SDI's iHome2go iH19 and iH26 iPod docks {Engadget}
Apr 8th 2007 10:54PM I found your post looking for info about ihome2go - we just bought one, and when we listen to our iPod on it, there's a squeak and a hiss in the background of most of the songs. It shounds like it's recording the iPod onto a cassette that needs some machine oil and then playing it from the cassette. It just makes no sense to me. Any ideas what might be wrong? PS, check out litmocracy, my website.

Aug 6th 2005 8:11PM About 5 years ago, I started studying how machines collect information about quality, and I discovered that we missed the boat. We dont find quality. We find popularity. Popularity is certainly lucrative, but is it really what were after? [more...]

Aug 3rd 2005 4:10PM Ahh the search for quality. Good topic! I deployed We-Rank.com about a week ago. It allows members to register ranked lists of the comments to a blog. It then automatically combines the orderings of all the members into a single ordering. If each comment promotes a separate blog, then the results of the combined ordering would provide you with a Top N list, based not on links or sources, but on the raw judgments of members. It would be simple for me to add logic to remove the worst entry each time a 501st entry was added. New comments appear at the top of the list because they have not yet been judged as having less quality than any other blog. As soon as one member says some other comment is better, the placement of that comment is shifted accordingly. So in the search for quality, do you want to wait until bloggers have read, responded to, and linked to a blog to recognize it as having more quality? I think it would be quicker to wait for them to simply say they like it better than some others. If this is sufficient for the prize, it's available at http://we-rank.com/?p=10
