“This is Erving Goffman, your president. He would rather hear himself speaking than being spoken about.” Having said those two sentences, I was to shut up and sit down.

Distributed/federated video hosting platform. The individuals sites don't look very established yet but the software seems like a good idea. Better than just hosting static files though?

Nice. Probably not much a surprise for anybody who has read or thought much about cooperation, deliberation, consensus, etc.

"The review reinforces the common mistake (apparently made by Lubet too) that Ethnography’s role is to furnish us with hard-to-obtain facts about the social world. But is that what we get from the great ethnographers like Geertz or E. Goffman? No. Rather, great ethnography offers us deep, general *insights* See e.g., how Homans uses Whyte. *Thats* why Whyte is a classic."

This one is awesome.

Nice article on A/B testing.

This review was bad but should have been worse IMHO. '“Why would anyone go to such lengths to get hold of a memoir whose essential purpose was to entertain?” (Oh, perhaps because people don’t find it very entertaining to be depicted as charlatans.) Such faux naïveté is unbecoming in someone as savvy as Lyons is, and makes him seem, in the end, an unreliable narrator of his own story.'

Pando also published a hatchetjob on Dan Lyon! What goes around comes around?

Hubspot's founders response to Dan Lyon's book.
