  • @sogrady ha! now you baseball fans have to deal with DOB again. We soccer fans shouted in unison, ‘take him back, now!’ #
  • @sogrady his voice and delivery are so ill-suited for soccer it was fingernails-on-chalkboard irritating #
  • @sogrady I hear ya. I was just chuckling to myself that you had to listen to him now. #
  • anybody got a brightkite invite? #
  • @edsmiley ah, thanks. you were 2 seconds late :) #
  • @xolotl I hear Quaalude works, too :) #
  • @TheInfovore true that – I’ve harbored quite a lot of resentment towards mr. c for not stepping down in 98. I say 2000 is on him #
  • @TheInfovore and hey, good thing he taught his wife the same strategy – never ever step down, even if it’s for the greater good :( #
  • @TheInfovore dont’ get me wrong, it was completely ridiculous. just saying, in retrospect, he should have taken one for the team #
  • mccain proposes british parliament-style ‘president’s questions’ http://www.slate.com/id/2191691/ #
  • I don’t understand the whole friendfeed thing. does that make me dim? #
  • @Roebot awesome article. thanks. (http://tinyurl.com/6apf88) #
  • @michaelkdolan eMusic.com does allow you to redownload later. and they have some cool stuff. #
  • @michaelkdolan emusic is mostly independents, which is why I love it, but they have added more stuff, eg. the stones back catalog #
  • dear tweeps, anyone want to see MIA tomorrow night? dm me #
  • @jeckman which non-open source conference is that? sounds like I need to submit an abstract! #
  • @fusion94 bah, I’m missing 2 hours of work :) course, it’s also my last day… #

  • @storming I have tried many times to get evolution + exchange to cooperate. never did. cannot sync calendars but read email over imap #
  • @laughingsquid why would I support OLPC? they gave up on the mission of bringing freedom to children in the developing world #
  • happy with my eMusic subscription, but I’d like to hear from subscribers to both eMusic and Magnatune #
  • @silona turns out I will be at #OSCON. let me know if you need a hand with the codathon. Sounds pretty cool. #
  • finishing my last week at Hyperic. Next week I start at CollabNet :) #
  • @fusion94 would like to – thinking I should call ahead #
  • Hyperic is hiring a community manager! spread the word: http://tinyurl.com/5lfxr4 #
  • @Roebot Yar!!!! ’tis the plank for thee!!! ;) #
  • @michaelkdolan I missed your post on Inna’s interview – very nice. I find her refreshing compared to previous IBM’ers #
  • @mjasay it was – I’m going to CollabNet #
  • @fusion94 you got it, man #
  • @rossturk aren’t you on the other side of the world? shouldn’t you be sleeping? #
  • @whurley yes, a little. but let’s be honest – there is a huge need for a service like google health. who else would do it? the fed govt? #
  • @cote that’s funny. a couple of years ago, I got into an argument with an IBMer cuz she didn’t want ‘utility computing’ associated w/ grid #
  • @cote but hey, now that’s it’s all about the cloud, I guess it doesn’t matter anymore :) #
  • @jonathaneunice marketing is “sometimes” pathalogical? how about somewhere between that and “always”? #
  • @amcpherson check @michaelkdolan ‘s twitter stream: http://twitter.com/michaelkdolan/statuses/809844342 #
  • @Silona sweet. I will ask my new employer if they’re interested. #
  • dear twitter: why are you so damn flaky? #
  • @fusion94 lol… silly me, I thought there might be another explanation #
  • @jclingan re: splitting feeds. are you talking about twitter specifically or blogs? #

  • @imurdoch opensolaris on virtualbox (OS X host) would be slick… if I could get networking to work :( #
  • just returned from downtown walk with the kids. 3yo decided to ride on my shoulders just as we started up a long hill. *not* in shape at all #

  • mmm… 100% grade A American breast milk #
  • retweet @delongy "Ugh. Data Portability debate. I really wonder how much of the population outside of SF/NY really cares…" #
  • @delongy you’re right, of course – but everyone *should* care. that’s an underlying premise for #bytesfree (http://www.bytesfree.org) #
  • @webmink re: ODF winning and MSFT submitting – some people need an enemy to motivate them. I’m not entirely innocent there, either #

