iPhoto beats Picasa and it seems annoying that these cloud photo galleries are not a bit more open… do users really care. I just want my pictures accesible with privacy, in high quality and as back-ups – not too hard. I know people rely on Facebook – but not really hiq.

re: Facebook wants to know what you think
Last year I had the chance to visit the Facebook offices in Palo Alto and wow there’s a lot of people there. Lots of people with their facebook drink bottles, facebook fleece coats and facebook ruck sacks.
At 30 I did feel like I was the oldest person there and I did want to ask them politely what each of them actually did?
On tech-crunch, they are now rolling out a user survey what they think of the new version. I think FB needs to harden up and make a decision based on their experts. Make it personalised. It really isn’t that hard.
I quite like the user who suggested:
There should be no news feed and live feeds combine them and give an option of what to see on the side; past 4 hours, past 12 hours and past 24 hours
Report all news and allow users to select what and what not they want to see such as xx person is now friends with xx, apps, xx person added photos.
Similar to Twitter it feels like unless you login every few hours you miss things – which shouldn’t be the case. These user experiences are pretty obvious – just make them happen.
