    I'd prefer if it were a reasonable number, but I'm flexible as to what that means.

    Go 43 and then jump off your bike and yell SUCK IT PHEIDIPPIDES

    I'm going to say 5km for every time someone in the [chat] thread says the word "submariner" in a sentence that makes sense between now and midnight tonight.

    I feel like I'll be going for a short ride tomorrow. :P

    I think that Kickstarter is going to have huge ramifications on the way business works moving forwards, but I really have no idea ultimately of the shape of changes to come.

    Like who the hell thought that youtube and twitter would change the world?

    Youtube moreso than twitter.

    The ability to easily share video with anyone in the world is a huge thing.

    I'm not sure how much I'd say twitter has changed things? I mean, it's just one of many venues to share text online, it's just a popular one, but if twitter wasn't there it's role could easily be fulfilled by other sites like Facebook.

    I wouldn't say twitter has changed anything

    it's like, who knew SMS would be huge?

    Hasn't really changed shit

    Would you really say that SMS hasn't changed anything?

    I mean, look at your life on a day-to-day basis.

    Um...I barely use text messages.

    I mean, past a certain age range texting is basically non-existant, but for people my age if you don't text as one of your primary methods of communication you are in a very small minority.

    It still hasn't changed much, though. If we didn't use texts, we'd use something else.

    This is a little like saying "television hasn't changed much, if we didn't watch television we'd just be listening to the radio!"

    It's more like saying "the telegram hasn't changed much, if we didn't send telegrams, we'd just place a phone call!" Which is insane.

    Texting is a mutant side technology that's technically less sophisticated than what came before, but fills a different need. It's basically wireless email before wireless email was common. Or like a modern two-way pager. It doesn't fit into a notion of "progress".

    Progress isn't linear, DK. Finding new uses for old technology is just as much progress as making new technology.

    Your statement would support Winky's if radio wasn't dying. I was saying SMS doesn't fit the mold.

    Actually, I think radio -> television is more relevant of an analogy than I originally recognized.

    Radio still stayed around after television, and I think a big reason is because while television fulfilled one of radio's niches better, it did not fulfill the other (more portable and ideal for music). Now that we have ipods and podcasts those basic functions of radio are dying out. Likewise, video calling will probably start to replace more standard phone calls (though it seems like there will always be a niche for calling to talk to someone in a situation where you can't video chat).

    Radio's dying? Since when.

    Hell, half the UK comedy shows which people post in [chat] started on Radio 4. Drama on Radio 4 is still hugely popular and attracts big-name actors. As I understand it, music radio in the UK is still a pretty big deal and has increasing audiences.

    In the US, radio is a complete wasteland. There is no good music ever and the only programs anyone listens to are news and talk shows, typically on the way to and from work.

    I don't know. I think your ride will at least be longer than how far a submariner can ride his bike while he is on duty.

    I broke 60km/h yesterday (hill- and wind-assisted) and I'd forgotten how terrifying that is on wheels that are less than an inch wide.

    Edit: I just got the Marathon reference.

    That's a noble goal, actually.
