July 2nd, 2008- @steelopus I was sitting there with my other sidebars in Flock and it hit me…a RTM sidebar would be SO helpful/handy #
- Red Sox have 2 outs, bases loaded…Lowell up to bat …let’s go boys! #
- Red Sox lost. poo. off to an early bed time …big plans tomorrow evening
# - Oh, and playing with WordPress 2.6 Beta 2 a bit …the Admin dashboard using Google Gears is VERY speedy #
- yeah, definitely couldn’t sleep (much). ah well, sometimes sleep just feels really boring #
- “…I didn’t move a muscle. I hardly breathed. That was the deal basically: catatonia without; frenzy within.” #
- rocking out (if you can actually call it that) to some Coltrane, Miles Davis, Louis Armstrong, etc …very very nice
# - cleaning, vacuuming, and more generally just keeping busy so that I don’t have time to get antsy/freak out
(a good kind of freak out) # - http://is.gd/Kyc MS office (home and student) + OneCare = Microsoft Equipt … still not a fan of renting software for $70/year. #
- damn it. I just ruined my white polo shirt…it’s not a shade of off pink. #
- Picking up groceries and grabbing some lunch. #
- http://xkcd.com/444/ MacGyver gets lazy …lol. hilarious if you ever watched MacGyver in the past (or just funny in general) #
- Retweeting @mozillafirefox: Congratulations everyone! It’s officially a new world record: http://tinyurl.com/5ctj3u #
- listening to an advanced copy of Nas’s Untitled album (the album formerly titled “N**ger”) #
- @manaswi good question. I bet it includes auto-updates as well. I use nightlies on 3 computers …didn’t “officially” download it at all. #
- @manaswi excellent question. maybe it doesn’t include auto-updates then. just individual visitors/downloaders from their site? #
- just once it would be nice to get a pleasant surprise. or maybe at least have a negative assumption be proven wrong. that’d be cool. #
- T _ _ _ s is hear for the weekend…probably will be offline the vast majority of that time. See/talk to you Monday. #

July 1st, 2008- I easily set a new record in the month of June for my number of Tweets. New total is 604 at the moment …previous record was 535. #
- @steelopus the past few days it has been signing me out 1-2x a day. It seems to go through good/bad weeks, kind of weird. #
- @bpw not a whole lot of time usually. most of my Tweets aren’t while at work. Some days are slow, but not most of the time. #
- @steelopus what I meant to say was that I have issues staying logged in, but I’m not having issues with tasks showing up/not showing up. #
- @steelopus Firefox 3? (though this was happening with Firefox 2 if I remember also) #
- just need to get through 1 more day in the office, tomorrow I’m working from home, and then it’s finally time for my mini-vacation #
- http://is.gd/zmO MediaTemple’s virtual OSX Leopard Server sounds awesome…I hope I get into the private beta for it. #
- definitely didn’t realize it was July 1st today
…I mean, sure it makes sense now that I think about it… *blush* # - @steelopus
I like OSX Server, from the little bit that I’ve played with it in the past. I’ll give credit where it’s due. # - @steelopus oh man. so not cool.
Teasing geeks with new hardware is not cool! I walk by our massive server room each day and drool a bit # - @steelopus I could always help you “test” it. When does it go into production? Or is it literally just for testing/dev right now? #
- @steelopus can’t hurt to sign up for the beta, could always decline if you get accepted. domains are cheap anyways. #
- already seeing the infamous Twitter whale this morning…that’s a bad indication for the day ahead in Twitter stability. #
- http://is.gd/Jzn List of banned books (with PDF download links to all of them) #
- @steelopus get into the beta first
then worry about the domain later. http://is.gd/JzT 1and1.com has $2.99/yr “.us” domains right now # - wow…a “simple little fix” just turned into 3 1/2 hours, BUT we did fix it
# - @steelopus 1&1 isn’t dime-a-dozen. They are HUGE in the UK (that’s the only down side - support is based on UK time) Used them several times #
- @heidihoover hmm? I think the “in reply to” is messed up on my end. I don’t know what you’re referring to. What is/was banned? #
- Crazy morning…hoping the afternoon slows down a bit. *fingers crossed* #
- @flocker I’m a alpha/beta addicted, but thanks for the warning!
# - busy busy afternoon as well. *sigh* …but it’s just about done which is always nice as well! #
- really had serious doubts that my car was going to make it home…that was quite likely the last time I will ever drive that car *sniffle* #
- playing around with the Flock 2.0 nightly…pretty darn stable so far! #
- @flocker can I send you feature suggestions as well? a Remember the Milk sidebar would be AWESOME if done right. That would be killer! #
- http://tinyurl.com/6ip Adobe Reader 9 is now available …MUCH faster than Reader 8, quite impressed actually. #
- @bangbang023 the first boot of the app is slow, but then it takes literally less than 1 second to open up. #
- yummy Chinese food and a little baseball/reading. looking forward to a nice chill evening. #
- If Last.fm made a portable streaming music/radio device would you buy it? I’d buy it in a second. (if the price was right) #