  • lol… http://www.istwitterdown.com/ – yes! #
  • we’re hitting the 4 week wall wrt our newborn. I’m so freaking tired, and mommy’s exhausted. how did humans make it this far, again? #
  • @lisah true – this is our 2nd time, actually, but we had forgotten how much work the first couple of months are! #
  • @lisah especially with this eating machine… boys are so different #
  • @cdibona true that! it’s probably a good thing #
  • @lisah will do. thanks :) #
  • not sleeping until I fucking write something #
  • @mjasay LOL… you acid-tongued temptress, you! #
  • still waiting for someone to register http://www.isistwitterdowndown.com/ #
  • @fusion94 where the hell did you read that? #
  • @irabinovitch that’s actually to be expected. helps them in recruiting and positions them as IT leader. my question is what took so long. #
  • @irabinovitch after speaking with folks at #osbc, it’s clear that some customers understand how and why to participate in open source proj. #
  • ha… @jetblue has 2x the followers as @southwestair #
  • @monkchips so you’re saying we should all add @scobleizer to our tweets to get followers? sounds like a winner to me ;) #
  • gas is still too cheap: http://www.slate.com/id/2191491/ #

  • @jclingan yes, I was able to get glassfish running. truthfully, i’m only setting it up for a @hyperic demo environment. #
  • @fusion94 thanks for the izpack.org link – that looks pretty nice #
  • Nominate Hyperic HQ in the SourceForge CCA’s! http://tinyurl.com/4c6ceo #
  • @webmink no no no, @monkchips sent *me* the dm which somehow got "lost in the mail" – along with that check he promised me ;) #
  • @Roebot you got it! nominating deki wiki for CCA’s #
  • @fusion94 gotta try that. love the "90 minute IPA" name – futbol reference? #

  • @ravenzachary sounds awesome! can’t wait to see what you do with it #
  • hmm… anyone else using pidgin unable to connect to yahoo IM? #
  • @whiprush really? I saw it #
  • I <3 Russian River Brewing: http://russianriverbrewing.com/wordpress/ – new brewery is online! #
  • ok tweeps, now it can be told, I’m leaving Hyperic #
  • @whiprush one thing at a time :) #
  • scheisse… getting gcc on os x requires a 1GB xcode dl? what an f’d up OS #
  • @webmink UK passport office sounds every bit as "efficient" as the US equivalent. ugh. #
  • @fus‭ion94 you misspelled ‘ubuntu’ there :) #
  • @fusion94 doh! my bad #
  • @cdibona OMG, somebody forgot to take down their april fools prank. I mean, that’s a joke, right??? #
  • @cote well in that case, I guess I have nothing to worry about #
  • @teich although this particular candidate was lame, I have to disagree on your overall sentiment #
  • @teich I’m really tired of this BS ‘yeah it’s 40 hours but you’re really gonna work more than that and screw you if you don’t like it’ #
  • @teich if we were smart we’d unionize but everyone thinks they’re so fucking exceptional #
  • @teich that’s true – it’s a pointless question in an interview and likely to be fudged. #
  • @teich tee hee :) many would agree with you. for me, I think UAW has made any sort of worker organization a political hot potato. that’s … #

  • ok, opensolaris + virtualbox + mac os x working great. now for the glassfish install #
  • @cote my wife is a finance type and can’t live without her numeric keypad. her laptop one was inadequate, so she bought a USB keypad #
  • @emilyswanson meet @sarad who does something at Sun with clouds #
  • retweet @emilyswanson "Looking for insight into the best cloud computing bloggers out there. Who are they? Help!" #
  • @sogrady so true about toddler language. what’s funny is when a couple of them get together conversing in gibberish #
  • @cote ads suck. ‘conversational marketing’ is the buzzword for what you guys already do #
  • opensolaris install is sloooow – in the time it took me to install it and get something running, I dl’d, installed, and ran ubuntu 8.04 #
  • #opensolaris – also, need to make it easier for text-only installs (and running the installed OS without X) #
  • @mjasay true… but I’d *really* like to see opensolaris succeed #

  • @irabinovitch was wondering about that myself – as well as upgrading the bytesfree.org server to hardy #
  • @irabinovitch oh yeah, welcome back :) #
  • quakes drop home game to crew in gut-wrenching loss. 3yo had a blast, though. #
  • @roebot with Jackie, our 3yo, potty training was almost entirely uneventful. our approach was ‘whenever she’s ready she’ll tell us’ #
