  • having an offline kind of night I think #
  • ok, let’s just act like we have nothing to talk about *sigh* … #
  • http://is.gd/yVk Check out Feedly for a kind of personal newspaper based on your web 2.0 stuff. Very cool stuff. #
  • @dewaldp I’ve been using the nightlies for nearly 6 months now, but yeah …I’ll download it on 3 different machines tomorrow. #
  • So us East-coasters need to wait until 1PM to download Firefox 3 …that kind of stinks, I have all kinds of time right now. #
  • @vanillacokehead I’m just going based on this world map: http://is.gd/zbZ #
  • I can’t for the life of me figure out how I managed to scratch/cut the top of my tongue in several places. Was I chewing glass again? #
  • on average, my office gets roughly 45 minutes free out of me every day. kind of sad. I either get here early, miss lunch, or leave late. #
  • @anitsirk you spelled my name wrong, but I still saw it 😉 Yeah, we’ll see how well this download day goes. I have my doubts. #
  • it’s supposed to get down into the 40s tonight, should be great sleeping weather finally (for the first night in a while) #
  • @anitsirk I’m still curious how they will count downloads? It can’t be by IP, so just plain ‘ol downloads I guess? That could be messed with #
  • http://is.gd/zeA great article from LifeHacker.com on making Vista less annoying. Some very helpful tips here. #
  • well that was funny/rude… the guy who’s stealing my desk just came over to plan where he’s going to put his stuff. what a dick. #
  • Life of Pi became far more interesting to read one I took someone’s advice to skip all that religious BS in the beginning of the book. #
  • @bmorsh had problems with it refreshing too often, even after I told it to only refresh every 15 minutes it still exceeded the hourly limit #
  • dear god, lady sends me nothing except for an error #, no previous steps, no details, nada. *sigh* …people annoy me. #
  • http://is.gd/zgP the Mets fired Willie Randolph. what a stupid stupid decision. So much for the Mets having a chance this season. #
  • http://is.gd/zh0 Media Temple + Parallels to offer Leopard Server VPS. Gee, I bet that’ll be expensive. #
  • @bmorsh or Twhirl, which is my personal favorite 🙂 #
  • wow, really don’t need to hear this particular song right this moment. talk about bad timing. #
  • hopefully today picks up a bit …things are going very slowly. #
  • Celtics going to win tonight? Anyone have an opinion? #
  • AIM inside gTalk (inside Gmail) just died for me. It’s unable to connect. Anyone else having the same problem? #
  • @Matthom that sounds like a lot of fun actually. it’ll be satisfying to get rid of all those horrendous structural tables I bet. #
  • @danbenjamin same here too. I was bumped off AIM about 30 minutes ago. #
  • The BBC is running an article on the frontpage about the Firefox 3, but CNN doesn’t even have anything on the Tech page. weird. #
  • @waynesutton I just wish they actually had a privacy policy on the site. 1 sentence: “we don’t store your username/password.” #
  • @Matthom how many pages need to be converted? are they using ANY CSS at the moment? #
  • @mdjensen please considering adding a privacy policty to Tweetmarks. Also, it’d be nice if it could go back in time and grab past links. #
  • @Matthom Twitter just swallowed my reply. I’d much rather be doing that conversion than the BS I’m doing at the moment. I’m jealous. #
  • @mdjensen I was thinking this morning “I wish I could get a list of all the links I’ve posted to Twitter”, so I was/am excited to see this. #
  • @Matthom very true. You could write some antiquated VB6 for me and I’ll do the CSS 😉 #
  • @mdjensen no problem. I just tend to be paranoid 😉 #
  • http://is.gd/zqC ImageResizer powertoy from Windows XP has been migrated to Vista finally! Very handy plugin. #
  • http://is.gd/xuJ How to Nap cheatsheet. #
  • Grabbing an early lunch with the guys before this afternoon gets crazy. #
  • http://www.getfirefox.com is being hammered right now, can’t even load the page. #
  • @MaltaPa I don’t think that counts towards the download count though. I could be wrong #
  • You’d really think Mozilla would have been prepared for the MASSIVE traffice spike when they flipped the switch, it wasn’t a surprise. #
  • and the day just went down hill. wonderful. #
  • @Matthom believe me, I wish I could pass on it as well. #
  • http://is.gd/zA3 16GB flash drive for $49 after rebate #
  • @Rafe uh …so that you can completely mess up the Download numbers for today? That’s a great idea. #
  • It’s amusing that Firefox will likely make the headlines for failing at the launch, instead of the download record. #
  • http://is.gd/zfT this liknk for Firefox 3 (WINDOWS) works. no really. #
  • @mozillafirefox still showing v2.0.0.14 when I just loaded that page. #
  • http://is.gd/zfN working link for Firefox 3 (MAC). yes, it really works. #
  • http://is.gd/zDl calling out Kevin Garnett. “Instead the Counterfeit Ticket spend 15 min on the bench”… I’m a Celts fan, but this is good #
  • same shit, different day. kind of getting used to it. life goes on. #
  • going to be offsite (and offline) almost all of tomorrow. it’ll be nice to have a little breathing room I think. #
  • how many RSS subscriptions do you have? I have 136. I feel like that’s roughly average. #
  • http://is.gd/zBQ “Power User’s Guide to Firefox 3”. some handy tips (but I wouldn’t call some of them “power”) #
  • @Matthom I think if I cleaned out my dead feeds I’d be around 110ish. I really need to do that, but I’ve just been so lazy lately. #
  • Intense Debate or Disques for a commenting system? and why? #
  • http://is.gd/zON Firefox 3 passes 1 million downloads in 4 hours. wow. 5,000 and 14,000 downloads per minute #
  • anyone know where I can find the Firefox 3.1 nightlies? I’m kind of bored with the Firefox 3.0 nightlies now 😉 #
  • duh, found the Firefox 3.1 nightlies …duh. http://tinyurl.com/2q8x3 #
  • success! Firefox 3.1 is a go. (obviously no differences just yet, but I like to live on the bleeding edge) #
