“ This is a once-in-a-half-century, probably once-in-a-century type of event. I think the argument has got to be that there are certain types of institutions which are so fundamental to the functioning of the movement of savings into real investment in an economy that on very rare occasions — and this is one of them — it’s desirable to prevent them from liquidating in a sharply disruptive manner.

Alan Greenspan in the New York Times

I think that Greenspan’s quote hits at a cause for real fear: if the institutions that shepherd money into the businesses that drive growth in the economy cease to exist, the economy will cease to exist. With AIG on the ropes, many of the largest institutions that facilitate liquidity to drive growth are in dire straits. This week is sure to be an interesting one.

The implication being that open markets aren’t capable of self-regulation? If the market dictates that liquidation of certain financial institutions is necessary, shouldn’t we let that happen?

“ Of course, what holds most projects back from revising content is that it’s difficult, time-consuming work. It takes coordination, lots of buy-in, and tons of time to really re-think how to present your business or organization in a succinct fashion.

“ I think this is why so much of the work that comes from large companies is so mediocre. It gets specified by someone and executed by someone else, with feedback from someone else and final say from someone else. It’s just a big mediocre mess. To make something really beautiful, you have to treat it like a lover. It has to be personal.

Dear Tumblr Staff

sid05:

After testing different application, I am sure that tumblr could be the best application for lifestreaming. Just few things are missing:

  1. a tag to insert the thumbnail of the videos.
  2. a post type navigation
  3. Improve the tagging function , self-tagging some posts and use TagAsClasses to applicate to real tags (and this would resolve point number 2)

add these few things and (for me) you are perfect!

thanks a lot
marco

It sounds like you’re referring to Sweetcron, and I agree, there are only a few things keeping tumblr from being the perfect lifestream app.
