“The fact that the Internet never seems to forget is threatening, at an almost existential level, our ability to control our identities; to preserve the option of reinventing ourselves and starting anew; to overcome our checkered pasts.”

Mashups, Markets and Motherhood: XX Combinator

Mashups, Markets and Motherhood: XX Combinator:

This weekend, while packing my girls up to go to the Town Park Pool to escape the heat, I had an idea. The more I think about it, the more badly I want it. In the meanwhile, it’s picked up a some steam.

I commented about it to Fred Wilson in an AVC.com comment, who liked it, and then…

I like it!

“Looking attractive, at any age, is just what Frenchwomen do, especially the urban ones. For Parisiennes, maintaining their image is as natural as tying a perfect scarf or wearing stilettos on cobblestone streets. Beauty is a tradition handed down from generation to generation. ‘My grandmother always told me, “Never neglect yourself, not even in the tiniest details,”’ my friend Françoise Augier said, with a sweeping head-to-toe gesture. The French actress Leslie Caron, still Gigi-like at 79, told me her mother’s favorite saying: ‘Women’s skin is too fair to go bare.’”

So, apparently, I have an old lady iPod. I had never even considered my iPod outdated until my colleagues here at Hot Potato HQ made fun of me about it. When I got this thing (I don’t even remember how long ago), the 60GB video iPod was THE shit, and I was the coolest kid in school. Do people even buy them anymore, or do they just use their Jesus phones? Damnit, I’m old!

Amazing.
