Twitter Digest for 2010-07-16

  • wow. triple-threat inbox 0. (work, gmail, paper) ok, nobody send me anything! let me enjoy this (rare) moment. #
  • reason #9724 why I'm not on the money-handling side: forgot to sign check before depositing into the ATM. :\ altho apparently it's all good. #
  • @kegill at 1 point I wanted to get more involved with http://olyblog.net/ and put some of my talking-out-of-my-hat theories into practice. #
  • @kegill not that sun chronicle is doin it rite, but it should be doable in theory. #
  • @kegill I don't see why they couldn't be…esp given that they're likely to actually live in the same community. #
  • @simonstl "Office 2010 has many new features to let users be more creative and expressive." O.o #
  • OTOH, can I just say once more for emphasis that I <3 the internet? #
  • I think my brain is stalling out. #
  • @Oakwright 4u: http://bit.ly/bmrZq0 🙂 #
  • @dylanw @kegill wheeee! (srsly, #mefi is my personal favorite example in talking about an excellent online community.) #
  • @kegill I had that happen too. IIRC, used the contact form & was sent password to my new email! (altho I knew my username) #
  • @kegill @dylanw I swear I've read someplace (more than once) in which @mathowie talks abt the $5 also serving as a useful speedbump. #
  • @kegill worth looking at the current signup process, I think. uses paypal for payment, altho u can send $ or stamps (!) to @jessamyn IIRC. #
  • @kegill @dylanw yes, pseudonym, but consistent one becomes stable identity over time, & many choose to associate w/IRL identity in profile. #
  • @kegill @dylanw beat me to the bunch on @mefi reg fee. It's been my impression that's made the site work all this time. (11 years today!) #
  • @myerman wasn't gonna say this, but when I only put in 1st page & a half of the NaNo: Stephanie Meyer #shootmenow in reply to myerman #
  • @dylanw but wow, that is pretty. #
  • @dylanw I'm still ::this:: bitter about not getting the web manager job there some years back. (3 damn interviews, incl multi-hour marathon) in reply to dylanw #
  • @myerman my last long blog post: David Foster Wallace. the first section of my novel: Ursula K LeGuin. (woohoo!) in reply to myerman #
  • @dylanw y'know, I applied to UPS mostly because of the pretty brochure & late deadline. I bet now that would be "website" instead. in reply to dylanw #
  • 2nd conference call of the day. reasonably productive ones, actually, altho mismatched audio levels are crazy-making. #
  • @russ668 sounds a bit like chai w/out the tea. (yum.) in reply to russ668 #
  • @myerman @simonstl reaffirms my instinct that the cell cos trend towards evil. (wondering if it was Motorola's idea or Verizon's.) #
  • @gusandrews fascinating stuff — def. keep me posted! in reply to gusandrews #
  • So I hear that traffic downtown is INSANE. (If it were me, I'd either go 'round or if actually going downtown, take bus or walk.) #
  • @lauras totally agreed! just thinking abt the last time I had to talk someone out of it. I always use the "person in cubicle" example. in reply to lauras #
