Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-02-21

  • Sleep Cycle (iPhone) is one of the coolest apps I've downloaded. Here's my sleep last night. http://twitpic.com/13geh4 #
  • It uses your phone's accelerometer to measure your sleep (movement). I woke up briefly around midnight, and slept really soundly. #
  • I wish the other Jonathan Lane living in New York would stop giving out my e-mail address. Nice car insurance quote…. #
  • Damn, the bug I was going to report has already been reported… and fixed (in the next beta release). #slowbetatester #
  • RT @dhh: All the wrong reasons for Stack Overflow's VC chase: http://bit.ly/a9IAYj (Really have to agree with @dhh on this one…) #
  • Freaking amazing day. Sunny and beautiful. http://gdzl.la/7DwN8P #
  • ______ version 4 from _____ inc. is a beautiful and excellent piece of software. Except for a few minor bugs, it's a work of art. #
  • Firefox personas is pretty cool. Now if they could just make the browser fast and not consume all of my machine's resources, I'd use it. #
  • Boy I'm getting curmudgeonly. Instead of making form fields inactive, I'm actually considering throwing in a vault door slamming/ajax seq. #
  • I used to think dealing with data from the Registrar's office was bad. It's nothing compared to RETS…. #
  • RETS has been p0wned #

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-02-14

  • Wow, can't believe that site validated on the first run. Didn't have to tweak any code. #
  • Just completed a 3.04 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/bxQVC3 #RunKeeper #
  • Just completed a 42.31 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/bCbSMJ #RunKeeper #
  • That last one is false due to a GPS lock on issue. Going to see if I can edit it… #
  • Yup, 3.61 km run with @runkeeper. Would be nice if @runkeeper had a little intelligence in the form of "nobody can run 40 km/min" #
  • Vegan chocolate hazelnut biscotti in the oven. #cantwait #
  • I think Flash's downfall is going to be with how stupid ActionScript is getting. You need like 6 lines of code to make a button work. #
  • Of course changing that link in the footer would have completely thrown off the layout in IE. How stupid of me not to assume that! #
  • New idea for @apphelpme #
  • I've really got to call a moratorium on registering domains. Up to 29 now, I think #
  • I'm not allowed to say anything about it, but this beta software is really impressive. Well done unnamed company. #
  • Trying to figure out if this web host is seriously just going to let my sites be offline until midnight CST (DB problems) #
  • Is there some sort of sporting event taking place in Vancouver? #

  • Why is #shaw unable to put outage info online? Or make a useful web site in any way for that matter? #

  • RT @bcbusiness: Cool blog for those of you that feel it's the surface that matters most: http://lovelypackage.com/ #
  • Wow, 40 lines of CSS code to style a "Web site produced by" link in the footer of this site. #isthatarecord #thesedevelopersarelame #
  • Does iBooks support PDF, so that I can read my existing collection of eBooks? #lazyweb #
  • RT @timescolonist: Former premier Bill Vander Zalm gets official nod for anti-HST petition. http://bit.ly/bbyuCm #
  • I'd just like to let all of my friends in Alberta know that the daffodils are starting to flower now. #dontmissthoseprairiewinters #
  • Dude, I'm totally going to the #victoriateafestival next weekend. #
