Comment form in News feed? Russell has been doing it for a while and I am jealous. (not that I was already jealous of Russell) I notice that I comment on his posts a lot more. The comment form, though cumbersome, was quite enticing even on frivolous posts. Since blogging to me is lifeless and unfulfilling without interaction with my readers and since people are very stingy with their comments unless goaded, I am really drawn to the idea of having a comment form on my news feed. I investigated further and found that his feed puts out a tabular comment form that is quite simple. I might have to try it out and see how well this works for my news readers. What do you think? Should blog news feeds have small comment forms embedded into them? (See how I have to goad to get you to say something?)

ACM – Beyond Relational Databases Interesting ACM article pointing out some of the obvious requirements of new applications and the weaknesses of RDBMs to fill those needs. The artcile could easily have gone into greater depth on how this niche is being filled. I personally have experience with a variation of B+ trees that is being used in graphical databases for FPS games. One of the sentences that stuck out was “The database must also avoid making decisions about network protocols.” Interesting observation. The only problem I face with this higher level of database abstration is the increased complexity of installation, tweak and management that each additional feature adds to the system. Thanks Simple Thoughts
