anyone have an invite for 12 seconds? I’d love to use it for a class project… #
@mashable …so um…where is the “login” button on the new site design? I’m trying to login for the invites section, and I’m lost… #
@mashable ahh haa! The login link (which is WAY too tiny) only shows on the first page of the invites, I had done a search = no login link #
@steelopus appreciate it! just got it 🙂 #
@fulltimecasual how large of a library is it? My library is 85GB and the genius scan/send/receive took about 3 hours total. #

cold humid night … at least I can fall asleep to the sound of rain which will be nice #
I should go run my errands, but I’m seriously lacking the motivation #
Retweeting @jakemarsh: Checking out http://www.devunity.com/ – anyone got the hook up on an account there? I’ll 2nd that, this looks cool #

@jeremyb absolutely. I couldn’t handle a terribly addicting game right now. Thank god this isn’t Diablo 3 😛 #
listening to awful 80s music in class…it’s too early for music this crappy. #
grey rainy Tuesday mornin… hoping the day goes by quickly. #
in class …we’re talking about Facebook intellectually …this is kind of fun in a weird way. #
Apple Event is at 1PM Eastern for those of us on the East coast. #
Getting ready for a long boring movie… Trying not to fall asleep in class. #
Why does installing/updating an app on my Touch take 2-3 minutes each? That’s annoying and seems a bit much. #
Ok then… Apparently I was just making shit up. *sigh* shocking. #
wow, iTunes 8’s grid view. Just like the view that the Zune desktop software has used for …um …years? Way to go Apple. #
do I really want to update iTunes? …I may give it a day or two to see if things explode for others. #
http://tinysong.com/1tWH yeah, pretty much. #
Dear iTunes, if you want the Bonjour service you might consider starting it yourself. It’s set to automatic — you figure it out. #
iTunes 8 is taking 250MB of RAM and 35% of my CPU. That’s …um…special. #
scratch that. iTunes 8 is using 600MB of RAM (and counting) #
@ceejayoz lol… it’s currently at 800MB and 35% CPU usage …yeah, that’s not a good sign 😛 #
@RuViljoen I’m hoping after it’s first run indexing/genius scanning crap it’ll settle down … I’ll let you know what happens. #
the new visualization certainly is pretty….pretty useless. Who actually uses visualizations any more? #
@one2love technology just hates me .. 😛 I’m half serious #
@yorgle yeah, why the hell did they get rid of the option to disable the browsing arrows in iTunes 8? …that’s a silly thing to get rid of #

the Jets have no running game, that’ll be a problem. #
@jeremyb cracked? It had some kind of weekly online activation requirement last I heard. #
the Jets don’t have a backup kicker? Really? No one? Wow… #
found a working copy of Spore. cool cool …will give it a try in a day or two. #
@jeremyb please do. I’m curious if I should buy it eventually. #

What is the longest period of time you’ve been offline in the past 5 years? #
@RuViljoen LOL… Got a car, just happen to be a poor college student :p #
the most consecutive days I’ve had offline might be 6 days I think. Maybe 4-5 days a few times though. #
@RuViljoen wow! How did you stay offline for 2 months? #
@RuViljoen I have a job. I also have bills that are more important than some computer game. #
@RuViljoen oh, gotcha …I get what you meant. 😛 Yeah, I hear ya … not internet = no job. #

@davehuston Lieberman did give $100,000 to the Democratic Party last month alone though. That’s…um…gotta mean something right? 😛 #
@davehuston you’d be trashed in under 15 minutes. #
@davehuston true, but it *could* have gone to the Republicans if he was a complete douche bag. He’s just a 85% douche bag. #
@steelopus have they actually figured out how to theme Flock yet? It has the ugliest default theme known to man, but it *is* a great browser #
a little more of the football game and then a hot (phone) date. #

@ManFmNantucket the diffence? features/extensions… Chrome has the absolute bare minimum features. Firefox is a swiss army knife. #
@ManFmNantucket you can avoid the bloat with Firefox, just don’t install any extensions. Bloat = features sometimes too. #
@ManFmNantucket it’s a hard balance to offer the features that users want, but not be perceived as “bloated” …it’s a balancing act. #
I’m kind of just tired of life… #
