Posted by TechCrunch
A major milestone for disruptive payments platform�Dwolla: the company has just switched on FiSync, its real-time money transfer system which aims to replace the outdated – and much slower – ACH process. ACH, or Automated Clearing House, is the traditional means for making electronic payments here in the United States. A 40-year old system, ACH enables money to move from Bank A to Bank B, but the transactions take two to five days to complete. FiSync basically blows that system up, offering banks, credit unions and service providers access to a real-time alternative.

Applying The Muppet Theory to tech — who are the Chaos Muppets?
Posted by Gigaom
The Muppet Theory has been making the rounds of late, most recently on NPR’s Weekend Edition Saturday. As detailed by Slate.com reporter Dahlia Lithwick, it holds that everyone can be categorized as a Chaos Muppet or an Order Muppet.
Chaos Muppets are “out-of-control, volatile,” she wrote in Slate earlier this month. � Their ranks, include�Cookie Monster, Ernie, Gonzo and?especially?Animal.
