Helicopter Problem
A helicopter was flying around above Seattle yesterday when an electrical malfunction disabled all of the aircraft's electronic navigation and communications equipment.
Due to the clouds and haze, the pilot could not determine the helicopter's position and course to steer to the airport.
The pilot saw a tall building, flew toward it, circled, drew a handwritten sign, and held it in the helicopter's window. The pilot's sign said "WHERE AM I?" in large letters.
People in the tall building quickly responded to the aircraft, drew a large sign, and held it in a building window. Their sign said "YOU ARE IN A HELICOPTER."
The pilot smiled, waved, looked at his map, determined the course to steer to SEATAC airport, and landed safely.
After they were on the ground, the co-pilot asked the pilot how the "YOU ARE IN A HELICOPTER" sign helped determine their position in Seatle.
The pilot responded "I knew that had to be the MICROSOFT building because, similar to their help-lines, they gave me a technically correct but completely useless answer."

I think microsoft has since gotten a little better about their tech support, however I don't think that is saying too much. Anyway, I feel kinda goofy for posting this in your comments section, but I didn't know another way to get in touch with you. I’m a fan of your blog and I also work at a small internet start-up in Berkeley called Redux with a bunch of other (mostly) unshaven 20-something year old guys. We’re building a site that is focused on creating a community around discovery of videos and other media. The last couple of weeks I’ve been tasked with making a list of people that are articulate, enjoy sharing stuff and most importantly have a good eye for interesting content. In short we’re looking for founding community members to be folks who actually care about what's good.
As much fun as it has been to be paid to sift through funny video collections on the internet, eventually I have to actually contact these people like you to help us. I don’t really know how to phrase this-- but I think that you’d be a big help in shaping the site with your opinions and showing us how you use it.
If you would like to be a part of our big, happy, unshaven family you can find our site at

You'd be among the first handful of people we are showing this to. If you need any help getting set up with the site or if you have any questions you can email me back at this address (michael@redux.com). We’re developing in a bubble of our own opinions, so I’d really like to hear what you think about the site.
Best,
Michael
