@bradlinder Why do you prefer Disqus over WordPress’s built-in commenting?
Had fun over lunch hour recording some bass tracks for @GlenTrainor. Hope there’s something useful in all that noodling!

Zuckerberg: “We have seen no meaningful uptick in the number of people who deleted their accounts.” Oh really? Then why http://bit.ly/dfaTeg
I’m glad Facebook went so far overboard with recent changes, because it’s forcing them to fix it. Gradual changes may have been accepted.
chartier RWW is liveblogging (with Google Wave) Facebook’s new privacy controls getting released today. Sounds positive so far: http://bit.ly/9kETRK

I’m not in a “being awake” mood today.
@taddeis Oops; hey, it was late… what can I say?
@taddeis The irony, of course, is that most pets are annoying, and - some might say - shitty.
Woke up with a headache, hasn’t gone away.

Fine, “early” might be a relative term.

Just realized what that sounded like. I *am* wearing pants, don’t worry.
Full-on working-from-home attire today. Sweatshirt, Crocs, couldn’t find my track pants though.

I kind of wish I was on Facebook, only so that I could share my reasons for quitting Facebook with my Facebook friends: http://bit.ly/9C6A4D

@GlenTrainor I can’t even get that far.
From a comment on http://mattmckeon.com/fa… “With Facebook, you’re not their customer, you’re their product.”
Just walked into my office reading a document (not paying attention) to find @glentrainor sitting in my chair. Scared the crap out of me.
Funny, Facebook exec Elliot Schrage suggests users view his Facebook page in the NYT article (http://nyti.ms/chhu2u), but the link’s broken.

Hey CBC, don’t you think those shots of despondent #Canucks fans sitting in the stands are a bit much? We get it already.
Mike Gillis: This off-season please lose Luongo, Demitra, Bernier. That alone would free up $12m or so. #Canucks
For sale: Overpaid “superstar” goalie. Lacks focus, stomach for the playoffs. Will pay you to haul him and his contract away. #Canucks
No kidding. Bye bye, Canucks season. RT @JimmySlims: Na na na na na na na hey hey hey this sucks!

Great Wired piece on Facebook; some new info that reinforces that canceling my FB account was the right move. http://bit.ly/9Uq3Rp
Just tried Byline 3.0 after seeing @chartier mention it. Wow, serious speed. I like Reeder, but I think I might be switching back to Byline.
I wear jeans and runners to work almost every single day, yet wearing black socks I feel “professional” and white I feel like an imposter.
@hnefatafl These two teams seem to have a polarizing effect on each other, somehow. One team’s on, the other one’s off. Weird.
@hnefatafl Agreed. Wouldn’t want to be in Salo’s shoes right now. Was great to see them step it up in every way; Chicago looked befuddled.
Just finished watching the end of the Canucks game on the PVR. Good work boys, nice to see signs of life! Need to do it all over again Tues.
Just deactivated my Facebook account.
Three words: Point Break Live http://bit.ly/cbsvZ1 All I can say is I wish it was playing in my town.
@JimmySlims Yeah, that’s pretty weird.
@hnefatafl Oh, you’d be right at home on a Mac! It’s just a pretty *nix OS.
Being a Canucks fan is painful in the post season.
@hnefatafl Haha - guilty as charged. I have enough ‘fun’ fixing Windows on other people’s machines.
BBonCanucks My coaching for next game: “6 or 7 goals is maybe too many to give up. Try to give up… you know… less than… I don’t know… 4. Ok?”
@Simbeau Unfortunately, it’s really moot. They might steal one more, but for all intents and purposes the series is over. Lu’s not clutch.
@hnefatafl And I’m platform agnostic, but prefer Macs.
@hnefatafl Just calling it like I see it. Lu’s overrated, not the clutch player he has the reputation as. Believe me, it pains me to say.
It looks like the Canucks just want to be put out of their misery at this point. They’ve got to be dreading having to play another game.
Ok, I’m calling it. Time of death, 8:57pm. RIP Canucks playoff hopes.
@leemathews Looking forward to it!
I’m giving up on Facebook and deactivating my account, at least for now. I just don’t trust them.

As much as I love @Tweetie, if you’re a keyboard shortcut fan (i.e. Gmail), @Echofon is a wonderful Mac Twitter client.
badbanana Shipwrecked on an island with one album? I’d want Coldplay. I might need that final bit of encouragement to kill myself.
Looking forward to my 4 meetings scheduled for today. Sarcasm? No, haven’t heard of it.
It’d be nice to see Demitra take a hit to make a play.
Happily transferring my domains away from GoDaddy almost as much because of their horrible user interface as for their scumminess.

If I could get the answer I need from your website, I’d damn well be doing it. Telling me every 3 minutes about your site just annoys me.
If you’re in charge of a phone system, just play bad music. That way people can put the phone on hands free and actually do something.
Being on hold is bad enough, but having to listen to tips and advertainment while waiting makes doing something else almost impossible.
