Interesting idea, but there’s no way tab-enter takes an extra half second: http://tcrn.ch/i8VjXK @parislemon
sween For those who missed it yesterday, get a time machine.
All the bells and whistles @google is adding to my search results are just starting to frustrate and annoy me.
@geoffgauthier BELLY! (just had a stretch)
@ttscoff Say it ain’t so!
@chrismaddocks Ahh, I missed that. Whew!
@chrismaddocks Did that seriously happen to you?
@GlenTrainor Yeah, my face was frozen for 20 minutes after we got back inside.
@GlenTrainor @geoffgauthier Classic Oatmeal!
@GlenTrainor The printer industry is so F’d up.
@geehoneybee @JimmySlims Now *I’m* picturing myself naked, and it’s a gorgeous sight. You’re welcome!
@geehoneybee @JimmySlims Other than my luscious self, what should I bring? Be there around 7:30-7:45.
I love Dropbox because it makes backing up your critical files worry-free. http://db.tt/MrQlgvr
@geoffgauthier He deserves it based on stats alone.
@geehoneybee Sure you are.
@JimmySlims So to speak.
@ttscoff I like that idea - and the markdown and URL shouldn’t count against your character count. SMS could fall back to just the URL.
My 5 year-old son just tricked my wife into sitting on a whoopee cushion.
I am so truly proud! #fb
Feeling like working out, then just remembered I’m playing hockey today. That’ll do!
Soccer’s canceled - no standing outside in the cold and wind… Hey kids, let’s go play in the snow!!!

sween I’d like to meet George Clooney. He’d talk about the cool stuff he does. I’d talk about being married. He’d get sad. I’d say, “It’s ok.”
scottsimpson I’m truly surprised I turned out to be a “GET OUT OF THE GODDAMNED CAR AND LOOK AT THE GODDAMNED OCEAN”-style dad.
@geoffgauthier Great song
@geoffgauthier It’s the mat your chair sits on, you’re generating static electricity. Those ear zaps hurt like mofos, don’t they?
@geehoneybee @JimmySlims That doesn’t sound like a problem to me… ;-) I can be there around 7:30
Funniest autocorrect ever: http://damnyouautocorrec… #fb
@swirlee What’s a Ruby Tuesday?
For a design guy, it’s hard to believe @gruber is okay with Task Surfer as a sponsor for his podcast.
badbanana In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man marries the hot chick.
Not to mention Jesus of Suburbia, Son of a Preacher Man, Ramble On, In Bloom, London Calling, Foreplay/Long Time, Listen to the Music. Weird
Made a Genius playlist in iTunes using the Beatles’ We Can Work it Out. It includes Lola, Hey You, All Apologies, Jeremy, Janie’s Got a Gun?
How have I never bothered to learn the bass line to Ramble On? What a great groove.
If you don’t eat your meat, you can’t have any pudding! #fb
@hootsuiteiphone iPad app looks great; just wish there was a visual indicator on tweets that are part of a conversation like on the web.
Can’t believe how many times I’ve tried to go to a Tumblr page in the past week only to see the over capacity error.
I wish there was a way to opt out of Twitter memes. I’m not interested in your #incrediblyinanepuns
@danfrakes Front-end configuration can be a bit involved, but downstream use is very simple and straightforward. Stays out of your way.
@danfrakes For more info, check the Perspectives section in Shawn Blanc’s recent and fantastic review of OmniFocus: http://bit.ly/akpvBY
@danfrakes It doesn’t have one built-in, but you can make one easily using the Perspectives feature.
@danfrakes @stevenf If you haven’t tried @omnifocus in a while, you might be surprised. Default settings make it behave more like Things.
@danfrakes @jsnell Have you tried Socialite on the Mac? In it, when you read a tweet from a list, that tweet is filtered out elsewhere.
@geehoneybee @JimmySlims Yeah, umm… yikes.
@GlenTrainor @geoffgauthier Wow, what an awful song to reference. Yikes.
I’m self-loathing as hard as I can, but it doesn’t seem to be burning any more calories than normal.
@pvponline Start at the beginning - Please Please Me
5. Don’t have a meeting because you’re supposed to have a meeting, have it because there’s a reason to. And not if there isn’t.
3. Learn how to use your company’s scheduling tool to book rooms
4. Check to see if a room is booked before taking it
I should start teaching a class on meeting etiquette:
1. Show up to meetings you book
2. Notify attendees of cancelations or postponments
Hilarious re: Apple’s Beatles announcement: http://www.kungfugrippe….
Toronto was one of the new cities added to Twitter’s local trends feature, but not Vancouver? Brutal.
funnyordie Facebook Messages is going to revolutionize the way people you barely know invite you to shit you don’t want to do.
@chartier Especially since by now anyone who really wanted digital copies of Beatles songs has probably found a way to get them.
Phrase I miss hearing in hockey: “stacked the pads” Sounds cool, and was always related to an entertaining play.
ironicsans “And now instead of saying ‘IM me’, with Facebookmail you’ll just tell people to ‘F me.’”
I couldn’t hate that idea more. RT @harrymccracken: E-mails from the outside world arrive in Facebook as chat messages. #facebooklive

