  • @ElaineEllis how to start on Doors Open Denver? Not clear on the site. in reply to ElaineEllis #
  • @davewiner I suspect Twitter is so short-staffed they don’t have time or expertise for good curatorship. in reply to davewiner #
  • @davidorban ANSA also takes down old articles = lots of link rot on my site. Managgia! in reply to davidorban #
  • @ajkeen lots of sites do that “you’re in x, therefore you must speak xian” thing. Drives me batty. in reply to ajkeen #
  • @ElaineEllis thx, had to get the map first, but figured that out. Legs hurt. in reply to ElaineEllis #
  • OMFG #
  • @baratunde male-female diffs in conversational styles take a lot of managing and awareness. Women generally don’t interrupt, men do. in reply to baratunde #
  • @nonstick better hope MIL never gets on Twitter. There’s always that risk… in reply to nonstick #
  • RT @deirdrewalsh http://myparentsjoinedfacebook.com/ – thanks, my daughter will love that one! #
  • @lbridenne76 you say that as if Coronas would be a drawback. in reply to lbridenne76 #
  • @zalez is there an online agenda for the meetings? #oracle #Munich #OpenSolaris in reply to zalez #
  • @jeffreytaylor as if required nudity and multiple showers are a bad thing? in reply to jeffreytaylor #
  • The death of 1000 reports on cuts: all this analysis is painful when it’s YOUR blood that may be on the street. #
  • Severgnini severo: http://tinyurl.com/d5r3lo (wish I could translate into English, he may do it himself) #
  • Uspo won’t deliver to my house so standing in line to pick up a registered letter. Augh #
  • The nice thing about twitter is: if you’re not interested in someone, YOU DON’T HAVE TO FOLLOW THEM #
  • “Carrie Prejean was neck-in-neck with winner Miss North Carolina…” Neck IN neck? Ouch! Fox News has no copyeditors, evidently. #
  • @italylogue there are a few Roman swear words in my Italian slang pages, and a few other dialects here and there #
  • @NatHistoryWhale hey, a friend of mine was very likely the editor of that video, whatever it is. in reply to NatHistoryWhale #
  • power nap on the boss’ sofa was good but not sufficient. More sleep at night would be nice, hard to achieve these days. #
  • @c0t0d0s0 speaking of important things, we’re still looking for suggestions on venue(s) for a student event in Hamburg on June 21st in reply to c0t0d0s0 #
  • @c0t0d0s0 “too expensive” is relative, but we don’t know how many people yet. Are German universities in session then? in reply to c0t0d0s0 #
  • FISL proposal drafted, C1 OpenSolaris schedule filling in… I’m starting to feel on top of my workload. I must be forgetting something. #
  • @thepartycow look up my buds at TVBLOB and let me know what you think. It’s cool technology. (I used to work on it.) in reply to thepartycow #
  • Google Profile both pointless and impossible for me. My name is unique, and my life doesn’t fit in little boxes. #
  • http://twitpic.com/3qhf5 – ROTFL – Google thinks I’m all about the Italian seduction! #
  • @ranaban the idea seems to be to uniquely identify you, so Google Profile might actually help in your case in reply to ranaban #
  • @jimgris re Community Leadership conf, looks as if as lot of us ought to. in reply to jimgris #
  • @rosso $%^#$%^$%^ ma sono diventati pazzi? Gelato is made to walk around with, that’s why it’s in a cone. And the stores are so tiny! in reply to rosso #
  • RT @rosso http://tinyurl.com/cby6do It’s now illegal to eat gelato on the streets in Lombardy. WTF? #
  • @shawnferry no you don’t, just use the password in reply to shawnferry #

  • @jimgris I’ve put it on the calender, in between Australia and OSCON… in reply to jimgris #
  • @alice my favorite charity http://sageprogram.org/ – teaching kids to be global citizens in MANY senses of the term #
  • @SteveEdiger see http://blog.alice.com/ – it’s a chance to have them give $25 to the charity of your choice in reply to SteveEdiger #
  • turning off the lights in Sun offices for Earth Day today is not, psychologically, a great idea. #
  • @StorageMonkeys black humor is my specialty. <wry grin> in reply to StorageMonkeys #
  • @plasticbagUK it is best to be cautious; most travelers are clueless and tropical diseases are v real. Malaria prevention also a good idea in reply to plasticbagUK #
  • corporate survival strategies: Eric gave me a slice of panettone, then I scavenged sandwiches left over from a meeting. #

  • just posted: Capturing Good Sound for Video http://tinyurl.com/dkkwwe #
  • anyone know of a way to track statistical trends in Twitter topics? e.g. for specific keywords #
  • @sumaya hmm. I need a way to track specific and not enormously popular topics e.g. Solaris Cluster in reply to sumaya #
  • @ckoontz thanks for the tips, though the topics I’m searching on are too obscure to really be on the radar on these svcs in reply to ckoontz #
  • and the prize for “most stupidly obvious headline” goes to: “Changes may be ahead for Sun Microsystems workers after Oracle buyout” #
  • @missbhavens umm… together? in reply to missbhavens #
  • @AmandaLorenzani good books I’m reading recently: Blink, God is Not Great, Nation, anything else Pratchett in reply to AmandaLorenzani #
  • recommendations for managing multiple twitter accounts? #
  • @ben I now have two Macs. And my old Dell laptop. in reply to ben #
  • @jowyang I love animals, but have a hard time with people acting as if they’re children. Plenty of real human children need love and money. in reply to jowyang #
  • @DonMacAskill you were great at the OpenStorage Summit, nice buildup to a Cinderella story. Kept us hooked, waiting for the outcome. in reply to DonMacAskill #
  • oh, right, today is Bring Your Kid to work day. My work was mostly at home when Ross was small, she learned the Internet sitting at my elbow #
  • @DonMacAskill you’ll be great. I’d recommend you as a speaker anytime (and I spend a lot of my life at conferences these days…) in reply to DonMacAskill #
  • okay, so I downloaded Tweetie. It’s pretty, but I can’t see how to use it with multiple accounts, and the user manual is “coming soon.” #
  • found the add account feature in Tweetie, but it doesn’t work (authentication error). And I’m not the only one. Still need a solution. #
  • ♫ “Who are going to meet their fate in a highly nervous state (tarantara tarantara tarantara)…” ♫ #
  • ♫ “…but of course it would be wise not to carp or criticise (tarantara tarantara tarantara)…” ♫ #
  • @jowyang re. JetBlue, they’re doin’ it right where it counts: on the plane. e.g. free movies when the TV wasn’t working. in reply to jowyang #
  • @DonMacAskill so how did it go? in reply to DonMacAskill #
