I kind of want this. I have absolutely no use for it, I don’t need it, but who can resist a big, squishy, purple keyboard?

Everyone was down today due to a major power outage in San Francisco. Netflix, Craigslist, TypePad, Vox, LiveJournal, Adbrite, Technorait, Yelp, RedEnvelope and more. Or was it really a drunken employee that did the damage? Leave it to Valleywag to kick someone when they’re down. Literally.

I just watched The Pirates of Silicon Valley last night right here. Made Steve Jobs look like an miserable, egotistical a**. Yelled at his employees all the time about how they were crap and their work was crap. Tried to pretend he wasn’t the baby daddy of his kid. Treated his friends terribly. How true was this movie? How come everyone idolizes him if it was true?
