The way they present the new settings are confusing: "Everyone or Old Settings." Why can't they tell you what your old settings are? Many people have never changed their default settings, and I don't remember what my old setting are. I selected Old Settings, and then went to the settings page to see what they were.
The 3rd party app privacy settings are confusing. I didn't think so at first, but I was getting confused.

This is starting to sound like a YouTube comment thread. Way to go, commenters.
I like using the keyboard shortcuts, but have had a hard time remembering the ones for GMail.
This guy accomplished something where there was a need, while you just sat at home and bashed him and CNet.

The Verizon Droid monthly plan costs more than the iPhone. That's insane. I would not pay for the iPhone, and I sure won't pay for the Droid.

Using #blamedrewscancer in your twitter post does not cost anything.
And was it really "clever" for Drew O to use the name @Drew? Did he plan to auction it off from the very beginning? Such as buying the domain www.pizza.com when the internet was very new?

I like Drew Olanoff being just @drew because it shows how he was part of twitter at the start. I found podcasting because of The Best Damn Tech Show, which Drew O was a part of. He was there at the early parts of some great stuff.
If I had the money to bid for @drew, I think I would just pay the bid, but it would feel weird taking over the name.
Fan to Drew *Someone*: Wow, you've been on Twitter a long time to get "@drew".
Drew *Someone* to Fan: Um, actually I bought it from a kid with cancer.
Fan: cricket cricket...
Maybe I've just made a more personal connection with twitter names. Something that only happens with local business names, but not big chains.
