    • 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 #

    • @webmink UK passport office sounds every bit as "efficient" as the US equivalent. ugh. #
    • @fus‭ion94 you misspelled ‘ubuntu’ there πŸ™‚ #
    • @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 πŸ™‚ many would agree with you. for me, I think UAW has made any sort of worker organization a political hot potato. that’s … #

    • 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 #

  • Yet another reason not to drive

    As if there weren’t enough already, including skyrocketing gas prices and pollution, now we can add “might get shot” to the list.See this latest incident in San Francisco. It’s getting *scary* out there.
  • Return of the Quakes – Home Opener vs. Chicago

    It’s been almost 3 years since I last saw the earthquakes play live – and now we’ll get that chance again. Unfortunately, it just had to coincide with Lug Radio Live, which I must attend for BytesFree.org.This Saturday the Quakes take on the Fire in the same big-ass stadium in the east bay where the Raiders and A’s play. What is it, again? Oh yeah, the coliseum.So while I’ll have to miss it, *you* can still go, and you should. Unfortunately, I’ve already given away my tickets to some other lucky individual, so you’ll have to get yours elsewhere πŸ˜‰
