Om Malik brings Calacanis and Rose together for a rare photo-op
It's no secret that Jason Calacanis -- founder and former head-hancho of Weblogs, Inc. -- and Kevin Rose -- that Digg kid -- have a mild feud between them. After Calacanis re-launched Netscape.com as a competing social news portal, albeit with a different target market, Rose and Calacanis fought publicly on their respective blogs in the public eye. Valleywag reports on a not-quite tearful reunion and burying of the respective hatchets at a launch party thrown by Revision3, Rose's on-line video company.
Aww, it's good to see thekids play nice for a change.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place.

This isn't necessarily directed at this post, but at DLS in general.
DLS used to be the place I came for the filtered - very best of - version of the day's tech news & ... downloads! I don't remember the alst time I saw something to download, and the 5-10 posts per day have become 20-40, regurgitating the same blah stories that hit digg, etc. It's just my opinion, but bring back the downloads, bring back the concentrated quality.

I agree with Jody. Stop blasting our feed readers with tons of crap. I don't care about Valleywag or TechCrunch. I have those feeds and read that news long before it makes it here. Get back to your roots!

What's more impressive is the fact that Kevin's wearing a tie! He's all, like, business-y and stuff. Where's the scruffy t-shirt and five o'clock shadow?
