Joshua Schachter's latest

Not sure how I feel about moving the conversation off twitter completely. I think I'd still like my comments to be posted to twitter in their entirety, not as a link to another site.
Right now it seems like a simplified message board that authenticates with Twitter and pushes a link to your feed when you participate in a thread.

Already fed up of the auto tweets from this spammy app filling my twitter timeline
Joshua Schachter's latest project. Beware - submitting a comment will auto-post a notification to your Twitter account.
what with the dots?
Joshua, I'm sorry for posting your regret of selling to Y. I hope it did not distress you too much to see it. I should not have done it.
You didn't do anything wrong. A newsworthy public comment made by a public person (certainly 'newsworthy' and 'public' in the context of a site called 'Hacker News').
What Joshua (enabled by PG) did was simply silly. Don't add to the silliness by brown-nosing.

Not brownnosing. I should have realized that if I wasn't comfortable posting this under my real name I shouldn't have posted it at all.
Definitely newsworthy and interesting, however.

It's a reddit thing. Not polite here.
Let's assume that's the case (although it's a strange custom because, again, it's quite conceivable someone comments something that in itself is newsworthy and comment-on-able).
If it's impolite, presumably the magical social filter will take care of it by downvoting or ignoring. Calling in the heavy artillery for something trivial like that is still ham-handed and unwarranted. You can't have said something like that unaware that it will end up all over the place anyway, as it did.

no idea - I think it was a finger habit from always typing del.icio.us. Edited title to dedot.
Lightweight appearance, but it's not that good as it could be. Try more spacing between comments, and (maybe) some other format for indicating authors instead of "username →". Message counts also definitely need a different style, e.g. bold or italics, or -- better -- gray color.
Very light and old-schooly. Nice.
I think I just scored the best "# of lines of code to techcrunch article" ratio ever. (208 lines of code thus far) http://twitter.com/joshu/status/3248158809
Ahh, like identi.ca's Conversation view:

The only winners in the microblogging-service feature- war are the users.

I like it. I like the Twitter spam that will follow it. Thumbs up. :D
