  1. @MichelleRobbins @elisabethos @pamelaparker @monicawright - Oh I did. You were laughing then but not this week when I have supplies for you!
  2. @BeckyNaylor - Ha! So true.
  3. @jcolman - well it ranks 3rd right now for [rei robots.txt]. I can understand that you likely want to be #1. ;)
  4. @g1smd - My understanding is that this is a bug and is missing for lots of people (maybe everyone even).
  5. @BeckyNaylor - Shhh. Not everyone knows about that chapter! ;)
  6. Hee! RT @jaredg one persons lingo is another's confusion. I thought "Penguin Penalty" would be about Linux or climate change destroying ice.
  7. @ericpeters - Sigh. Exactly right.
  8. Chrome is really fast. Until it's really slow. And convinces your entire computer to join its slothful holiday.
  9. @jillwhalen - Google suggested timeanddate.com, which not only told me the day and date, but used geotargeting to tell me the time.
  10. @brian_henderson - Thank you! Next time, I can ask Twitter instead of Google!
  11. Who else searches for "what day is it today?" Just me, then?
  12. @simleon - Yes, I'll have a few with me. Only 10GBP. Grab me at the tech questions session.
  13. @kenjansen - Thank you!
  14. @shellen - I AM SO IN
  15. @kenjansen - Just a couple of weeks ago - you can get it on Amazon! ;)
  16. @shellen - Oh great. Now you're going to start a bidding war. I thought I was the only one who knew that was available!
