And if cloning is so bad why do we have a hundred wiki implementations? You're just pissed at Google. Yo Burt: It’s not a clone.

It's called commerce. There's nothing wrong with different implementations of the same basic idea, however outright cloning is and should be frowned upon. It's good to see Google doing the right thing, even if it took a bit of prodding. Yo George: All markets have some regulation, even free ones. It’s called commerce.

If you don't support your smaller designers, you lose the great innovation they bring to the web.

HG: Interesting. I tried it out earlier and didn't hit either of those problems. I wonder if the fabled Google is having some scaling issues?

User preferences fails, the demo chat room on the first page fails. Could be cool once it is solid. This thing is really buggy. User preferences fails, the demo chat room on the first page fails.

HuddleChat doesn't appear to be a google product or release.. It's just a demo app for their new App Engine. Erm.. HuddleChat doesn’t appear to be a google product or release..
