I highly suggest that this Follower Suggestion design be peer-reviewed.

Content recommendation systems have a huge effect on how communities grow and evolve. One thing I like about Mastodon is that user recommendations are done by humans, not machines. This go-slow approach is more resilient to algorithms (even the simple one presented here..)

Here's a recent paper that discusses how recommendation systems can reinforce bias.

So before this gets unleashed on the world please do your research and study the available literature. Get experts to review it and listen to the people that have been doing this for a long time. You can then avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.

I have one invite left for purchasing Google Glass for the first person that wants it.  Remember the requirements are:

- be a US resident

- be 18 years or older

- purchase Glass

- provide a U.S. based shipping address OR pick up the device in New York, San Francisco or Los Angeles

Wow, lots of questions! We'd rather "show" than "tell" so here you go: the mono earbud, and the Glass that Explorers will be getting when they swap later this year.

Edit: More questions! The earbud plugs into Glass, so you can choose whether to use it.

University of Minnesota alumni meetup in full swing.

Was asked if there will be a version of Gopher for Glass :)

Early Sunday, before it got too hot, Julie Lindner  and I took our dog Tommy for a walk in the Oakland Hills.  With some care (and a bit of luck!) you can get some nice shots with the Glass camera.

I missed this part!  Timothy and I worked together on +1

I was at the Intercontinental Hotel and saw the parachutes -- amazing!

This demo of Glass is insane.  I'd really like to get the opportunity to jump out of the zepplin over SF.

Here's the Google Glass video I mentioned.

This is just so amazing.

We think technology should work for you—to be there when you need it and get out of your way when you don’t.

A group of us from Google[x] started Project Glass to build this kind of technology, one that helps you explore and share your world, putting you back in the moment. We’re sharing this information now because we want to start a conversation and learn from your valuable input. So we took a few design photos to show what this technology could look like and created a video to demonstrate what it might enable you to do.

Please follow along as we share some of our ideas and stories. We’d love to hear yours, too. What would you like to see from Project Glass?
