  1. @mattlangtree @xeeton Some good ideas there. Not too keen on the open briefcase: nice on a website but weird shape for an icon. 3:42 PM Jan 15th via Twitter for iPhone in reply to mattlangtree
  2. @mattlangtree I can get replacement for scratched iPhone camera lens for $3 on eBay, 10 min install. Maybe they have home buttons too? 2:34 PM Jan 11th via Echofon in reply to mattlangtree
  3. @iAWriter does Writer support Lion's auto-save system? I don't wanna spend 10 bucks, then find out it doesn't have auto-save. 4:58 PM Dec 5th, 2011 via web
  4. @mattlangtree @fdeschenes yeah, I re-wrote that so I could unlicense it. That's why no line numbers or CSS/JavaScript syntax colors 6:04 PM Nov 18th, 2011 via Twitter for iPhone in reply to mattlangtree
  5. @fdeschenes @mattlangtree My code editor, Dux, is now on github. This is a prerelease, it may eat your code. github.com/abhibeckert/dux 12:53 PM Nov 18th, 2011 via Twitter for iPhone in reply to fdeschenes

  9. @asymco I wonder if smartphones are already at saturation point among some age/income groups. Seems that way from what I see on the street 11:48 PM Sep 2nd, 2011 via Twitter for iPhone in reply to asymco
  10. @asymco I see lots of iPhones, occasionally android, and very rarely a non-smartphone, among friends and friends of friends. 11:48 PM Sep 2nd, 2011 via Twitter for iPhone in reply to asymco
  11. @asymco is there any phone marketshare data broken down by demographics? The data you have is way out among people I meet day to day 10:04 PM Sep 2nd, 2011 via Twitter for iPhone
  12. @mattlangtree I blame Dan Bengamin's new daughter. Whole of @5by5 has been a bit out of sorts while he's gone 9:56 PM Sep 2nd, 2011 via Twitter for iPhone in reply to mattlangtree
  13. @csswizardry if a designer can't learn to code awesome fairly quickly after some training, we fire them. It's not that hard. 3:31 PM Sep 2nd, 2011 via Twitter for iPhone in reply to csswizardry

  17. @AliceLikesBob @siracusa Ruby is my favorite language, but even I don't like MacRuby. Cocoa is designed for Obj-C's named message arguments. 11:11 AM Jul 24th, 2011 via Twitter for iPhone in reply to AliceLikesBob
