Bo,
Did you get my email
Just wanted to confirm the due date for hw6. Is it 1st June?
Did anyone else make a live web recommender for links? If so, post it here. I am intersted to see what other people did.
Here is mine:
In case you didn't already know, your article on google's prediction markets was eluded to in the latest Wired!
Here is a link to the article: http://www.wired.com/techbiz/it/magaz...
If you get a 503 message, it is because you are being too aggressive with the del.icio.us servers and got throttled. Here is the link that explains it:
Is anyone else having problems with the del.icio.us assignment. Everything was working fine and then suddenly I started getting this error. Is any one else experiencing the same thing. Looks like the server crashed.

This site reminded me of the very last presentation in class the other day. You can view and purchase what celebrities are wearing:
Very interesting data. Thanks for sharing.
Also, is the voting restricted to residents of London? If so, I don't see how you can compare % of UK traffic to % of US traffic. One is a local election -- the other is national.
Hi, did you pull the link ? I was looking for it.
This is cool indeed. Just having finished teaching 9 hours at Haas (UC Berkeley's GSB) today, I for a moment thought it was one of my students there :)
Hey, all:
TechCrunch mentioned Friends For Sale. Especially interesting is the mention of competitors:

to help me get data for homework 2.
Hi Ashlee,
I've gotten more explanations for some speakers but not all. The poll's at http://www.polldaddy.com/p/516585/ if you want to check it out. Hopefully it should be ready soon. I'm just waiting for the green light on it now.

Also see http://www.google.com/support/googlea... if you are using the newer tracking code.
I have learned you can track individual links to pdfs and other non-html content with Google Analytics, but it appears to require moving the tracking code (see http://www.google.com/support/googlea...).
Quinn - Are you getting the level of detail you need on the Guest Speakers to create the poll? Please let us know.
I am unsure of the due date of HW2. I know that you talked about the assignments for the first part of the class on Monday, but I don't recall the exact due date for HW2 nor is it on the wiki that I can see.
I added a section to the bottom of HW2 on the wiki for people to place links to their homepage. Seemed like an efficient way to visit everyone's site quickly and generate a lot of good data.

I am collecting data for HW1. Thanks! I will do the same for you - send me an email with your website link.
There is a company called predictify in San Francisco Bay Area. They came to the spring career fair last week. I thought their business model is pretty interesting. Hopefully, professor will invite them to give use a talk.
