Xanga

I got an Daily Feedback Report from Xanga. I don’t even know I had an account there. After trying several usernames and passwords I got in, turn out my Xanga name is andrewyng. HAHA! Apparently I registered about 2 years ago so I could search something.

Anyway, I got the email coz some chick with a web cam left a message in my Xanga guestbook. I’m sure it was just a spider that goes through all Xanga guestbooks and leave messages to advertise her cam site. I went there and she’s actually not bad looking!! I’m not linking to it coz it’s sorta borderline pr0n, I’m sure you perv can find the link yourself…

I feel so young that I actually am a Xangan. I don’t really understand why people use it, it sucks, can’t teenagers tell that TypePad is way better? More often the not I can’t even see the text in their Xanga pages, the background music is usually pretty anonying coz I can’t stop it from playing in Safari. Maybe I’m getting old, I’d rather use RSS and better blog site-software. With RSS feeds I keep up with all my friends’ blogs easily, I trackback or make comments easily. Xanga actually has RSS feeds but of course they don’t tell you as they didn’t bother embedding ads in the RSS feeds like Feedburner does, so they lose money if people start using RSS readers to read the free blogs on their site. Well, enough ranting about Xanga…

Well, I think the $100 512MB Shuffle is the real seller

I agree that the $199 4GB mini is a better deal than the 1GB Shuffle, but the big iPods are way better deals if you care about GB/dollar.

I believe research and focus group have shown that $100 is the sweet spot for consumers. They don’t look at GB/dollar, as most of them really don’t need more than 512MB.

Now, it will be interesting when flash prices come down so they can sell the 1GB Shuffle for $100.
