Twitter Updates for 2008-01-23

@timelliott – the world is at least 1 magnitude better. Bad news just travels faster and is easier to find. #
@tom_elko – I’m technically not in Mpls, so I can’t. 🙂 #
@tom_elko – at least, not as a primary. Might be worth getting a roaming account. #

"creating jobs for blacksmiths" wow – so poignant on why MI needs a new direction. cullect/53: http://culld.us/566093 #
fixed a bunch of bugs in @cullect. now, time for bed. #
problem w/ a month of paternity leave: I have no idea where my note cards or pens are. #
rsync-ing w/ the tags -aE was erroring out, switching to -rltv and everything works fine. hmmm. #

ok. this proves it – football needs snow to be interesting. bitter cold just don’t do it for me. #
@swirlspice – we’re Tivo-ing Amazing Race and catch it after the football game. #
wishes http://fawnt.com/fonts/ had an RSS feed w/ enclosures. #
thinks he’s a ‘foul weather fan’ of the Packers. Maybe even a ‘fowl weather fan’. Football + migrating ducks could be interesting. #
is glad he’s on this side of the WI border right now. #
asks: Why isn’t TiVo just a USB stick yet? Just a fat flash drive w/ wifi & co-ax/hdmi. My Series 2 box is fugly. Series 3 isn’t any better. #
@jayamorgan, yes, right now TiVo = Palm, I’d sure like either of those companies to make me excited about them again. #
How many of you could have picked this list blind-folded….6mn ago :p cullect/1: http://culld.us/551830 #
@misc, tell me more about your podcatcher thoughts. The more I think about current state, I’m disappointed. We went down the wrong path. #
@pfhyper – re:links – that’s why 1 reason @cullect auto-expands shortened urls. #
@pfhyper – yes, yes CL has feeds. #
@Element_guy, press pot + microwaved water has been my routine for the past week. Not sure the water gets hot enough, but more flavorful. #
uncov’s report of the Crunchies makes me happy & sad. cullect/1: http://culld.us/564437 #
@jamuraa & @pfhyper – I went off on hashtags a while ago. not sold on their usefulness #

just looked at flickrfan.org. Decided it’s not what I’m looking for. I want the same thing….just an arbitrary RSS feed, not tied to flickr #
wait, I was thinking too hard. iPhoto -> ‘Subscribe to Photocast’ . Then flip over to Front Row and let it ride. Now to change the music. #
all these cold weather football games might make me not only a football fan, but a Packer fan as well. No, I don’t want to talk about Faurve #
@arik reminds us – making To-Do Lists isn’t doing To-Dos cullect/5: http://culld.us/552793 #

http://cullect.com/65 proves that LOLcats is funnier when it’s in someone else’s reading list. 🙂 #
reading the FeedBurner API finding it more inspiring than the FaceBook API. #
-13F, first day of swimming lessons for the boy. #

@geniodiabolico – from articles I already have, and anything that comes in on going. @cullect gets new feeds from new subscriptions. #
Did you know @cullect has a built-in url shortener (a la tinyurl)? – http://culld.us, an example: http://culld.us/540074 #
@DeRushaJ, I agree. It’d be great if the response was more approachable, but, we all (you, me, big brands) have our quirks. #
@DeRushaJ – I watched the theater price Good Question tonight. The question was good. Was there an answer? #
is watching the mercury drop. down 3 degrees F since I work up. Fun! #

@geniodiabolico, great post. #
@geniodiabolico, I’ve amused myself by saying, "advertisers, audience, publication, remove 1 an you’ve got something interesting." #
@brownorama – and in exactly the same way. #

is pretty sure ‘looming recession’ doesn’t actually exist. Like predicting the weather 6 mnths out. Sure, winters are colder than summers. #
@cullect stat-o-the-day: 703 recommendations, 4140 feeds, 497086 items #
couldn’t sleep, got outta bed just to buy a domain name for a crazy @cullect spinoff idea. #
@jamuraa – yes, breaking is helpful. Can you elaborate on what happened? I don’t see anything odd in the logs. #
is re-installing Acrobat Reader. This isn’t improving my impression of Adobe. #
@fred_beecher – I completely agree. Unfortunately, a couple of vendors I have don’t feel the same. #
@jamuraa – ok. I got a peak at the issue you were having, filed the bug report and killed all the offenders. #

caught up in @cullect after being in under the weather yesterday. Wow, that went quick. #
@jamuraa – that’s the same as asking for an FM receiver in an iPod. #
spoooooky what I wrote almost 2 years to the date: http://tinyurl.com/24q7a8 #

@misc, I mis-spoke, my problem w/ feed reader is they they’re _just_ readers – having no (or very limited) notion of what I want to do next. #
New blog post: Putting the ‘Fish’ in AmigoFish http://tinyurl.com/yp7auq #
New blog post: The Podcast is the Ad http://tinyurl.com/28c9hj #
@laughingsquid – might I direct your attention to http://cullect.com ? A few people have found it quite nice for RSS inbox mgmnt. 🙂 #
@jwynia – thanks for the pointer to EEE pc’s they look pretty close. #
@timelliott, I completely agree. ADM don’t come natural to me. #
just re-wrote http://cullect.com/about . Two questions: 1. Does it make sense? 2. Is it accurate? #
