UniIsland··on JazzKeys: Type to improvise Jazz music
Agreed. Great concept and execution.

The "share" feature shows that it also implemented a format to serialize the typing sequence and stores it on server.

If I still write letters to friends, I'd definitely start using this from now on.

p.s. It also records your typos and deletions.

p.p.s. While I was typing this poem, my wife thought that I was listening to a new jazz song and asked me what song it was.

It appears nobody noticed the "share" feature, which records your typing sequence and replays it. I think it's amazing to use this feature to write letters. Try reading this poem to see what I mean.

UniIsland··on China state paper urges Internet rethink to gag foes
update on the numbers, i just searched google and found that sina weibo recruited 1000+ people in march 2011. i was being a little bit too conservative in the first place. cant really estimate how many they've employed since then.

let's see what's happening in china. a huge team merely for content censoring is required if your website ever displays any user inputed text. that's why china's twitter copycat companies have to employ several hundreds people(while twitter has 2-digits employees), and quite often make their entire designing / marketing department join the censoring team temporarily.

The LEGO argument may make people believe that linux is just a toy and not for production uses. Apart from that, it's quite simple and straight forward. BTW, we do have pre-built, highly customized distributions offered for those who likes things that work out of box.