June 30th, 2008- wow, definitely could have/would have slept for another few hours easily. feeling exhausted this morning…coffee here I come! #
- only 2 more nights of sleeping alone…thank god… #
- general feeling this morning is basically summed up as:
… 3 more days, 2 more nights. that is all. # - @strawpoll Home runnning Vista (2), work running XP (1) …(home also Ubuntu and OSX as well) #
- allergies are destroying me this morning, but I’m trying not to care all that much… #
- blocking a few spammer requests on Twitter. not doing too bad on spammers…only maybe 1-2 spammers per week #
- @Matthom I have the same problem, but I’m just tall…I’ve come to expect it at this point
# - @Matthom I love walking out of the house first in the morning to a face full of spide webs…the dog just happily runs under them. #
- @Matthom I *constantly* wonder about that. *shiver* …I take that back, I don’t want to think about that. #
- decided to get a little sneaky (and paranoid), and installed a key scrambler at work. I don’t like the idea of *possibily* being spied on. #
- @Matthom you’re not sorry.
It’s good to know someone else worries about the same thing though. # - @replies are now only display @replies for the current day? …that’s, uh, different (and isn’t very helpful). #
- I think Twitter increased the API limit? Twhirl is reporting 70 requests per hour at the moment…can that be correct? #
- @steelopus heck of a storm yesterday evening huh? Did you get any of the hail they predicted? #
- I’m on a roll so far today…already 14 updates (this will be 15) to Twitter this morning. #
- Apple Laptop Upgrades Costing 200% More Than Dells (can’t say I’m shocked.) http://tinyurl.com/3zdplc #
- and just like that half of the day is gone…amazing. (I’m not complaining, just a bit shocked) #
- wtf? I just updated MS Mac Office 2008 and now I can’t open any of the applications. It just keeps loading the AutoUpdate checker instead #
- Twitter versus Plurk: Not Even in the Same League (interesting comparison.) http://tinyurl.com/5sleyn #
- @steelopus I have very little that is positive to say about Apple. Would you like me to lie? I do like my iPod Touch. I’ll give them that. #
- @steelopus I don’t have all that much positive to say about Microsoft either. Nor Google for that matter. I like Microsoft Research labs tho #
- CSS Variables are …. here! (how many times have you wanted to use variables? such good news!) http://tinyurl.com/62rydb #
- @srcasm coffee 85% of the time. Tea the other 15% #
- I’m just a snotty coughing mess today. Allergy meds really don’t seem to be doing the trick (duh, obviously). #
- http://www.safenow.org/ hilarious! especially the Michael Jackson one. #
- @steelopus lol…I am quite positive about a lot of things. #
- @srcasm I honestly just really like the complex taste of a very good cup of coffee. I don’t care about the caffeine. #
- 10 web design books you probably missed but owe yourself to read http://tinyurl.com/6cm9jo #
- http://is.gd/J98 Windows Steady State created a temporary cache of your operating system that you can just flush to reset back to beginning #
- I’m not such a fan of Spanish wines when it comes to just sipping. They tend to be a bit too aggressive/spicy for my liking. #
- @flocker excellent! Do you offer nightly builds? (like Firefox 3.1pre where I just download the new version each day?) #

June 29th, 2008- it’s not much of a conversation when the replies are 4-5 minutes apart. forget it. #
- @JoeCascio they use the memory card in their phone to transfer it to their computer…then posts it to the web. #
- I’m going to be done talking this evening. I’m just failing. #
- didn’t sleep very well, but I’m up awake. craving coffee and left over pizza. #
- @chrisbrogan coffee, a little SportsCenter, and a good book. #
- going to see Wall-E…quite excited! #
- doing very little, hoping the massive thunderstorm on the radar actually hits us #
- Mets are up 2-0 bottom of the 6th…niiiice. #
- Yeah, so that plan definitely failed. #
- Headed home in the rain… Hail tonight supposedly. #
