Yeah, Todd I've considered moving this blog to Koken, it looks fantastic.
Some ideas around Flickr sets
I wish @flickr set pages featured larger photos. So much untapped potential to wow. — Rion Nakaya (@riondotnu) May 1, 2013 Rion totally nails something that has been sticking in my craw for the last six months or so. Ever since the rollouts of features that vastly improved the Flickr exper...
I agree that Google's photo display on that page looks nice, but just about everything else they do poorly. So there's no sense of community or even other people (every Google service has a cold, calculated feel to it instead of one designed by other humans), so it's unlikely I'll ever store my photos there.

Yeah, the /detail/ version always felt like a secret level of Flickr and I used to share that with people when I had a large set of photos they could scan through, but I found people didn't know there were multiple pages and I'd have to remind them to page through each set.

Yeah, I totally am.
The Veronica Mars Kickstarter is going to be a huge success
I've never watched an episode of Veronica Mars, but I can already tell this Kickstarter is going to be huge, wildly surpass their goals, and become a film fans will love. How do I know? Because: Hit and Run. This was a little movie written, directed, and starring Kristen Bell's husband Dax S...
Yeah, looking at my email, it looks like we exchanged email about my PVRblog back in 2004. Cool to see where you work now, I'm a big fan of Redfin.
LinkedIn is a Virus
So today this happened: With three clicks, I (accidentally) asked 1138 people to connect on LinkedIn using their import feature. Goddammit, I hate you LinkedIn.— Matt Haughey (@mathowie) March 6, 2013 And I feel like I should explain how this went down, because the event and the aftermath have b...
I'm pretty sure it was anyone that ever emailed me with a gmail address, so maybe you never used one to contact me?

Yeah, I have a running joke with my wife how pretty much every movie and TV show we watch features "regular" people in places worth at least a million dollars and how ridiculous it usually looks.
But yeah, their money problems seemed so silly given their crazy lifestyle, I guess the only good joke in it about that was Graham Parker saying "you need to have a small nut" but overall I thought they were only semi-likeable jerks that were stupid with money.
This is 40
I wanted to like This is 40 more than I did. I'd heard positive reviews from friends and heard Judd Apatow give a great interview on Jesse's Bullseye (embeded below). The thing I heard in many reviews was how this comedy struck a common thread with people turning 40, and as a guy that is barel...

I think it has a ton of potential to become a publishing platform for significant writings from people that don't have websites or work in the industry. The tools are fantastic, the editor you write posts in has no equal and I think with a little guidance and direction along with tons of growth it could make a huge impact on publishing.
Best tech of 2012
I wrote up my favorite technology bits of 2012 over at Medium (Medium itself should have made my list, it's quickly becoming my favorite place to write longer pieces).
Off the top of my head, definitely the two part Louie CK interview is amazing. It's like 3 or 4 hours total, but they haven't spoken to each other in like 15 years and they hated each other at some point so over the course of this long interview, they come to terms with it and leave in a much better place.
Listening to podcasts piecemeal: huffduffer & Instacast
For the past few years, there's been a site called huffduffer (started by Jeremy Keith) that lets you link to bits of audio you find online and it shows you popular items across the service. I've always thought of it as Instapaper or delicious for audio, but I never found myself considering...
Thanks Jeremy, I'm just sorry it took me this many years to find a killer use for huffduffer. I could tell it was something special on day one, just took me a while to figure out how to use it in a workflow.

Heiser Farms thanks!
Thanks everyone for coming out and having a blast out on the farm this past Saturday. We had 365 racers (full results here) blasting through the trails all day long. It was sunny and warm, making for a dusty, fun day. There are some photos from the day as well as the amazing recap videos below Kent Johnston's video recaps of the day: Junior Cyclocross Series video: Thanks all for coming out and supporting cyclocross, we also donated $365 to the Mat Barton Fund.
