    I was going to comment on the nerve it must take to mess with your advertiser (OptionsXpress) like that, but by the end of it I was sold!

      Om, I hope that someday soon we too can become facebook buddies.

      But seriously, The Landlady on funnyordie was pretty damn funny.

          nice job Om and Lindsay

          I loved the comment “of course I’ll be your friend”

          great stuff.

            om - Good tip.
            I am buying Sprint (some one will buy them….).
            If this happens I will buy you a beer.

              Om needs sleep no. A sign of his tireless tech blog work.

              The best

                  So Wallstrip has moved on to tech journalists. That’s a dangerous road. I love the visionaries and the entrepreneurs (even the odd ones)because at least those guys have created something. But tech journalists? Oh, boy. But I like Malik’s entrepreneurial spirit. A good move since Business 2.0 is a sinking ship. The only thing he is right about is the FCC, but that’s an obvious one.

                    The options express dude is not reciprocating with his own seductive voice so I really question his sexuality.

                      Wired is obviously a genius publication and yes lindsay should be getting a raise - wooo :)

                      maximo - the point of talking to Om is he was ground floor for the real bubble and came out with a good sense of what it was like and who the inners may be going forward.

                      • maximo zeledon One year ago

                        I see your point, Howard. I’m just not into pundits. And the guy seems nice. But I don’t think we are even near a bubble today. Not like th last tme anyway. The problem I have with OM and the likes is the micro perspective they take on technology and innovation. That’s what happens when you live in the Bay Area for too long. I lived there for 20 years and you end up thinking that’s the center of the universe when in fact it is just a fart spec on the map. This thing is much more global this time around. But I’m willing to bet money will dry up first before good ideas do this time around. Last time we have tons of money and really bad ideas.

                          Why are people being so mean to the Options Xpress CEO? You guys are f%$& our chances to get a year of free trades if we open an account via Wallstreet.

                            No argument on silicon valley at all.

                            Marketing and creative ads and distribution separate all the copycat web apps and new york is the place to be in my book.

                              Maximo

                              Your account size would not get free trades at walmart :)

                                Stay tuned for options express dude 2.0

                                they are advertsising visionaries :)

                                Long straddles ?

                                  Ouch! Be nice to the poor Horward.

                                    maximo and howard: get a room.

                                      I’ve been slacking off watching these, but glad to see you are still going strong. Oh and Lindsay can mess with me like that anytime. You can all make fun of me afterwards too, I don’t care.
