  • 00:34 Does the VP choice (either party) matter to you? Vote here: tinyurl.com/59trsk #
  • 00:58 RT @wilsongonewild: All of the #Gnomedex video links are on this dude’s page in order! poprl.com/Rp #
  • 01:25 @GeoffLiving Oh, wow … we should have talked motorcycles at #gnomedex! ;-) But I don’t think I’d want to ride in DC – very crazy drivers! #

  • 10:40 Headed to the Apple store …. fingers crossed. #
  • 13:49 Hmm. Sent a text report. Not in archive? Apple gave me new power brick; fingers crossed that’s all that’s wrong … #
  • 13:53 @daveschappell has good advice to @daemonp for personal twitter use … but some of us also use twitter for inbound news feed #
  • 17:33 @GeoffLiving Ah … too many people running red lights! Which Duc do you have? I have a Y2K M900. #
  • 17:35 RT @Digidave: Sun NYT: @digidave gets $340K to rethink journalism. Mon NYT: CNN spends $100K for single camera shot at #DNC08. See problem? #
  • 17:36 @jdlasica Try TweetDeck! It will set you free. ;-) #
  • 19:04 Apple store gave me new power brick for MBP. If still gets overly hot, will do more diagnostics. Think video weirdness was quirk. #
  • 19:58 MBP seems to be happy with new power brick — both are running much cooler. And FF is using less CPU. Huh? What’s up with that? #

  • 13:34 And now it’s stopped. Average rainfall today (SeaTac): 0.052 inches. We’re already past that. Grrrrr. #
  • 13:36 My MacBookPro AC/DC brick is too hot too touch. So is the back of the laptop, which wasn’t sitting on anything (standing on its side) #
  • 13:37 This doesn’t feel/sound good to me. Could this kind of heat have fried the HD that I just had to replace? #
  • 13:37 @bmw But Brian, you aren’t having a BBQ today. We are. :-/ (You’re invited, btw!) #
  • 14:53 LOL! Ok, I see you ‘re in the office! #

  • 09:54 If you are a news source, if you make money, can you still be a "blog"? It’s journalism, not blogging. (paraphrase) #gnomedex #
  • 09:55 Jason – I’ve always considered it the architecture, not the product. Yes! #gnomedeix #
  • 10:04 @rrabago you’re welcome! it’s a lovely day — sad to be inside but conversation at #gnomedex on "blogging" is good. #
  • 10:07 @leelefever re Biden … pls see (shameless self-promotion) bit.ly/obama_biden #
  • 10:08 @hrheingold Thanks, Harold. Retweet: Howard’s syllabus collection delicious.com/hrheingold/syllabi #
  • 10:10 @brady re Biden … shameless self-promotion (LOL!) bit.ly/obama_biden … you gave them your cellphone number? I asked for email. #
  • 10:11 @leelefever Where did you dance with Matt?!? In Seattle on Friday??? #
  • 10:13 Retweet @kk: quoting Derek Miller "The most inspiring speakers at #Gnomedex have a phrase in common: "…so I tried an experiment." ;) #
  • 10:21 "Blogging. It’s a breath mint and a candy mint." Tom Novak … #gnomedex #
  • 10:25 #gnomedex audience is really saying "bloggers" (for some def.) are "journalists" but audience doesnt seem to know what jrl (eg ethics) *IS* #
  • 10:27 @norrinradd Heck, no! LOTS of people sell ads. Chris sells ads. But blogging to try go get traffic is as wrong as belief that …. #
  • 10:28 @norrinradd … …. corporations exist to make profits! No. If a corporation has good product or service, profits will *follow*. #gnomedex #
  • 10:30 Retweet @AndruEdwards: @sbspalding – produce, produce, produce, produce or go home. #
  • 10:58 An anthropological introduction to YouTube presented at the Library of Congress 23 June 2008. bit.ly/ut via @ewanmcintosh #
  • 11:02 Eve Maler talking about terms of use annoyances. Reminds me that Adobe now requires phone, address in your Adobe profile. Bad. #gnomedex #
  • 11:16 bit.ly/keg_map 3pm on, regardless of weather. We have tents! #
  • 11:18 that last tweet was an oops! (recall … LOL!) #
  • 11:24 @westseattleblog agreed. but blogging != journalism. discussion had issues from jrl – esp ethics, adv/ed conflict, purpose ($ v content) #
  • 11:25 @westseattleblog link to New Pamphleteers placeblogger convo? #
  • 11:27 @wnalyd Disagree. It’s possible to start a blog by thinking first about how to grow traffic and not have the result be a "link blog." #
  • 11:28 @wnalyd And a link blog may not have its first goal be monetization. #
  • 11:30 Eve now talking about OpenID et al. Problem w/ DoB as field. Second #gnomedex session dealing with privacy (yesterday Danny Sullivan). #
  • 11:37 @talkr Where is the #gnomedex rating system? #
  • 12:25 @bmw I’m freezing, too! #
  • 12:29 @talkr #Maler [5] [timely, impt, need to really emphasize how other countries have more consumer protection of data than US] #gnomedex #
  • 12:30 Aedona guys from UW are *cool*! #gnomedex #
  • 12:31 Issues raised by Adeona and XML girl are also related to electronic voting (security, privacy). #gnomedex #
  • 13:25 @commentisfree Your Melissa McEwan URL is Bad. www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2008/aug/23/joebiden.barackobama #
  • 14:35 "Your L.R. needs a reboot." boxee.tv/ … throw out the TIvo, cable and satellite; coming to Mac & Linux real soon now! #gnomedex #
  • 14:41 @penmachine Thank you!! #
  • 14:49 @wnalyd Not saying "monetization" is bad thing. Issues about ethics, ad/editorial, etc are not "new" issues but *are* jrl issues. #gnomedex #
  • 15:51 Maxwell on @MarsRover. Every NASA spacecraft is considered a military weapon. =:-0 Makes it hard to open communication. #gnomedex (RT) #
  • 15:54 @MarsRoverDriver Shows us earth as seen from Mars. A Geek w/great communication skills! Understands audience. Standing ovation! #gnomedex #
  • 15:59 @MarsRoverDriver reminds us to write our Congressman … they fund NASA. Related: bit.ly/mars #
  • 17:01 @moniguzman BBQ Sunday 3 pm until … bit.ly/keg_map #
  • 17:31 @talkr guzman 5 #
  • 17:31 @talkr kolko 5 #
  • 20:43 @jeremywright LOL! I got a fail whale *several* times during #gnomedex! #
  • 20:45 @penmachine Derek … these are *great*! Takes me back to photoJrl class as an undergrad. :-) Love the sketches — for the "touch" and info. #

  • 14:47 @westseattleblog you’re welcome. i’m guessing the ustream.tv clip is archived but haven’t checked. connectivity is … sporadic. #gnomedex #
  • 15:09 @stumax mixed feelings about schools (K-12, university) focusing on "business skills" . Critical thinking skills more impt. IMO. #gnomedex #

  • 15:42 everyone starts using technology to easily tap networks for their "cause" (not intended in negative sense) another form of info overload? #
