Wow! Summify was bought by Twitter and will be shutting down! For time-challenged techies (a.k.a. all of us), Summify took away the repetition factor in Twitter and organized the most relevant stories in a digest format. I hope Twitter has a plan, or someone else will surely step in to fill the gap. http://tcrn.ch/yIwvnz

As far as what your actual score is - it's irrelevant. What matter's are building actual relationships and conversations. I'd rather have a tight knit group of people who I can connect with then a large group that is filled with noise that no message can be heard.

I think these words smack a bit of unoriginality, but at the same time I don't think they necessarily are damaging.

I think QR codes are a way to ask for an immediate action instead of saying.. hey when you get home and hop on your computer, please remember to type in the url code listed on our brochure. We will not roll this out until the fall but I will share the data we receive.
@Rebecca- I agree that they will be wide reaching. I can also see people using them as invitations, it could take people straight to the event details and an RSVP site.

I can sort of envision use at a job fair, kind of like at SxSW, where announcements were made to the attendees, or where there could be contests/quizzes, and first respondent gets a prize (or an interview!). How about in your respective fields, is there an application?

I'm toying around with writing a paper on Kindle vs. Nook vs. iPad. Which do you think you'd get (if you haven't already) and why? I'm a total Nook-lover, for instance. Got it because it is pretty, cheaper, and actually attached to a store (go in and buy vs. mail away). You?

Its an older model but Amazon customer service is unbeatable. I was backpacking Asia at the time and had some issues with Thai sand getting in the device. They overnighted a new one to me when I ended up in Mumbai India for free. In Rajasthan India a camel decided that stepping on my kindle was a good idea, and once again, Amazon overnighted a new one to me (this time it was my fault though so it wasn't for free.)
I have a Kindle and my father has an iPad. I like browsing the internet, but not much else with my iPad. Reading is just amazing on the Kindle and battery life lasts forever.

To be successfull, people need to be able to trust this new payment system.
Questions like "What will happen if I loose my phone?" or "How is the communication protected from being hacked by others?" and "How is my identity protected from being regenerated in some way?"
And the problems only become bigger on Android. As it is open source, someone can make a version of this OS that reveales any secrets in the code for the application.
To tackle all the above, I think it is extremely important that a white paper gets published on how this all works. And that people can actually provide feedback.

I'm sure there were lots of similar questions when credit cards first came into use - people worrying what would happen if someone else got hold of their cards, got their account info, etc. I think all of this will be addressed over time, as use becomes more pervasive. It seems other countries are leading the way on this - I belive Citi started testing these in India/Singapore first, so we'll see when it becomes bigger in the states. I for one am excited - but then, I always forget my purse! :)