@harrymccracken Be pretty hard; I can’t think of anything good about it!
joshuatopolsky Location-awareness. Places. Check-ins. Social graphs. Coupons. All things I don’t care about.
@danielpunkass Why not simply strip formatting when pasting? That’s what I want to do 90% of the time anyway.
@marcoarment At least the majority of the following commenters call BS on him.
@timbray That’s true of any product, not unique to the Tab.
Can you always believe what you hear? This combination audio/video illusion says no: http://www.wimp.com/mcgu… #fb
mathowie “Honest Bob and the Factory-to-Dealer Incentives” is my new favorite wacky band name.
Note to self: stop doing shit and go for lunch, before more stuff arrives that needs to be done immediately.
@chartier Yeah, but $50 for a screenshot grabber?
It’s always good to start a meeting with a zap, puff of smoke, and acrid burning electronics smell. Livened up the room, anyway. #fb
@chartier Unfortunately, he needs the networked version. Drobo goes out of their way to prevent sharing without it.
chockenberry I would love to see this implemented in Flash for a good side-by-side comparison: http://bit.ly/dmgou7
@geoffgauthier Beans!
@GlenTrainor Where you going, yo?

dansays When your self-written twitter bio says, “web visionary,” I read it as: “Wile E. Coyote, Super Genius.”
Just switched all my calendar software to start the week on Monday. So much easier to see the weekend together.
Removing malware is like having an action figure collection: when young you think it’s cool, but older you think ‘what a waste of time’.
Damn you, autocorrect http://damnyouautocorrec… is pretty funny
@geehoneybee I have to agree with that. Traffic has been unbelievably bad the past few weeks.
@marcoarment Good riddance to a bad customer. His ineptitude (and apparent lack of balance) is not your problem.
stevenf Wait a minute, you’re BIRDS, why do you need a CATAPULT
I wish Steven Wright was an actual DJ on a 70’s station in my city.

I really like @FogBugz 8, but the way the menu bar changes when viewing administration pages is very jarring and confusing.
AmyJane “Oh! What song is your son singing?”
Listen lady, we both know that it’s “Shake Your Rump” and that you’re a better parent than I am.
@stevenf We let our kids hand out candy, and they actually almost did that.
@GlenTrainor And there it is. Yowza.
@GlenTrainor Those are freakishly real-looking. I bet they look fantastic with the squeaky clown nose.
@GlenTrainor Cool, thanks!
Josh: what time will it get dark?
Fran: I don’t know.
Milo: Oh right, because you’re not a scientist. #fb
@alancross Worth it?
@geehoneybee Whatever those are, they look delicious!
@GlenTrainor Which book? Been thinking of starting that series.
I have to say, I just don’t see the point of doing a tech news satire site. Tech news is ridiculous enough as it is.
My wife’s uncle continues to improve. Great to see press focusing on the positives instead of sensationalizing: http://bit.ly/9h5z4M
